DESCRIPTION
 
The Trusted
TM
Dual Analogue Input
module interfaces to 60 single-ended 
field input devices. A wide input 
voltage range and programmable 
thresholds allow the module to be 
used in current source and current 
sink configurations. Comprehensive 
diagnostic tests are performed on 
each input channel, including tests for 
stuck on and stuck off failures. Fault 
tolerance is achieved through Dual 
Redundancy within the same module 
for each of the 60 input channels. 
The module can apply a digital filter to 
each 
input
channel.
Individual
channels can be configured for high 
noise immunity (50Hz or 60Hz 
rejection), low noise immunity (fast 
response), or pass-through operation 
(no filtering). 
Each
input
channel
has
four
configurable state thresholds which 
may be assigned to SOE reporting. A 
change of state triggers an SOE 
entry. The on-board Sequence of 
Events (SOE) reporting has a 
resolution of 1ms. 
Each dual section of the module, 
referred to as a slice, conditions and 
measures 
each
channel
independently. Each slice is opto-
isolated up to 2500V dc. Each slice 
sends its data to a safety layer 
hardware voter that presents the 
information from both slices to the 
Trusted
TM
TMR Processor. When a
fault is detected on a slice of the 
module, 
the
Trusted
TM
TMR
Processor
will
flag
the
error,
indicating the need to replace the 
module. The Trusted
TM
TMR
Processor will continue to use the 
information provided by the remaining 
slice until a replacement module is 
available. Replacement modules can 
be located in a standby slot next to 
the module or in a designated 
SmartSlot 
with
a
temporary
connection to the same Trusted
TM
Termination Assembly.
 
Modules may be placed in any I/O 
module slot in a Trusted
TM
Processor
Chassis or Expander chassis. Once 
the I/O module configuration is set, 
mechanical keying is available on all 
I/O modules to prevent inserting a 
module into an incorrect slot. 
Configuration of the module is carried 
out using the Trusted
TM
Toolset
running
on
an
Engineering
Workstation. Once configured and 
loaded into the Trusted
TM
Controller,
replacement modules are on-line 
educated by the TMR Processor.
