Analog Input Modules
Analog input modules convert analog process signals to digital values that the CPU can process (via
the process image input table, PII). In the following sections, you will find information about the
operating principle, wiring methods, and start-up and programming of analog input modules.
11.2
Connecting Current and Voltage Sensors to Analog Input Modules
Observe the following rules to connect current and voltage sensors to analog input modules:
•
When you have multi-channel operations, assign the channels in ascending order. This shortens
the data cycle.
•
Use terminals 1 and 2 for the connection of a compensating box (464-8MA11 ) or for the supply
of two-wire transducers (464-8ME11).
-
Terminals 1 and 2 cannot be used with the remaining analog input modules.
•
Short-circuit the terminals of unused inputs.
•
Set the reference potentials of the sensors to a common reference potential. Do this to prevent
the potential difference between the common references from exceeding 1 V.
