Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
ControlLogix analog modules are sensitive to electrostatic discharge. ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated circuits or semiconductors if you touch backplane connector pins. Follow these guidelines when you handle the module:
Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device Do not touch the backplane connector or
connector pins Do not touch circuit components inside the module If available, use a static-safe work station When not in use, keep the module in its static-shield bag
Removing and Inserting Under Power
This module is designed to be installed or removed while chassis power is applied. ATTENTION: When you insert or remove a module while backplane power is on, an electrical arc may occur. An electrical arc can cause personal injury or property damage by:
sending an erroneous signal to your systems field

devices causing unintended machine motion or loss of process control. causing an explosion in a hazardous environment. Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive wear to contacts on both the module and its mating connector. Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can affect module operation.

Using an I/O Module in the ControlLogix System
ControlLogix analog I/O modules translate analog signals to, or from, the digital domain allowing for industrial control systems to operate on analog inputs or outputs to perform control applications. Practically speaking, an analog I/O module translates an analog signal level into, or from, a corresponding discrete representation which controllers can easily operate on for control purposes. A ControlLogix I/O module mounts in a ControlLogix chassis and uses a Removable Terminal Block (RTB) or Interface Module (IFM) to connect all field-side wiring. Before you install and use your module you should have already:
installed and grounded a 1756 chassis and power supply.

To install these products, refer to publications 1756-5.1 and 1756-5.2. ordered and received an RTB or IFM and its components for your application. Types of Analog ControlLogix I/O

Major Features of the ControlLogix Analog I/O Modules

(INSERT ART)
Connectors pins - Input/output, power and grounding connections are made to the module through these pins by a Removable Terminal Block (RTB), see page X, or an Interface Module (IFM), see page X. Status indicators - Indicators display the status of communication and input/output. Use these indicators to help in troubleshooting. Top and bottom guides - Guides provide assistance in seating the RTB or IFM onto the module. Locking tab - The locking tab anchors the RTB or IFM on the module, maintaining wiring connections. Backplane controlbus - This backplane connector interface for the ControlLogix system connects the module to the chassis.
1-5
Using Features of ControlLogix Analog I/O Modules
The following features are available on both input and output analog modules.
Data Types and Connection Points

There are two data types: floating point or integer. Floating point mode unlocks all the module features, and integer mode allows for faster sampling rates and uses less memory in the data table. The following three forward open service parameters must be in agreement as to the selected data type. Data types may not be mixed amongst the three.
Configuration instance - This assembly instance selects a

configuration to apply, either Default, Listen Only, Float, or Raw.
Consumer connection point - This parameter selects the type of

connection to be established from the Originator, the controller, to the Target, the analog module. For inputs modules, the connection is Heartbeat, either Listen Only or Controlling. For outputs modules, in addition to the Heartbeat connections, you may also choose Float Ouptut or Raw Output.
Producer connection point - This parameter defines data from the

Target, the analog module, to the Originator, the controller. Isolated analog modules have eight choices available, either Float, CST Float, CJ Float, CJ CST Float, Raw, CST Raw, CJ Raw, or CJ CST Raw. The CJ option is only used with thermocouple modules. High Volume have four choices available, either Float, CST Float, Raw, or CST Raw.
Scaling
The ControlLogix analog module scales analog values in different terms depending on the data types being used to interface with the module. You must choose one of the following types of scaling:
Floating point scaling - This operation requires the user to configure

all four scaling points, LowSignal, HighSignal, LowEngineering, and HighEngineering. Raw scaling - This operation is always fixed and allows no user configurability. Raw scaling translates the lowest signal value that a channel may reach under its current configuration into 32,768 counts and scales the highest signal value into 32, 767 counts.

