The 470 Analog Output Module

9.7.1

Design

The module is designed as a plug-in PCB for central controllers and
expansion units with a backplane connector and with a blade connector to
accept a plug-in front connector. You can directly connect the process signal
lines to the front connector, which is available separately, with screw or
crimp terminals.

Situated on each module is an addressing switch with six rockers to set the
module address.

The modules are protected by covers on both sides.

On analog output modules, the last analog value to be output is retained.

Modules which are switched off can be removed or inserted during operation.
If this is not necessary, operate the module with the enable input switched
off.
