  We studied the effects of the absolute neutrino mass scale in the scotogenic
radiative seesaw model. From a scan over the parameter space of this model, a
linear relation between the absolute neutrino mass and the dark sector-Higgs
coupling $\lambda_5= 3.1\times10^{-9}\ m_{\nu_e}/$eV has been established. With
the projected sensitivity of the KATRIN experiment nearing cosmologically
favored values, a neutrino mass measurement would fix the value of $\lambda_5$.
Subsequent correlations between the DM mass and the Yukawa coupling between DM
and the SM leptons can probe the fermion DM parameter space, when lepton flavor
violation constraints are also considered. The results are independent of the
neutrino mass hierarchy and the CP phase.
