3.3 ADAM-4013 RTD Module
The ADAM-4013 RTD Input Module supports one Pt or Ni RTD
input channel for temperature measurement. This module can accept
RTD sensors with two, three, or four wires. The module offers signal
conditioning, A/D conversion, ranging, and RS-485 digital
communication functions. It protects your equipment from power
surges at the ground terminal by providing opto-isolation of the A/D
input and up to 3000 VDC transformer based isolation.

Accepts:
- Input from platinum and nickel RTDs
Depending on the module’s configuration setting, it can forward the
data to the host computer in one of the following formats:
- Engineering units (°C)
- Percent of full-scale range (FSR)
- Two’s complement hexadecimal
