Analog Input Module GFK-1206D RTD Input Module June 1997 Module Operation The RTD Input Module accepts four inputs from three-wire or four-wire RTDs and converts the input level to a digital value. Input spans support a variety of RTD types, as listed in the Module Specifications section.
Analog Input Module RTD Input Module GFK-1206D June 1997 Host Interface The RTD Input module has the following data types: 4 analog inputs (4 words) 32 bits of discrete input data for module and channel status (use of this data is optional) 8 bits of discrete output data for fault clearing to the module (also optional) Analog output data defaults to a length of 0, and should NOT be used for most applications.

Analog Input Module GFK-1206D RTD Input Module June 1997 Module Configuration Overview Like other Field Control modules, the RTD Input module is usually configured from the Bus Interface Unit, using a compatible hand-held programmer. The module will also accept configuration data from the bus when used in a system that supports such configuration. The table below summarizes configuration choices and defaults.
Analog Input Module RTD Input Module GFK-1206D June 1997 Module Features Channel Active Each channel can be configured as either active or inactive. If a channel is inactive, it is not scanned and a value of 0 is returned to the BIU. If a channel is active, and the configured analog input data length is not long enough to accommodate the data for a particular channel, the data for that channel is still processed, since the response to a group command may be used to transmit that channel’s data to the...

Analog Input Module RTD Input Module GFK-1206D June 1997 Diagnostics The RTD module performs diagnostics and provides the diagnostic data to the BIU using its configured discrete input (I) references, starting at the configured reference offset. The RTD sets the appropriate bit when a diagnostic condition is detected. The bit remains set until cleared.
