FP-AIO-600 and cFP-AIO-600

ni.com
If the output of a [c]FP-AIO-600 channel is set to 0 mA, the
monitoring circuit does not register an error condition because the
[c]FP-AIO-600 can always source zero current, even to an open
loop. Leave any unused and unwired channels in the default state
to avoid error conditions.
Short-Circuit Protection
Each I
OUT
terminal of the [c]FP-AIO-600 is protected against short
circuits. One or more channel outputs can be short-circuited
indefinitely without causing damage or improper operation to the
channel, as long as the maximum loop supply does not exceed
30 VDC.
Status Indicators
The [c]FP-AIO-600 has two green status LEDs,
POWER
and
READY
. After you install the [c]FP-AIO-600 onto a terminal base
or backplane and apply power to the connected network module,
the green
POWER
indicator lights and the [c]FP-AIO-600
informs the network module of its presence. When the network
module recognizes the [c]FP-AIO-600, it sends initial
configuration information to the [c]FP-AIO-600. After the
[c]FP-AIO-600 receives this initial information, the green
READY
indicator lights and the module is in normal operating
mode.
In addition to the green
POWER
and
READY
indicators, each
output channel has a red, numbered error status indicator. For more
information, refer to the
Open-Loop Detection
section.
Upgrading the FieldPoint Firmware
You may need to upgrade the FieldPoint firmware when you add
new I/O modules to the FieldPoint system. For information on
