Temperature sensor¶

You can add a temperature sensor to your SOMANET Circulo.

Synapticon has successfully tested PT1000 and KTY84-130. PT100 will also work but be aware that its low resistance will result in a low accuracy so this type can’t be recommended.

In case you want to use other sensors, such as NTC, please contact support@synapticon.com.

Depending on the type of temperature sensor, different resistors in the servo drive need to be activated. This is done internally with a multiplexer. The desired value can be selected via software through object 0x2038 subindex 3.
