RemoteTermination

BOOL

1756-IT6I and
1756-IT6I2

Indicates if the cold junction sensor is mounted on a remote termination block
when set, rather than on the local terminal block. Needed for proper cold
junction compensation when linearizing thermocouples.

CJDisable

BOOL

1756-IT6I and
1756-IT6I2

Disables the cold junction sensor that turns off cold junction compensation
when linearizing thermocouple inputs.

TempMode

BOOL

1756-IR6I,
1756-IT6I and
1756-IT6I2

Controls the temperature scale to use on the module.

0 = Celsius
1 = Fahrenheit

ProgToFaultEn

BOOL

All outputs

The program to fault enable bit determines how the outputs should behave if a
communication fault occurs while the output module is in the Program mode.
When set, the bit causes the outputs to transition to their programmed Fault
state if a communication fault occurs while in the Program state. If not set,
outputs will remain in their configured Program state despite a communication
fault occurring.

RealTimeSample

INT

All input

Determines how often the input signal is to be sampled in terms of
milliseconds.

CJOffset

REAL

1756-IT6I and
1756-IT6I2

Provides a user-defined offset to add into the read cold-junction sensor value.
Allows a sensor with a built-in bias to be compensated for.

Ch0Config

Struct

All

Master structure beneath which the channel’s configuration parameters
are set.
