Relay Outputs (Function 71) - Siemens FIDAMAT 6 Operating Instructions Manual

Note
If the electronics is defective, it is possible for the analog output to become stuck at approx. -
1 mA or approx. +24 mA.

Relay outputs (function 71)

Figure 8-42
There are six freely configurable relays included in the standard equipment whose
switchable output contacts (max. 24 V/1 A) can be used for signaling, actuating valves, etc.
If these six relays are insufficient, you can add eight more relays through additional
electronics (option board).
With this function, you assign one of the functions listed in the table "Relay outputs (possible
functions)" to each relay, whereby you may only assign each function once. In other words,
for example, "Fault" may not be assigned to two relays at the same time.
The connection assignments for the individual relays in the zero-current state can be found
in the terminal diagram "Motherboard pin assignment". The relays are preset at delivery.
Press the fifth softkey ("...cont."), to access the next function screen, thus branching to
further relays.
