16x32 Matrix Configuration
To create a 16x32 matrix, you may connect your field wiring to the 34934A by
three methods:
Terminal Block
You can use terminal block 34934T-002. The terminal block
connects to the 34934A’s two D-Sub connectors; it provides 12 blocks of 12 screw
terminals each, and a 16x32 removable overlay (supplied with the 34934T-002)
which provides guidance for field wiring the 16x32 matrices. Follow these sections
in order to configure and wire the terminal block:
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 16x32 Layout” on page 179
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 16x32 Jumper Configuration” on page 182
– “34934T-002 Terminal Block: 16x32 Wiring” on page 185
Configuration Block
You can use configuration block 34934C-001. Follow
these sections in order to configure and wire the configuration block:
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: Layout” on page 191
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: 16x32 Jumper Configuration” on page 192
– “34934C-002 Configuration Block: Wiring” on page 198
Direct Wiring
You can wire directly to the module’s D-Sub connectors using
custom cabling. You will have to short specific pins on and between the D-Sub
connectors to create the 16x32 configuration. Review both these sections before
wiring to the module’s D-Subs:
– “34934A D-Sub Connectors: 16x32 Pin Assignments” on page 203
– “34934A Module D-Sub Connectors: 16x32 Wiring” on page 205
Use of the 34934C-002 precludes use of a piggy-backed 34934T-002 terminal block for
field wiring connections; the combination is not mechanically reliable.
