DATASHEET EXTERNAL TEMPERATURE SENSOR, Quick Start Guide
Overview
The temperature sensor, with active current and voltage output, is used to measure the temperature in outdoor areas or damp/cold rooms. For this purpose, 4 selectable temperature ranges (-50°C…+50°C; 0°C…+50°C; 0°C…+100°C;0°C…+160°C) are available. The connection is made to the expansion module (Ethernet) ORDER-CODE: KIO7017 with analog inputs.

Connection example with 2 temperature sensors (KESAN1 or KESAN2) on extension module KIO7017 with power supply via PoE splitter (24VDC)
The voltage output of the PoE splitter supplies both the KIO7017 module and the two KESAN1/2 sensors with voltage. Note the performance data of the PoE splitter (min. PoE Class 3) and its general operation. We recommend to set 24VDC as output voltage at the PoE splitter if possible.
Note that this is an example of a simple connection variant and other variants are possible. Thus, power supplies, DC/DC converters, etc. can be used instead of the PoE splitter. For further details refer to the wiring options of the expansion module KIO7017. IMPORTANT! Electrical engineering expertise is required for the connection and proper installation of the entire system!
Configuration with KentixONE
The configuration is done via web browser (HTTPS) using the already integrated KentixONE software. Depending on the operating mode (Main or Satellite) of the device, the configuration takes place on the device itself (operating mode: Main), or on a central instance such as the SiteManager or AlarmManager (operating mode: Satellite).
All information about the software is available in the KentixONE section and the related documentation.
Before you start the configuration, make sure that the software is up to date on all network-enabled Kentix devices. The version status must be the same on all devices.
