  • Page 13: Module Identification And Status Registers

    Module identification including model number, serial number, date code and firmware revision are stored in module registers starting at address 0. I/O modules in a system are identified in general by their model number (MAQ20-RTD31, MAQ20- VDN, etc.) and uniquely by their Serial Number printed on the side label (1234567-89). When I/O modules are installed in the system, only a general identifier is visible on the front of the module (RTD, V, etc.).
  • Page 14 MA1044 MAQ20-RTD31/-RTD41 Hardware User Manual For troubleshooting purposes, reset status, communications errors, and invalid data written to a module are monitored and made available to the user. Module diagnostic registers starting at module register address 1900 hold this information. Table 3: MAQ20-RTD41 Address Map Excerpt – Status Registers...

I/O modules in a system are identified in general by their model number (MAQ20-RTD31, MAQ20-VDN, etc.) and uniquely by their Serial Number printed on the side label (i.e. 1234567-89). When I/O modules are installed in the system, only a general identifier is visible on the front of the module (RTD, V, TC, etc.).

  • Page 23: Channel Scan Rate, System Throughput & Module Internal Multiplexer

    The following calculation is used to determine channel scan rate for each of the 6 input channels in a MAQ20-RTD31 input module operating in a system of modules. The same method applies to determine the channel scan rate of the 5 input channels in a MAQ20-RTD41 module.
  • Page 24 MAQ20-COM4 MAQ20-RTD31 The MAQ20-RTD31 input channel scan rate is 6ms, so it is possible to read the module faster than the internal multiplexer rate. In this case the same data will be reported as on the prior scan. In this system...
