1-4 Overview
General Diagnostic Features
The analog modules contain diagnostic features that can help you identify the
source of problems that may occur when cycling power or during normal
channel operation.
These power cycle and channel diagnostics are explained in chapter 5.
System Overview
The modules communicate to the controller through the bus interface. The
modules also receive 5 and 24V dc power through the bus interface.
You can install as many analog modules as your power supply can support.
However, the modules may not be located more than eight modules away from
the system power supply.