Sampling, Receiving and Producing Rela-Time Data

These processes are the keys to theControlLogix analog modules communications inerface with the control system. Sampling data indicates the reading of inputs, or for analogs, reading the Analog-to-Digital Converters. Receiving data indicates recovering data from the backplane intended for the module. Producing data indicates sending data out on the backplane to Originators interested in receiving the data. Inputs: Sampling and Producing Data ControlLogix analog modules sample data at user defined increments known as the RealTimeSample (RTS) period. At minimum, the modules produce data onto the backplane at the connection defined Target to Originator (TtoO) Actual Packet Interval (API). By configuring the RTS and production rate (TtoO API), you can obtain the following variety of sampling and data combinations:
RTS = TtoO API - This typical combination yields every sample

produced on the backplane and received in the controller, barring communication problems. RTS < TtoO API - This combination allows for reduced bandwidth usage but recent data. RTS > TtoO API - This combination allows redundant sending of samples and increases the probability of the controller seeing each sample. Outputs: Receiving and Producing Data ControlLogix analog output modules expect to receive output data at the Originator to Target Actual Packet Interval (OtoT API). In reality, this data is received far more often. New outputs update the analog output signal. Note: A new output is considered to be an output level different than what the module is currently outputting.

Using Features Specific to Input Modules
The following features are available only with analog input modules. Most features are only available in floating point mode.
Process Alarms
Process alarms are set at four user configurable alarm trigger points:
LowAlarmTrigger LowLowAlarmTrigger HighAlarmTrigger HighHighAlarmTrigger Each process alarm can be monitored in ladder logic for abnormal behavior. How should we show this? Here or somewhere with a set of other ladder logic as well? You may configure an Alarm Deadband to work with these process alarms. The deadband allows the process alarm status bit to remain set, despite the alarm condition disappearing, as long as the input data remains within the deadband and the process alarm.

Two analog modules, the RTD (1756-IR6I) and Thermocouple (1756-IT6I), allow you to configure a Sensor Type that causes the analog signal to be linearized into a temperature value. RTD Linearization RTDs measure the resistance of the input and translate the Ohms signal into a temperature value. ControlLogix analog modules offer 14 specific sensor types. Use the following table to check the sensor types and Ohms signals that correspond with each.
Sensor Type Platinum 385 Platinum 3916 Copper 427 Nickel 618 Nickel 672 Ohms range 100, 200, 500, and 1000 100, 200, 500, and 1000 10 100, 120, 200, and 500 120
RTD linearization is only available in floating point mode.
1-8
Thermocouple Linearization Thermocouple modules measure a millivolt input signal and linearize it into a temperature value; the value is expressed in oC or oF based on the selected module Temperature Mode. Note: The junction of field wires with the terminations of an RTB generates a small voltage. This thermoelectric effect alters the input signal. To accurately measure the input signal, you must use a cold junction sensor (CJS) to account for the increased voltage. See Chapter 2 for information about how to mount a CJS to your module. If you use an IFM to connect wiring to your thermocouple module, you do not need to attach the CJS. The IFM compensates an additional voltage.
Using Features Specific to Output Modules
The following features are available only with analog output modules. Most features are only available in floating point mode.
Ramping
Ramping limits the speed at which an analog output signal can change. This prevents fast transitions in output from damaging the devices that an output controls. Ramping is possible in the following situations:
Run mode ramping - This ramping occurs during the normal run
mode and begins operation between the current output level and any new output value received. Ramp to idle mode - This ramping occurs when the current output value changes to the Idle Value after an Idle Command is received from the controller. Ramp to fault mode - This ramping occurs when the current output value changes to the Fault Value after a fault occurs.
Clamping
Clamping allows you to select the maximum range limits an output should ever reach in the control process. This is a safety feature.
1-9
Hold for Initialization

Hold for Initialization causes outputs to hold current state until the consumed output matches the output echo within 0.1% of full scale. Outputs will hold if any of the three conditions occur:
Initial conection is established after power-up A new connection is established after a fault occurs There is a transition to Run mode from Idle state Fault and Idle Behavior
If you lose direct control of the outputs through a fault or the controller switching to idle mode, the outputs will transition to a safe state. Each output can be configured to hold last state or go to a specific value designated by the Fault State or Idle State bits.

