Using your module in the ControlLogix System

Place your module in any slot of a ControlLogix modular, or modular
expansion chassis.

An analog I/O module translates an analog signal into, or from, a
corresponding digital representation which controllers can easily operate
on for control purposes.

A ControlLogix I/O module mounts in a ControlLogix chassis and uses a
Removable Terminal Block (RTB) to connect all field-side wiring.

Before you install and use your module you should have already:

· installed and grounded a 1756 chassis and power supply.

· ordered and received an RTB for your application.

Important: RTBs are not included with your module purchase.

Specify Allen Bradley Part Number:

1756-TBCH - 36 position screw terminals
1756-TBS6H - 36 position press terminals

Module Installation

and Removal

When installing the module in a chassis, it is not necessary to remove the
terminal blocks from the module. However, if the terminal blocks are
removed, use the write-on label located on the side of the terminal blocks
to identify the module location and type.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge

This module is sensitive to electrostatic discharge.

ATTENTION: Electrostatic discharge can damage integrated
circuits or semiconductors if you touch backplane connector pins.
Follow these guidelines when you handle the module:

· Touch a grounded object to discharge static potential
· Wear an approved wrist-strap grounding device
· Do not touch the backplane connector or connector pins
· Do not touch circuit components inside the module
· If available, use a static-safe work station
· When not in use, keep the module in its static-shield box
