Module Features
Purpose and description of the module
- The SDM-6TE module allows you to measure the temperature with attached popular sensor Pt100, Pt500, Pt1000, Ni100, KTY81-110, NTC (Carel) and thermocouple (type J, K, T, N, S, R, B). In addition, it is possible to measure voltages in the range 256mV (10μV resolution) and to 2048mV (100μV resolution) as well as the measurement of resistance to 8kΩ.
- The device has a set of six inputs for the temperature measurement. It is possible to 2- or 3-wire measurement of sensors Pt100, Ni100, Pt500, Pt1000 and 2-wire measurement thermocouples and other sensors. In addition, the module is equipped with 2 configurable digital outputs (alarms).
- Values are read via RS485 (Modbus), so we can easily integrate the module with popular PLCs, HMI or PC equipped with the appropriate adapter.
- This module is connected to the RS485 bus with twisted-pair wire. Communication is via MODBUS RTU or MODBUS ASCII. The use of 32-bit ARM core processor provides fast processing and quick communication. The baud rate is configurable from 2400 to 115200.
- The module is designed for mounting on a DIN rail in accordance with DIN EN 5002.
- The module is equipped with a set of LEDs used to indicate the status of inputs and outputs useful for diagnostic purposes and helping to find errors.
- Module configuration is done via USB by using a dedicated computer program. You can also change the parameters using the MODBUS protocol.

Dimensions of the product
Look and dimensions of the module are shown below. The module is mounted
directly to the rail in the DIN industry standard. Power connectors,
communication and IOs are at the bottom and top of the module. USB connector
configuration and indicators located on the front of the module.
Communication configuration
Grounding and shielding
In most cases, IO modules will be installed in an enclosure along with other
devices which generate electromagnetic radiation. Examples of these devices
are relays and contactors, transformers, motor controllers etc. This
electromagnetic radiation can induce electrical noise into both power and
signal lines, as well as direct radiation into the module causing negative
effects on the system. Appropriate grounding, shielding and other protective
steps should be taken at the installation stage to prevent these effects.
These protective steps include control cabinet grounding, module grounding,
cable shield grounding, protective elements for electromagnetic switching
devices, correct wiring as well as consideration of cable types and their
cross sections.
Network Termination
- Transmission line effects often present a problem on data communication networks.
- These problems include reflections and signal attenuation.
- To eliminate the presence of reflections from the end of the cable, the cable must be terminated at both ends with a resistor across the line equal to its characteristic impedance. Both ends must be terminated since the direction of propagation is bidirectional. In the case of an RS485 twisted pair cable this termination is typically 120 Ω.
Setting Module Address in RS485 Modbus Network
- The following table shows how to set switch to determine the address of the module.
- The module address is set with the switches in the range of 0 to 127. Addresses From 128 to 255 can by set via RS485 or USB.
Switch| Adress
---|---
SW1| +1
SW2| +2
SW3| +4
SW4| +8
SW5| +16
SW6| +32
SW7| +64 - Ex. if switches 1, 3 and 5 are on than module addres is: Address = 1 + 4 + 16 = 21
Types of Modbus Registers
There are 4 types of variables available in the module
Type| Beginning adress| Variable| Access| Modbus

Communication settings
The data stored in the modules memory are in 16-bit registers. Access to registers is via MODBUS RTU or MODBUS ASCII.
- Default settings

- To restore the default configuration:
- turn off the power
- turn on the switch SW8
- turn on the power
- when power and communication LED start blinking alternately than turn off the switch SW8
- Caution! After restoring the default configuration all values stored in the registers will be cleared as well.

Configuration software
- Modbus Configurator is software that is designed to set the module registers responsible for communication over Modbus network as well as to read and write the current value of other registers of the module. This program can be a convenient way to test the system as well as to observe real-time changes in the registers.
- Communication with the module is done via the USB cable. The module does not require any drivers.
Configurator is a universal program, whereby it is possible to configure all available modules.
