analog inputs, display and touch keypad.

The D8 has the following features:
• Keypad and two-line, 16-character display.
• Options for mass termination and screw terminals for the power and analog inputs.
• Micro-style connector for DeviceNet™.
• Input power of 12 to 24VDC at 1 ampere.
• 50-pin SCSI cable to connect the digital inputs and outputs to the 50-terminal block (TB50).
The D8 is available with an 18-terminal block (TB18) in place of the SCSI connector, as
shown in Figure 1.1 above.
• Nonvolatile flash memory for storage of firmware.
• Battery-backed storage of operating parameters. If a power loss occurs, the operating
parameters are stored in memory. The battery has a ten-year shelf life, and it is not used
when the controller is on.
• Microprocessor control of all calculations for input signal linearization, PID control, alarms,
and communications.
Front Panel Description
The display and keypad provide an intelligent way to operate the controller. The display has 16
alphanumeric or graphic characters per line. The eight-key keypad allows you to change the
operating parameters, controller functions and displays.
The displays show process variables, set points and output levels for each loop. A single-loop
display, scanning display and alarm display offer a real-time view of process conditions.
