What This Chapter Contains
Read this chapter to familiarize yourself with the input and output analog
modules.
What the FLEX I/O Analog
I/O Modules Do
The 1794 HART input and output modules must be used in a ControlNet or
EtherNet network.
The 1794-IE8H module accepts up to 8 analog inputs. The inputs are
nonisolated and will accept current in either of the following two ranges: 4 to
20 mA or 0 to 20 mA. The default input range is 0 to 20 mA. The inputs have
both fixed hardware filters and selectable firmware digital filters.
Similarly, the 1794-OE8H module provides as many as 8 analog outputs. The
outputs are nonisolated and will provide current in either of the following two
ranges: 4 to 20 mA or 0 to 20 mA. The default output range is 0 to 20 mA.
Each module offers:
• local microprocessor intelligence for advanced features.
• full functionality without switches or jumpers.
• multiple data ranges that can be independently programmed
in channel groups.
• lead breakage detection.
• overrange/underrange alarms.
• remote transmitter alarm.
