Connecting a RS485 DO sensor

[JoaoCotter]

Hi everyone,

I would like to know if it is possible to connect an optical Dissolved Oxygen sensor (RS485 type) to Profilux 4.
If so, how can it be done?
Thank you!

Hello,

No. Sorry.

Thank you Gaël!
Optical DO sensors are the most reliable and that is what I need to use.
What is the type of DO sensor from GHL?
What is the RS485 extension card for? Doesn’t it allow to connect this type of sensors?
I’m using a permanent multiparameter system that uses RS485 MODBUS communication protocol. Can I connect it to Profilux 4 to transfer real time data from my DO sensor?
Thank you!

GHL's DO sensor type is amperometric (Clark).
The RS485 card is a communication card for the GHL Control Center/ ProfiLux Control software only. It does not allow communication with a third-party device.
I'll pass on your comments to our development department regarding Optical DO sensors.
