Troubleshooting Your Input Module

Publication 1771Ć6.5.115 - February 1999

Common mode voltage on any input must not exceed +14.25V as
referenced to module common (terminals 20 and 21). Common mode
voltages occur when the ground potentials of current transmitter
and/or voltage device power sources are at differential potentials (as
referenced to module common). The resulting ground currents can
cause voltage potentials at the input terminals.

Observe the following guidelines whenever possible to prevent
common mode voltages:

use single-ended mode

use 2-wire transmitters with a common power supply

separate 2-wire and 4-wire transmitters between different
modules

tie 4-wire transmitter and/or separate power supply grounds
together

Affect of Common Mode Voltage on Inputs

If common mode voltage exceeds +14.25V on any input, channel to
channel crosstalk can occur. All channel input data in the
programmable controller data table could be invalid. Incorrect
overrange and underrange bits could also occur
