Installing the Input Module

Publication 1771Ć6.5.115 - February 1999

Place your module in any I/O module slot of the I/O chassis except
for the extreme left slot. This slot is reserved for PC processors or
adapter modules.

Group your modules to minimize adverse affects from radiated
electrical noise and heat. We recommend the following.

Group analog input and low voltage dc modules away from ac
modules or high voltage dc modules to minimize electrical noise
interference.

Do not place this module in the same I/O group with a discrete
high-density I/O module when using 2-slot addressing. This
module uses a byte in both the input and output image tables for
block transfer.

The analog input module (1771-IFE/C) has configuration plugs for
determining the input type (voltage or current) desired for each
input. The module comes from the factory with the configuration
plugs positioned for voltage mode.

Note that you can select either voltage or current for each input, but
they must all be either single-ended or all differential.

Important: Do not mix single-ended and differential inputs on

the module.

To set the configuration plugs for your desired inputs:

Remove the four screws securing the side cover

to the module and remove the covers.
