Overview
The Advantech ADAM-4017+ is an 8-channel 16-bit analog input module on RS-485, accepting voltage (±150 mV to ±10 V) or current (0/4–20 mA) per channel with individual range configuration, and speaking Modbus RTU or the ADAM ASCII protocol. It is the standard way to bring 4–20 mA transmitter signals into a SCADA or data logger over a serial bus, with 3,000 V DC isolation and a burn-out detection on current ranges. Modules are configured with the ADAM utility or by Modbus commands and daisy-chained on RS-485 up to 1.2 km; the ADAM-4000 family includes digital I/O, RTD/TC inputs, analog outputs and RS-485 repeaters.
Key features
- 8 differential analog inputs, 16-bit; ±150 mV, ±500 mV, ±1 V, ±5 V, ±10 V, 0/4–20 mA per channel
- Modbus RTU and ADAM ASCII protocol; RS-485 up to 115.2 kbps, 1.2 km
- Isolation 3,000 V DC; burn-out detection; sampling 10 Hz total
- Configurable by ADAM utility or Modbus; watchdog timer
- 10–30 V DC; -10…+70 °C; DIN rail or panel
Typical applications
- Reading 4–20 mA transmitters into SCADA over RS-485
- Tank-farm and pump-station telemetry
- Energy and environmental monitoring
- Retrofit of analog signals into PLC-less data loggers

Frequently asked questions
Do I need a 250 Ω resistor for 4–20 mA?
No. The ADAM-4017+ has built-in current ranges selected by jumper and software, so transmitters connect directly.
How many modules can share one RS-485 line?
Up to 32 without a repeater (256 with ADAM-4510 repeaters), each with its own Modbus address, over cable runs up to 1.2 km.
Is the ADAM-4017+ available from stock, and what is the lead time?
ADAM-4000 modules are stocked in Vietnam; delivery typically 1–5 days. We confirm with the quotation.
