The Eight Channel Analog Input Module is a member of Control Technology's family of I/O modules compatible with the SIMATIC® 505 programmable controllers. The Model 2550 is designed to translate an analog input signal into an equivalent digital word which is then sent to the programmable controller (PLC).

2.1.1 Calculating the I/O Base Power Budget The Model 2550 requires 2.5 watts of +5 V power from the I/O base. Use this value to verify that the base power supply capacity is not exceeded. 2.1.2 Input Signal Wiring Input signal wiring must be shielded twisted-pair cable.
CAUTION: HANDLING STATIC SENSITIVE DEVICES The components on the Model 2550 module printed circuit card can be damaged by static electricity discharge. To prevent this damage, the module is shipped in a special anti-static bag. Static control precautions should be followed when removing the module from the bag, when opening the module, and when handling the printed circuit card during configuration.
2.3 Configuring the Module The Model 2550 must be configured for voltage or current inputs, voltage range, unipolar/bipolar mode, and digital filtering/no filtering mode before wiring the input connectors and inserting the module into the I/O base. As shipped, all input channels are configured for current inputs, 5V range (see Note below), unipolar mode, and digital filtering enabled (see Figure 17).

2.3.4 Selecting Digital Filtering Locate the Digital Filtering/No Filtering Jumper JP6 (see Figure 18). To enable digital filtering, set the jumper in the FIL position. Since many analog input signals contain noise, CTI recommends using digital filtering unless maximum response time is required.
To assign an input to a specific channel, locate the appropriate channel position on the screw terminal plug as shown in the following figure: CT I 2550 Installation and O peration G uide Artisan Technology Group - Quality Instrumentation ... Guaranteed | (888) 88-SOURCE | www.artisantg.com...

An example chart is shown in the following figure. In this example, the Model 2550 module is inserted in slot 1 in I/O base 1. Data for channel 1 appears in word location WX1, data for channel 2 appears in word location WX2, etc. For your particular module, look in the chart for the number corresponding to the slot occupied by the module.
