Installing the RTD Input Module

Publication1771Ć6.5.129 - March 2000

The front panel of the RTD input module contains a green RUN
indicator and a red FAULT indicator. At power-up, the module
momentarily turns on both indicators as a lamp test, then checks for:

correct RAM operation

EPROM operation

EEPROM operation

a valid write block transfer with configuration data

If there is no fault, the red indicator turns off.

The green indicator comes on when the module is powered. It will
flash until the module is programmed. If a fault is found initially or
occurs later, the red fault indicator lights. The module also reports
status and specific faults (if they occur) in every transfer of data
(BTR) to the PC processor. Monitor the green and red indicators and
status bits in word 1 of the BTR file when troubleshooting
your module.

In this chapter you learned how to install your input module in an
existing programmable controller system and how to wire to the field
wiring arm.
