TM5CAI8O8VL

Introduction

The TM5CAI8O8VL compact I/O module is a set of 4 TM5 24 Vdc input and output electronic modules assembled together.

This set includes:

o2 analog input electronic module

o1 dummy module

o2 analog output electronic module

For further information, refer to the TM5CAI8O8VL General Description.

General Description

To configure the TM5CAI8O8VL compact I/O module, select the User-Defined Parameters tab.

This table describes the General parameters of the TM5CAI8O8VL compact I/O module:

Parameter	Value	Default Value	Description
Module address	0...250	0	The address is automatically set when adding the compact I/O modules. The address value depends on the order of adding the module in the Devices tree. The compact I/O modules does not support the possibility to change the address.

Description

Module address

0...250

The address is automatically set when adding the compact I/O modules. The address value depends on the order of adding the module in the Devices tree.

The compact I/O modules does not support the possibility to change the address.

Set each of the I/O electronic modules individually using the SL.xx - SDEM (SDEM = Short Description of the Electronic Module, like 12In, 6Out, 4AI ±10 V / 0-20 mA / 4-20 mA etc.) folders available.

NOTE:

oSL stands for the position of the electronic module on the compact I/O module.

oxx is the index number of the electronic module position (1, 2, 4, 5).

This table provides the I/O electronic module type associated with the positions 1, 2, 4, 5 on the TM5CAI8O8VL compact I/O module:

I/O Electronic Module Position	Type	Refer to
SL1	4 analog inputs	Configuration of the analog input 4AI ±10 V electronic modules
SL2	4 analog inputs
SL4	4 analog outputs	Configuration of the analog output 4AO ±10 V electronic module
SL5	4 analog outputs

NOTE: SL3 does not appear in the User-Defined Parameters tab as this is the dummy module that cannot be configured.

For further generic descriptions, refer to User-Defined Parameters Tab Description.
