Lynx™ Shielded Analog Input Module IA1‑M‑V | Product Manual
6 RJG, Inc.
INSTALLATION SPECIFICATIONS
The instructions that follow are a general guide;
actual steps necessary to install this product
will vary based on injection molding machine
manufacturer, model, and options.
The required machine signals can often be
obtained from the machine’s output card.
REQUIREMENTS
CAUTION Before beginning IA1‑M‑V
installation, disconnect and lockout/tag‑out any
and all power to the molding machine. Failure to
comply will result in personal injury or death, and
damage or destruction of equipment.
MOUNTING
Mount the IA1‑M‑V module to a solid surface—
such as the molding machine frame—using the
supplied 1.38” (35 mm) DIN rail. A clearance
height of 6” (152,4 mm) from the face of the
module is recommended.
NOTE
Modules and connecting cables must
be located away from any static sources, such as
feeder tubes and material hoppers.
WIRING
The C‑IA1‑M‑3M cable has colored‑coded
wires to simplify installation. Refer to the table
below for the correct wire/signal combinations
for installation.
INPUT FUNCTION COLOR
0–10 V + Signal Blue
0 V DC Common – Signal White
Attach the 0 V DC (white) wire to the common
terminal of the injection molding machine
0–10 V I/O card.
Attach the 0–10 V (blue) wire to the shield of
the machine.
If a 4–20 mA sensor is used, a 500 Ω resistor
can be used to appropriately alter the signal to
work with the 0–10 V IA1‑M‑V (below). Wire
the resistor between the C‑IA1‑M‑3M cable
pigtals at the machine output card, as shown
below.
NOTE
Note the signals which are wired to the
machine for future software setup and use.
CURRENT SOURCE
CONNECTIONS
Connect the C‑IA1‑M‑3M cable to the IA1‑M‑V
module.
Connect the IA1‑M‑V to the shielded
sequence module ID7‑M‑SEQ—or shielded
communications module DIN/LX‑D—using the
integrated, side‑mount amphenol connector.
