Features of the analog modules
Characteristics
●
8 inputs in 4 channel groups (each group with two inputs of same type)
●
Measurement resolution adjustable for each channel group
●
User defined measuring mode per channel group:
–
Voltage
–
Current
–
Resistance
–
Temperature
●
Programmable diagnostic interrupt
●
Two channels with limit alarms (only channel 0 and channel 2 are configurable)
●
Electrically isolated against backplane bus
●
Electrically isolated against load voltage (exception: at least one module is set to position
D)
The module is a universal analog module designed for the most commonly used
applications.
The desired measuring mode should be set up directly on the module with the measuring
range modules.
