Inspect Module Switches and Wiring
Inspect the module as follows before installing it.
1. Set the input configuration switches 1 and 2 correctly.
2. Check that wiring connections are OK and no wires are missing
or broken.
3. Tighten terminal connections to secure the wires.
4. Ground the cable shields properly.
5. Securely connect the module’s terminal block.
6. Install the module in its addressed I/O rack slot.
Disconnect Analog Process Control Devices
During the following test procedures, you need to operate the
processor in Run mode. Make sure that analog process control devices
are inoperative as a safety precaution. These devices include the
following:
• proportional valves.
• proportional drives.
• servo amplifiers.
• other analog signal amplifiers that drive analog output devices.
ATTENTION
Care should be taken to avoid connecting a voltage source to a
channel configured for a current input. Improper module
operation or damage to the module can occur.
ATTENTION
Do not attempt to ground the cable at the module’s terminal
block. It does not connect to earth ground. Ground the cable at
one end only, as described in chapter 2.
