CHAPTER 1. OVERVIEW 1.0. Product Summary The CTI 2558 Eight Channel Analog Input Module is a member of Control Technology’s family of I/O modules compatible with the 505 programmable controllers. It is designed to SIMATIC® translate an analog input signal into an equivalent digital word which is then sent to the programmable controller (PLC).
(see Figure 2.2 Configuration Jumper Board Locations). Jumper JP40 when enabled will configure the module such that all inputs will be scaled for 1-5VDC or 4-20mA operation. No further relay ladder logic is required for input processing. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
WX = (10 x 32000) 20 = 16000 Note: Bit 15 is always returned as a zero, and bit 16 is employed as an over/underrange bit. Consequently, returned data values change by four. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
This level is different for every channel. In Figures 1.3 and 1.6, the limits for the overrange and underrange values are the minimum limits for a given channel. The actual limits for an individual channel may be greater. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
PLC for a number of counts before the underrange bit is set. Figure 1.3 13 Bit Voltage Input Limits (Unipolar) Figures 1.4 and 1.5 show the binary values of typical overrange and underrange conditions for Unipolar mode.

Figure 1.6 13 Bit Voltage Input Limits (Bipolar) Figures 1.7 and 1.8 show the binary values of typical overrange and underrange conditions for Bipolar Mode. Figure 1.7 13 Bit Overrange Word Value (Bipolar) CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
5 counts out of 32000 as a result of the multiplication and division of the incoming data word. The chart below shows the corresponding input resolution per step for each of the input configuration modes: Figure 1.9 Input Resolution: 13 Bit CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
WX = (7.5 x 32000) 10 = 24000 Digital Word (WX) = (Input current x 32000) 20 mA 0 to +20mA range example: 10mA input WX = (10 x 32000) 20 = 16000 CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
The underrange capability of any channel in Unipolar Mode may produce a negative value to the PLC for a number of counts before the underrange code is produced. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
In Bipolar Mode signals above or below the upper and lower limits in the -5 to +5 VDC or -10 to +10 VDC range are translated to a digital word and also utilize the overrange and underrange values. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
Figure 1.14 16 Bit Voltage Input Limits (Bipolar) Figures 1.15 and 1.16 show the binary values of typical overrange and underrange conditions for Bipolar Mode.

Avoid placing low voltage wire parallel to high-energy wire (if the two wires must meet, cross them at a right angle) • Avoid bending the wire into sharp angles • Use wireways for wire routing • Avoid placing wires on any vibrating surface CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
Always use this bag for protection against static damage when the module is not inserted into the I/O backplane. WARNING: Ensure that the power supply is turned OFF before connecting the wires to the I/O base. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
For each input channel operating in voltage mode, set the corresponding Voltage Range Jumper to “5V” for 0 to +5V or –5 to +5V input range or “10V” for 0 to +10V or –10 to +10V input range. As shipped, the 2558 is in “5V” range. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
“EN” position; to disable, set to the “DIS” position. Since many analog input signals contain noise, CTI recommends using digital filtering unless maximum response time is required. As shipped, digital filtering is enabled for all 8 analog inputs. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...

“COM” (common) position. To isolate individual channels, choose the “ISO” (isolated) position. As shipped, all 8 channels are in “COM” (common) mode. 2.3.9. Jumper Settings for Future Reference See Appendix B. Jumper Settings Log Sheet to record any changes to the module’s jumper settings. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
To assign an input to a specific channel, locate the appropriate channel position on the screw terminal connector as shown in the following figure: Figure 2.3 Screw Terminal Connector Wiring CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...

2.5.3. Connecting the Shield Wiring Control Technology Inc. recommends that all wires be shielded twisted pair with a foil wrap shield and a separate drain wire and that they be installed in a metallic conduit. Use Belden cable 8761 or equivalent which contains a foil wrap shield and a separate drain wire.
2.6. Installing the Screw Terminal Connector When all the input signal wires are connected to the screw terminal connector, carefully install the connector on the front of the module. Figure 2.5 Input Connector Assembly 2.7. Checking Module Operation CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
If the line is blank or erroneous, re-check the module to ensure that it is firmly seated in the slots. Generate the PLC memory configuration chart again. If the line is still incorrect, contact your local distributor or CTI at 1-800-537-8398 for further assistance. CTI 2558 Installation and Operation Guide...
When it is inconvenient to visually check the status indicator, use the TISOFT “Display Failed I/O” or “Show PLC Diagnostics” support functions. If after consulting the chart above, you are unable to diagnose or solve the problem, contact your local distributor or CTI at 1-800-537-8398 for further assistance.
