Wiring Scheme; Wiring The Em 231 Rtd Module - Siemens SIMATIC S7-200 System Manual

Selecting sensor burnout direction Use DIP switch 6 to set the sensor burnout
direction as shown in Table A-31.

Downscale (-3276.8 degrees)
Selecting the temperature scale The RTD module can report temperatures in
Celsius or Fahrenheit. The Celsius to Fahrenheit conversion is performed inside
the module. Use switch 7 to select the temperature scale as shown in Table A-32.

Wiring the EM 231 RTD Module

You can wire the EM 231 RTD module directly to the S7-200 module, or you can
use extension wires. Use shielded wires for best noise immunity. If you use
shielded wires, connect the shield to the grounds on pins 1 to 4 of the signal
connector. This ground is the same ground as is present on the power connector
pins 3 to 7. If you do not use an RTD input channel, you should wire a resistor to
the unused channel inputs to prevent errors from floating inputs from blocking error
indications from valid channels.
Connect user power to the power connector pins 1 and 2. You must connect pin 3
to a nearby chassis ground (Figure A-38).
You can wire the RTD module to the sensor in three ways (shown in Figure A-39).
The most accurate is 4 wire (see Figure A-39). The least accurate is 2 wire, which
is only recommended if errors due to wiring can be ignored in your application.
