Install Your FLEX I/O AC Digital Output Module

The module mounts on a 1794 terminal base.

1. Rotate the keyswitch (3) on the terminal base (4) clockwise to position 8 as

required for this type of module.

2. Make certain the FlexBus connector (1) is pushed all the way to the left to

connect with the neighboring terminal base/adapter. You cannot install
the module unless the connector is fully extended.

3. Make sure the pins on the bottom of the module are straight so they will

align properly with the connector in the terminal base.

4. Position the module (7) with its alignment bar (6) aligned with the groove

(5) on the terminal base.

5. Press firmly and evenly to seat the module in the terminal base unit. The

module is seated when the latching mechanism (2) is locked into the
module.

Connecting Wiring for the 1794-OA8 and 1794-OA8K

1. For 1794-TB2, 1794-TB3, or 1794-TB3S: Connect individual output

wiring to even numbered terminals on the 0…15 row (A) as indicated in
the table, Wiring Connections for the 1794-OA8 and 1794-OA8K.

For 1794-TBN or 1794-TBNF: Connect individual output wiring to even
numbered terminals on the 16…33 row (B) as indicated in the table below.

2. For 1794-TB2, 1794-TB3, or 1794-TB3S: Connect the associated V AC

common (L2) lead of the output device to the corresponding odd
numbered terminal on the 0…15 row (A) for each output as indicated in
the table below; or to the corresponding terminal on the 16…33 row (B).
(The V AC common (L2) terminals of row (B) and the odd numbered
terminals of row (A) are internally connected together.)

For 1794-TBN or 1794-TBNF: Connect the associated V AC common
(L2) lead of the output device to the corresponding odd numbered
terminal on the 34…51 row (C) for each output as indicated in the table
below. (The odd numbered terminals of row (C) are internally connected
together to V AC L2 common.)

3. Connect V AC power L1 to terminal 34 on the 34…51 row (C).
4. Connect V AC common L2 to terminal 16 on the 16…33 row (B).
5. If daisychaining V AC power (L1) to the next terminal base, connect a

jumper from terminal 51 (V AC L1) on this base unit to terminal 34 on the
next base unit.

6. If continuing V AC common (L2) to the next base unit, connect a jumper

from terminal 33 (V common L2) on this base unit to terminal 16 on the
next base unit.

WARNING

Observe the following additional Zone 2 certification
requirements.

• This equipment is not resistant to sunlight or other sources of UV

radiation.

• This equipment must be installed in an enclosure providing at least

IP54 protection when applied in Zone 2 environments.

• This equipment shall be used within its specified ratings defined by

Rockwell Automation.

• Provision shall be made to prevent the rated voltage from being

exceeded by transient disturbances of more than 40% when
applied in Zone 2 environments.

• This equipment must be used only with ATEX certified

Rockwell Automation terminal bases.

• Secure any external connections that mate to this equipment by

using screws, sliding latches, threaded connectors, or other means
provided with this product.

• Do not disconnect equipment unless power has been removed or

the area is known to be nonhazardous.

ATTENTION

Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause
internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines
when you handle this equipment:

• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not

in use.

WARNING

1794-TBNF and 1794-TBNFK are not approved for Class I Division 2
Applications.

WARNING

If you insert or remove the module while backplane power is on, an
electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location
installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding.

IMPORTANT

Total current draw through terminal base connection is limited to 10A. Separate power
connections to each terminal base may be necessary.

ATTENTION

If multiple power sources are used for 1794-OA8I, do not exceed the specified isolation
voltage.
