Rockwell Automation 1746-NO8V SLC 500 8-Point Analog Output Module - Manual (Page 14)

14 SLC 500 8-Point Analog Output Module
Publication 1746-IN026A-EN-P - July 2003
Configuration
The module operates in Class 1 or Class 3 mode. This section describes how to
configure the module for Class 1 operation. Class 1 provides basic data output with
no user scaling. No configuration is required. This mode is compatible with the
1746-NO4 module.
1. Using RSLogix 500, assign the module to a slot in the I/O Configuration.
Select the module from the displayed list. If the module is not listed, select
OTHER at the bottom of the list and enter the module’s ID code, shown
below.
2. Control each channel’s signal level using Output Words 0 through 7
(addressed O:e.0 through O:e.7, where e is the slot number). The data
values and corresponding signal levels are shown in the following table.
TIP
Class 3 allows you to select data formats, scale limits, ramping,
clamping, alarming, safe state options and alarm latching. For
more information regarding these features, refer to the SLC 500
8-Point Analog Output Modules User Manual, publication
1746-UM026.
TIP
If using Auto Configuration (allowed for SLC 5/03 and
higher) to configure the chassis containing this module,
the module will be in Class 1 mode.
TIP
RSLogix 500 version 6.10 (and later) includes an
advanced configuration wizard to assist in configuring
the 1746-NO8 module when Class 3 mode is used.
