CHAPTER 2.  INSTALLATION

The installation of the Eight Channel Analog Input Module involves the following steps:

1

. Planning the installation

2

. Configuring the module

3

. Inserting the module into the I/O base

4

. Wiring and connecting the module input connectors

5

. Checking module operation

The steps listed above are explained in detail in the following pages.

2.1 Planning the Installation 

Planning is the first step in the installation of the module. This involves calculating the I/O base power
budget and routing the input signal wiring to minimize noise. The following sections discuss these
important considerations.

2.1.1 Calculating the I/O Base Power Budget

 

The Model 2550-A requires 5.2 watts of +5V power from the I/O base. Use this value to verify that the
base power supply is not exceeded.

2.1.2 Input Signal Wiring

 

Input signal wiring must be shielded twisted pair cable. A twisted pair will aid in the rejection of
conducted and radiated interference from other energy sources. Standard practices usually require that
all shields be tied together and grounded at a single point.
