Step 9.

If the power supply you are using is 24 VDC, you need to

replace the factoryĆinstalled .25A fuse in the new module

with the .75A fuse that came in the shipping box with the

module. Use a screwdriver to release the fuse holder

located on the Analog Rail module faceplate. Pull the fuse

holder out of the module.
Remove the .25A fuse from the fuse holder and replace it

with the .75A fuse. ReĆinsert the fuse holder into the

module. Turn the screwdriver clockwise while pressing

down on the fuse holder at the same time. The fuse

holder must be flush against the faceplate.

Step 10. Remove the two plug connectors from the faceplate of

the new module by pulling them firmly away from the

faceplate.

Step 11. Place the new module over the pattern drilled and attach

it securely to the panel with #10 or M5 studs or bolts.

Step 12. Attach the original 12Ćpoint and 4Ćpoint connectors with

wiring to the faceplate of the module. Use the stud

marked GND" (ground) on the bottom right flange of the

module to connect a ground wire.

Step 13. Set the Mode" switch on the faceplate to the desired

position.

Step 14. Connect the I/O Rail cable between the Analog Rail

connection labeled Input" and the I/O port. Turn on

power to the Reliance device connected to the Analog

Rail module. Recall that the Mode switch is read each

time the Reliance device connected to the module is

powered up. If applicable, reĆconnect the cable between

the Local I/O Head, or the DCS5000 Remote I/O Head,

and the host.

Step 15. Turn on power to the Analog Rail module Input Power"

connections.

Step 16. Turn on power to the external hardware connected to the

Analog Rail module.

Step 17. Verify that the hardware has been installed correctly.

Before testing, insure that the external hardware cannot

respond to output signals from the Analog Rail module.

WARNING

BE CAREFUL WHEN WRITING TO THE OUTPUTS TO INSURE THAT NO

UNEXPECTED MACHINE MOTION WILL RESULT. FAILURE TO OBSERVE THIS

PRECAUTION COULD RESULT IN BODILY INJURY OR DAMAGE TO EQUIPMENT.

For AutoMate systems, use the APX Point Monitor

function to test the module. You can test the Analog Rail

module output channels by writing a value between 0 and

4095 to those channels and, with an ammeter, verifying

that the output on the terminal points (4Ć20mA) is

proportional. To test input channels, verify that the input

signal in the channel (4Ć20mA) is proportional to an

ammeter reading at the terminal points.
