Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

1. What is the primary function of the 3500/25 TDI module?

   The TDI acts as the system controller and data interface for System 1® software in the Bently Nevada 3500 system.

2. Is the 3500/25 module compatible with other 3500 rack modules?

   Yes, it is fully compatible with all 3500 series monitoring modules.

3. Does this module support transient data recording?

   Yes, it supports both static and transient data for comprehensive condition monitoring.

4. Can it be used in redundant configurations?

   Absolutely. The module supports dual TDI configurations for redundancy and reliability.

5. What is the communication protocol used by the TDI?

   It communicates via Ethernet using Modbus TCP/IP and interfaces with System 1® software.

6. What kind of data can System 1® access through the TDI?

   System 1® can access static data, transient data, alarms, and configuration settings.

7. Is the 3500/25 suitable for use in hazardous locations?

   Yes, the module is certified for use in hazardous areas with ATEX, CSA, and IECEx approvals.

8. What firmware versions are supported by the 3500/25 TDI?

   The TDI supports the latest firmware releases compatible with the 3500 system.

9. How is power supplied to the TDI module?

   The module receives power through the 3500 rack’s power distribution system.

10. What happens if the TDI module fails?

    In redundant configurations, the secondary TDI takes over seamlessly; in single setups, the system will alarm, but protection continues independently.
