1756-IRT8I Combined Temperature-sensing Isolated Analog Module

Chapter 4

Connecting a Cold Junction Sensor via an Interface Module

The IFMs use an isothermal bar to maintain a steady temperature at all module
terminations. When using the IFM, we recommend that you mount it so that the
black anodized aluminum bar is in the horizontal position.

When using an IFM, do not connect a CJC sensor to the module because it is
built into the IFM. However, you must enable the Remote CJ Compensation
field in the Logix Designer application as shown below.

If you connect a CJS via an IFM, configure the module as shown on the Module
Properties Configuration tab.

Cold Junction Disable Option

You can disable cold junction compensation on your 1756-IRT8I module. Check
