S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE AI 046 Wiring Wiring Example INFORMATION Unused inputs should be bridged between analog input + and analog input - using a short-circuit jumper. Open inputs have no functional effect on the module, but lead to higher current consumption in the external supply of the module.
AI 046 S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE Note To ensure error-free operation, a careful wiring method must be followed: • The 0 V connection of the supply voltage must be connected with the 0 V collection point over the shortest route possible.
S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE AI 046 Assembly/Installation Check Contents of Delivery Ensure that the contents of the delivery are complete and intact. See chapter Contents of Delivery. INFORMATION On receipt and before initial use, check the device for damage. If the device is damaged, contact our customer service and do not install the device in your system.
AI 046 S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE Mounting The S-DIAS modules are designed for installation into the control cabinet. To mount the modules a DIN-rail is required. The DIN rail must establish a conductive connection with the back wall of the control cabinet. The individual S-DIAS modules are mounted on the DIN rail as a block and secured with latches.

S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE AI 046 Samples Per Ms Property For setting the samples to be sent per cycle and analog input. The shortest conversion time for the ADC is 10 µs. This results in a maxi- mum of 100 measurement values per millisecond, which can be sent.
AI 046 S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE 16.3 Cable Break Detection Range Error State Shows, whether on the the analog input 1-4 a cable break or over current occurred. An error is also shown by the LED on each single analog input.
S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE AI 046 16.5 Global Methods The following method can be called with the server ClassState. 16.5.1 GetData This function is used to copy data from the measurement value memory. Transfer parameters Type Description usChannelNr USINT Indicates analog input, from which the data should be read.
AI 046 S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE 16.6 Internal Properties The shortest conversion time of the ADC is 10 microseconds. In one millisecond, a maxi- mum of 100 values can be thereby converted. If all 4 analog inputs are active, then 400 measurement values per millisecond are processed.
S-DIAS ANALOG INPUT MODULE AI 046 16.6.1 Example: Exceeding the Maximum Memory Size As the maximum memory size is 2048 bytes, is the 18-bit mode a maximum of 512 meas- urement values can be recorded. So with a setting of 100 values per millisecond in the 18-bit mode, the bus cycle time must not be higher than 5 milliseconds.
