The FS1101 on-wall transducer registers the temperature and relative humidity of the ambient air and converts this measured value into a digital output signal.
The humidity measuring device has a heating function to protect the sensor at high humidity 95...99% r.h.. If the relative humidity exceeds the threshold value set ex-works for more than 10 minutes the heating function is activated. The sensor is heated for a limited time and thus dried and protected against condensation. During the heating and the subsequent temperature balancing phase the output signal is kept stable at the last measured value before the heating function was triggered.
The humidity and temperature sensor is very well protected against contamination by a screwable sintered filter and can, if required, be finely calibrated in the register using an offset value.
As special equipment a potential-free alternating contact and/or a backlit display are available The contents of the display can be rotated in steps of 90° by using a command.
As special functions a series of defined measured values from other bus-participants (also cross-manufacturers) can be shown in the display. To display measured values from other bus-participants these are entered into the corresponding register by the bus-Master. The optional alternating contact can be configurated for measured values from other bus-participants.
The configuration of address, transmission mode/speed, terminating resistor and master/slave function of the bus-devices can easily be done using the innovative DIP switch technology. Thus devices can quickly and easily integrated into the system and later parameterised via the master.
The bus-devices can even be reset to the works settings during operation of the master. Thus the basic functionality of the device is recreated in a matter of seconds. This can be necessary in the event of incorrect parameterisations of, e.g. offset, switching threshold, display modes etc..
By means of the FS master/slave topology autarkic nodes without additional SPS master can be installed within the device series. Hereby a bus-device assumes the master function in the node. This requests the measured values from other bus-participants, automatically enters these into the corresponding register and shows them in the internal display. Furthermore the master can evaluate and operate additional actuators in the device series (analogue in- and outputs, relay station).
