Hello,
I am using an EMS-2 and RDAC-XF connected via CAN. Delivered with the EMS-2 was a sensor, I guess it is a LM335 temperature sensor (has two wires red and green). I think it is a good idea to use it as OAT sensor. So I connect it to RDAC-XF AUX1 and ground as shown in manual for RDAC-XF see pic1. At the EMS-2 I try to configure the Analog channel 1 as shown in pic2. But it doesn't work.
For my understanding, normally I need to connect the LM335 via 3 wires shown in pic3.
What is my mistake?
Thanks for support,
Heinz
The LM335 can connect to the RDAC - Green for ground and red for signal. Connect it to AUX1 if you want to use analog channel 3 or AUX2 for analog channel 4. Turn on the AUX 1 or AUX 2 PU switch on the RDAC.
