Configuring the Modules

Publication 1771Ć6.4.5 - January 1997

The Module Configuration screen for the module you selected
appears.

3. Select your desired temperature units (Celsius or Fahrenheit).

All temperature values will be displayed in the selected units, and
you should enter all temperature values in these units.

4. Enable or disable the cold-junction alarms.

When cold-junction alarms are enabled, the cold-junction alarm
bit in the data table will be set any time the cold-junction
temperature exceeds seventy degrees Celsius, or falls below zero
degrees Celsius.

5. Select the desired C Display Mode (Normal or Integer).

When you select Integer, the module will set the least significant
digit (tenths of degrees) of the C Temperature output to 0. (You
can view the temperature on the Loop Monitor and Module
Monitor screens.)

For example:

If the Actual value is:

Then the Normal value is:

Or the Integer value is:

This setting applies to all the loops in the module.

Note: This feature is only supported in Module Firmware
Version 3.3. and later.

The Module Configuration screen displays the revision number of
the module’s firmware. This lets you determine the revision level
of your module without removing the module from service.

Note: The module firmware revision will only be valid when
data has been uploaded from the PLC processor.
