7.9.2. Built-in inputs - Input modules
A short description of the physical input configuration is shown in Fig. 4.10 ÷ Fig. 4.12
and is dependent on specific measurement modules. In the Built-in inputs menu for the
module the user can:
– change the ranges covered (depending on module), see 8. APPENDICES ,
– change the connection method - it depends on the module (see
8. APPENDICES
),
e.g. in the RTD module the user can select 2, 3 and 4-wire connections,
– change the type of the input signal reading - depending on the module, e.g. a
thermocouple module can read temperature and voltage,
– change operation of the module - e.g. in the counter module the user can select
the function mode: add mode ("Function mode"="A+B"), subtract mode ("Function
mode"="A-B"), quadrature mode 1 ("Function mode"="quad 1"), quadrature mode
with increased resolution ("Function mode"="quad 4"),
Parameters common for the built-in inputs modules:
– Name - each built-in input already has a name given by the device and the user
cannot change it, for the description of the
Name
parameter see
Fig. 7.81
,
–
Unit
– it is related to the channel source data, for built-in modules the default unit
appears automatically,
– Mode – sets the type of measurement; depending on the module it sets
the measurement range or the way of measurement,
– Low Limit – below this value in the logical channel, the low alarm state appears,
displayed as Lo ,
–
High Limit
– above this value in the logical channel, the high alarm state appears,
displayed as
Hi
,
Other parameters of the Built-in inputs menu depend on the modules installed in the device.
7.9.3. Built-in inputs - Binary input Inp.X2 : Digital 24V
The device has a built-in digital input which can be used for example as a switch for
a process. Specifications of the digital input are included in
Chapter 3. TECHNICAL DATA
.
This digital input has the following levels:
input voltage [V]
digital input
min max
low level 0 1 0
prohibited level >1 <8 x
high level 8 24 1
Tab. 7.6 Voltage levels for Binary input Inp.X2 : Digital 24V
The Binary input has 2 parameters:
– Name – each built-in input already has a name given by the device and the user
cannot change it, for the description of the
Name
parameter see
