IMT Solar Irradiance Sensor Si-RS485TC-2T

This Enapter Device Blueprint integrates IMT Solar Si-RS485TC-2T - irradiance sensor with ModBus RTU over RS-485 communication interface optimized for Arrakis MK4 IPC.

Configuring RS485 Ports of Arrakis MK4

Crowcon Xgard Bright works over RS-485 port. Arrakis MK4 have universal ports which needs to be configured in BIOS of the IPC to required mode.

1. Reboot IPC and press Del button on the keyboard to enter BIOS setup utility.

2. Navigate to Advanced -> SIO F81804.

   

3. Select the port you would like to use for connection of gas sensor. UART Port 1 (ttyS0) or UART Port 2 (ttyS1).

   

4. Set Peripheral Type to RS485 and press F10 on keyboard to save and exit configuration
