1492 AIFMs for Analog I/O Modules
Introduction
As an alternative to buying RTBs and connecting the wires yourself, you can
buy a wiring system that connects to I/O modules through pre-wired and
pre-tested cables.
The combinations include the following:
• Analog interface modules (AIFMs) mount on DIN rails to provide
the output terminal blocks for the I/O module. Use the AIFMs with the
pre-wired cables that match the I/O module to the interface module.
Feed-through
and fusible AIFMs let you customize the wiring system
to your application. The fused AIFMs have 24V DC blown fuse
indicators to locate and replace blown fuses.
For a complete list of the AIFMs available for use with ControlLogix
analog I/O modules, see the table on
.
• Pre-wired cables have a pre-wired RTB on one end to connect to the
front of an analog I/O module and a D-shell connector on the other
end to plug into a D-shell terminal.
The D-shell connectors, with either 15 or 25 pins, have a slide-locking
mechanism for a secure connection.

ControlLogix analog I/O modules, see the table on

IMPORTANT
The ControlLogix system has been agency certified using only
the ControlLogix RTBs (1756-TBCH, 1756-TBNH, 1756-TBSH
and 1756-TBS6H). Any application that requires agency
certification of the ControlLogix system using other wiring
termination methods may require application specific approval
by the certifying agency.
