Analog HART Modules

Module Operation

The 1756sc-IF8H module’s input circuitry consists of eight differential-
ended analog inputs, multiplexed to two A/D converters. The A/D
converters read the analog input signals and convert them to floating point
values.

The 1756sc-OF8H has 8 channels that are routed to two quad D/A
converters which output the control signal.

HART communication is independent of the analog operation. Each of the
eight channels are multiplexed to one modem.

Compatibility with Current Devices and Cables

The modules are compatible with a variety of voltage and current devices
with an input or output 0-5V, 0-10V, ±10V, 0-20mA, and 4-20mA.

To minimize interference from radiated electrical noise, we recommend
twisted-pair and highly shielded cables such as the following:
