TM3AI2H / TM3AI2HG

Introduction

The TM3AI2H (screw terminal block) / TM3AI2HG (spring terminal block) expansion module feature 2 analog input channels with 16-bit resolution.

The channel input types are:

o0...10 V

o-10...+10 V

o0...20 mA

o4...20 mA

For information on the diagnostic codes produced by each input type, refer to Analog I/0 Modules Diagnostics.

For further hardware information, refer to TM3AI2H / TM3AI2HG.

NOTE: If you have physically wired the analog channel for a voltage signal and you configure the channel for a current signal in EcoStruxure Machine Expert, you may damage the analog circuit.

NOTICE

INOPERABLE EQUIPMENT

Verify that the physical wiring of the analog circuit is compatible with the software configuration for the analog channel.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in equipment damage.

Configuring the Module

For each input, you can define:

Input Filter

0...1000

0

Specifies the first order filter time constant (0...10 s) in increments of 10 ms.

Sampling

1ms/Channel

1ms/Channel

Specifies the sampling period of the channel.

Status Enabled

Yes

No

Yes

Enables the diagnostic byte of each channel.

If the status is disabled (value = No), the status bytes IBStatusIW0 and IBStatusIW1 do not contain relevant information.

I/O Mapping Tab

Variables can be defined and named in the I/O Mapping tab. Additional information such as topological addressing is also provided in this tab.
