7.

Slide the replacement module into the open slot.

8.

Connect the modules together by locking (fully left) the bus levers on the replacement
module and the right-side adjacent module.

9.

Replace the mounting screws (or snap the module onto the DIN rail).

Replacement Part

Terminal block, catalog number 1769-RTBN18 (one per kit).

System Wiring Guidelines

Consider the following when wiring your system:

Do not use the analog module’s NC terminals as connection points.

Channels are isolated from each other.

Use Belden 8761, or equivalent, shielded wire.

Under normal conditions, the drain wire and shield junction must be connected to earth
ground via a panel or DIN rail mounting screw at the analog I/O module end. Keep the
shield connection to ground as short as possible.

(1)

To ensure optimum accuracy, limit overall cable impedance by keeping your cable as
short as possible. Locate the I/O system as close to your sensors or actuators as your
application will permit.

If multiple power supplies are used with analog inputs, the power supply commons must
be connected.

The 1769-IF4I module does not provide loop power for analog inputs. Use a power
supply that matches the input transmitter specifications.

Differential analog inputs are more immune to noise than single-ended analog inputs.

ATTENTION: Use supply wires suitable for 20 °C (68 °F) above surrounding
ambient.

(1)

In environments where high-frequency noise may be present, it may be necessary to directly ground cable shields to earth
at the module end and via a 0.1µF capacitor at the sensor end.
