Configuration options of AI 8xU/I/RTD/TC ST
You can configure the module with STEP 7 (TIA Portal) or with a GSD file.
When you configure the module by means of the GSD file, the configurations are available
under different abbreviations/module names.
The following configurations are possible:
Table 4- 4 Configuration options
Configuration
1 x 8-channel without value status
1 x 8-channel with value status
8 x 1-channel without value status
8 x 1-channel with value status
1 x 8-channel with value status for
module-internal shared input with
up to 4 submodules
Value status (Quality Information, QI)
The value status is always activated for the following module names:
● AI 8xU/I/RTD/TC ST QI
● AI 8xU/I/RTD/TC ST S QI
● AI 8xU/I/RTD/TC ST MSI
An additional bit is assigned to each channel for the value status. The value status bit
indicates if the read in digital value is valid. (0 = value is incorrect).