Chapter
This chapter describes how to configure ControlLogix analog modules. The following table describes what this chapter contains and its location.
For information about See page
Configuring the Input Module
Because of the many analog devices available and the wide variety of possible configurations, you must configure both your I/O module and the channels of each module. You may choose to use the default configuration for your module and channels rather than write configuration that is specific to your application. This chapter is designed to explain how to configure your modules and channels, with the explanations broken up for input and output modules. At the beginning of each new section there is a chart providing default values for each configurable point.
Configuring the Thermocouple Module
The thermocouple module (Cat. No. 1756-IT6I), due its temperature sensitivity, has more configurable points than any other ControlLogix analog module. The following table displays the module default values for the thermocouple module.
Configurable Feature Iterface Module Cold Junction Disable Cold Junction Offset Temperature Mode Real Time Sampling Target to Originator Real Packet Interval Producer Connection Point Module Default 0 0 0.00 0 100 100,000 0xA0
Interface Module (IFM)

An IFM connects wiring to the module as described in Chapter 2. We recommend you use an IFM for any applications requiring the thermocouple wiring because it provides greater accuracy in measuring temperature within the module than an RTB.

Calibrating Input Modules
Input calibration is a mult-step process that involves multiple services being sent to the module. The following text and flow chart describe the process itself. A more detailed description of each step follows the flow chart. The Calibrate Inputs service switches the module into a calibrating mode. This initiates input calibration and faults all module points if a real-time connection is currently open. Input channels have specific calibration points, low and high, which you must input to the module. Some modules support calibration in multiple ranges. You have a choice of services that sample specified channels for the input module. Send for a sample using one of the following:
Accept Input Low Cal Accept Input High Cal

If an error occurs when these services are sent, the accept services can be resent and another sample taken. Resending the accept services transitions the module to the Sampled Both High & Low state and verifies the calibration constants taken. Verification of the calibration constants results in one of two conditions:
If the constants are bad, the module transitions to the Bad

Calibration state and awaits a new accept service attempt.
If the constants are valid, the module transitions to the calibration

end state, Valid Cal Completed. After calibration is completed, the new constants are stored and the module returned to its state prior to the Calibrate Inputs service beginning.

Use the following calibration screen to set these points.

(INSERT ART)
Calibrating Channels in Multiple Ranges

The following ControlLogix analog modules may be calibrated in multiple input ranges:
1756-IF6I, IF8, IF16, IR6I, and IT6I

The calibration range for each module is selected by the most significant bit in the byte of the cal mask. Use one of the following ranges:
If the bit is clear, the normal calibration range is +/-10 or -12 to

78mV. If the bit is set, the alternate calibration range is chosen, either 0 to 20mA on the Vin or -12 to 30mV on the thermocouple.

Accept Input Low Calibration Service

This service samples the inputs for calibration points. The sample is then checked for validity against the expected low calibration reference point and status is returned in the following two fields:
A status field indicating the success or failure of the low calibration

service itself. A status field indicating the current calibration state for each point in the AIG by displaying a status for the high and low references of each point. Status indicates either nothing was done, a successful reference was performed, a bad reference was taken, or calibration was done. Use the screen below to trigger the Accept Input Low Calibration Service.

4-7
Calibrating Output Modules
Output calibration is a mult-step process that involves multiple services being sent to the module. The following text and flow chart describe the process itself. A more detailed description of each step follows the flow chart. The Calibrate Outputs service switches the module into a calibrating mode. This initiates output calibration and faults all module points if a real-time connection is currently open. Output channels output at specific reference points, low and high, which you must set to the module. You have a choice of services that set reference points for the output module. Set your reference point using one of the following:
Generate Output Low Reference Generate Output High Reference

After setting one end, low or high, record the the measured output levels and use the other reference service to set opposite references. The Calibrate Outputs Finish service transitions the module into the Calibration Constant Verification. Use this service to check the calibration of each output channel. Verification of the calibration constants results in one of two conditions:
If the constants are bad, the module transitions to the Bad

Calibration state and awaits a new reference service to correct the calibration. If the constants are valid, the module transitions to the Valid Calibration Completed state. After calibration is completed, the new constants are stored and the module returned to its state prior to the Calibrate Outputs service beginning.
