Split Analog Outputs...
Output Response Time:
Varies with input module installed. Refer to your uB
module response time specification and add 7ms to that value for the output
response time with module mounted on this carrier. For example, with a uB41
input module (2ms) installed, the maximum time measured for the output signal to
reach 98% of its transition for a step change in the input while driving the current
output to a 500Ω load
is 9ms.
AUX Voltage Output
The local AUX voltage output at TB5-1 is equivalent to that produced by the
microBlox® module itself when plugged into this carrier. Its signal return COM at
TB5-2 is common to the USB signal ground, which may be common to earth ground
of the host PC if not using a USB isolator to make a USB connection to this carrier.
Re-transmitted from module.
Voltage Range (AUX):
0-5V, ±5V, 1-5V, equivalent to the microBlox® module
voltage output, but accessed at this carrier
’s
AUX voltage output terminals TB5-1,2.
Refer to module specifications.
Voltage Load:
5V into 1KΩ minimum, or 5mA Maximum.
Accuracy:
±0.05% of span typical (from module). Refer to your module
specifications for details.
Splitter Controls
LED Indicators
Channel PWR (Green)
–
Channel Green ON indicates power is applied to carrier
and the plugged-in uB module is operating normally (LED sourced from module).
Channel BLE (Blue)
–
Channel Blue ON indicates Linking to channel is enabled for
uBxx-B Bluetooth wireless technology enabled models (via the BLE DIP switch of
the channel). This LED is sourced from module. Note that splitter functionality
cannot be wirelessly configured via Bluetooth wireless technology.
Output Fault LED Indicators (Orange, Each Output, FLT1 & FLT2) -
Orange FLT LED
per output channel. ON indicates current output is open circuit, or the
corresponding current output load resistance is too high to drive accurate current
to it
(load resistance is greater than 550Ω).
ON may also indicate over-temperature
if the output driver die temperature has exceeded 142°C.
BLE DIP Switch
(Splitter Functionality cannot be
setup wirelessly)
Set this DIP switch to ON (left) to allow Bluetooth wireless technology linking to
uBxx-B models plugged into the carrier socket. Note that splitter functionality
cannot be wirelessly configured, but this panel may also function as a simple single-
channel carrier with a single AUX output for any uB module, including Bluetooth
wireless technology models.
CJC DIP Switch
Set this DIP switch to the ON position (left) to make a CJC connection at the input.
Some models require CJC to be set ON or OFF depending on the model as follows
(also consult your specific module instructions):
CJC
uB30/40 uB31/41 uB32/42
uB34/35
uB37/47

Software Configuration via wired USB to a Windows based personal computer or
tablet running Windows software, or wired USB OTG (On-The-Go) to an Android
smartphone or tablet using our Agility Configuration App.
