About the 1794-IB16D
Diagnostic Input Module
The 1794-IB16D diagnostic input module provides 16 points of 24V DC
sinking inputs with open-wire, short-circuit, and user supply reverse polarity
diagnostic features. Each input signal has an associated sensor power connection.
The module monitors current and voltage at each input channel sensor power
terminal.
The module detects:
• an open fault if the sensor-power current drops.
• a short fault if the sensor-power voltage goes low.
• a reverse-polarity fault if reverse voltage is applied to the user terminals.
