Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)

Can I use the 3500/94M without a TDI module?No. The 3500/22 TDI is required. It provides the data interface for waveform and transient display.
What is the difference between the monitor module and I/O module?Monitor module holds the display interface and front ports. I/O module handles rear connections and system communication. Both occupy one slot each.
Is the touch screen functional with all 3500 software?Yes, the resistive touch works with 3500 operator display software. Use the RS232 port for touch data.
My control room is cold. Can the display start at -10°C?The Advantech display requires minimum 0°C for reliable startup. Below that, use a heated enclosure.
Which KVM extender options fit this model?This part (05‑00‑00) comes with no KVM cables. You can order a KVM extender separately. Ensure transmitter is in safe area.
Does the 3500/94M support Modbus or other protocols?No, it is a dedicated VGA display. It shows data from the 3500 monitoring system but does not convert protocols.

Selection & Experience Tips

For hazardous locations, verify KVM receiver approval (Class I Div 2). The display itself is not certified for Zone 0/1.
If you need a larger viewing distance, consider adding a KVM extender to place the display farther from the rack.
Always match firmware versions: older TDI firmware may not communicate with new 3500/94M modules.
For panel mount instead of rack mount, order the correct display variant; this model is 19‑inch rack mount.
