ArmorPOINT RTD and Thermocouple Input Modules
Publication 1738-IN005B-EN-E - January 2013
Communicate with the Module
I/O messages are sent to (consumed) and received from (produced) the ArmorPOINT
I/O modules. These messages are mapped onto the processor’s memory. The
ArmorPOINT RTD I/O input module produces 6 Bytes of input data (scanner Rx –
status) and fault status data. The ArmorPOINT thermocouple I/O input module
produces 8 Bytes of input data (scanner Rx – status) and fault status data. They do not
consume I/O data (scanner Tx).
