FAQ

Q1: What is the key difference between the 3500/61 and the 3500/60 module?

A1: The 3500/61 module provides recorder outputs for each of its six channels, while the 3500/60 does not.

Q2: What types of temperature inputs does the 3500/61 module accept?

A2: It accepts both Resistance Temperature Detector (RTD) and Thermocouple (TC) temperature inputs.

Q3: How many monitoring channels does this module have?

A3: It provides six independent channels for temperature monitoring and alarm comparison.

Q4: Can this module be used in a redundant system configuration?

A4: Yes, it is suitable for Triple Modular Redundant (TMR) configurations when installed in adjacent groups of three.

Q5: What is required to program the module for specific sensor types?

A5: The module is programmed using the 3500 Rack Configuration Software to select RTD or TC measurement modes and set alarm setpoints.
