I/A Series Remote Terminal Unit (RTU)
RTU50 Input/Output Modules
The I/A Series RTU50 product line includes an extensive family of input/output modules that provide
connections to a wide range of field devices. From oil and gas applications to electricity monitoring and
control, the I/A Series RTU50 provides an I/O solution tailored to the demanding needs of the SCADA user.
Key features of the I/O modules include:
Software configurable digital inputs
High security control output logic boards with
check-before-operate control execution

Configurable output relay combinations as
individual paired or multiple relays.
The I/A Series RTU50 family of discrete I/O modules
comprises:
Multiple I/O Module (24 V, 48 V, or 129 V
versions)
20 Channel Analog Input Module (standard,
isolated)
4 Analog/32 Digital Input Module (24 V to 129 V
selectable via jumper settings)

12 Relay Output Module (electrically latched,
magnetically latched, or 10 Amp relay version)
4 Channel Analog Output Module.
The flexible, modular design of the I/A Series RTU50
allows any combination of these input/output
modules within a single Remote Terminal Unit (RTU);
thus requirements from a few I/O points to a several
hundred can be economically and simply
accommodated.
PSS 21H-8C6 B4

The I/O modules are also designed for easy

maintenance. Disconnect links with test points are
provided on each side for inputs and outputs;
termination boards are removable, allowing logic
cards to be withdrawn without disconnecting field
wiring; and module operating parameters are
available as RTU database points.
The I/O modules meets the spectrum of SCADA
discrete I/O requirements that can be user configured
to match the application. Whether you need to
control a circuit breaker, a transformer, or a flow
control valve, measure high frequency Sequence of
Events, or simply monitor a limit switch, the RTU50
promotes an economical, reliable, and secure
solution.

The subsystem optically isolates, filters, and protects

against surge transients; it also interfaces the contact
information to the on-board microprocessor. Digital
input circuits employ contact bounce elimination
circuitry, which rejects noisy contact transitions until
the input signal has been stable for a period of
2 msec. Variants of the module provide customers
with a selection of 24 V, 48 V, and 129 V nominal
status input voltages.
variations.
Features
Key features include:
Removable plug-connected termination board
RUN/FAIL LED indicator
Module operating conditions available as RTU
database points
The 24 digital inputs are grouped into three groups of

8. Each group shares a common terminal which
accepts common positive or common negative.
PSS 21H-8C6 B4
Page 3
Digital inputs are scanned once every millisecond

and may be time tagged for Sequence of Events
processing if required. Each of the digital inputs may
be individually configured as Accumulators,
Momentary Change Detection inputs, Status inputs,
or a combination of these. Digital input types may be
intermixed within a module. Configuration data
determines the treatment of each input.
Analog Inputs
The subsystem performs the data sampling and
processing for all analog input points. The subsystem
provides protection against surge transients and
noise, delivering a multiplexed sample to the analogto-digital converter.
The analog input subsystem consists of an amplifier
and an analog-to-digital converter. The circuitry
provides a multiplexed sample to the analog-todigital converter, which converts the signal to a 12-bit
plus sign word. These results are then stored in
shared memory for access by the I/A Series RTU50
Master Processor Module via the Electrobus
interface. Automatic zero drift correction is provided
by the on-board microprocessor. Zero and full scale
voltage references are available as internal database
points, enabling access by the Master Station.
Digital Outputs
The digital output subsystem within the Multiple I/O
Module provides security and control for all digital
outputs. The 8 relays of the Multiple I/O Module are
individually isolated contacts.
The subsystem contains source and sink drivers for
each relay which may be driven as fixed length pulse,
variable length pulse or latched outputs.
Configuration data determines the treatment of each
relay.
Two-Pass Operation
During pass 1, the on-board microprocessor accepts
command data from the I/A Series RTU50 Master
Processor Module through shared memory. The
validity of the command is confirmed and then the

hardware is checked on the output driver circuits. If
all tests succeed, feedback of the command is sent
to the Master Processor Module.
During pass 2, the Master Processor Module sends
the execute command and the RTU50 Multiple I/O
Module drives the required relays. The RTU50
Multiple I/O Module automatically times the duration
of pulse outputs and turns the required relays off.

Module Description
The 12 Relay Digital Output subsystem provides
security and control for all digital outputs. The
12 Relay Digital Output Module consists of an onboard microprocessor and security circuits mounted
on a logic board with a plug and terminal assembly.
The relay outputs are determined by a customers
selection of relay platform boards. Among the
available options is a choice between electrically
latched relays, magnetically latched relays, and high
current (10 Amp) relays.
A control ISOLATE/ENABLE switch on the front panel
allows servicing of the controlled equipment without
risking remote operation. An external switch can also
be wired from the power supply to simultaneously
disable all digital output boards.
The 12 Relay Digital Output Module contains an onboard microprocessor with associated RAM and
ROM. Configuration data from the I/A Series RTU50
Master Processor Module determines the treatment
of each output port by the on-board processor.
Two-Pass Operation
During pass 1, the on-board microprocessor accepts
command data from the I/A Series RTU50 Master
Processor Module through shared memory. The
validity of the command is confirmed and then the
hardware is checked on the output driver circuits. If
all tests succeed, feedback of the command is sent
to the I/A Series RTU50 Master Processor Module.
During pass 2, the I/A Series RTU50 Master
Processor Module sends the execute command and
the 12 Relay Digital Output Module drives the
required relays. The 12 Relay Digital Output Module
automatically times the duration of pulse outputs and
turns the necessary relay off.

Disconnect links for each output with test points

Optical Isolation
The digital-to-analog converters are serially linked to
the rest of the module via optical isolators. Power is
supplied from an external source, which results in an
electrically isolated interface to the external devices.
This design also sustains outputs, even in the event
of the RTU or module failing.
Internal Monitoring
Figure 4. Output Modules Front Panel
Each analog output has two internal alarm points

associated with it. If the external voltage source fails,
or the current loop is open circuit to the output, the
on-board processor is notified via optically isolated
digital inputs. These inputs are then passed to the
Master Processor Module, to be made available for
PSS 21H-8C6 B4
Page 9
scanning if required by the SCADA Master Station.

An operator can be notified if an analog device has
been disconnected from the RTU, or if the external
voltage source has failed, enabling problems in the
field to be located remotely.
Each output is configurable as 4 to 20, 0 to 10, or 0
to 16 mA. Using 12-bit resolution, it is possible to get
up to 4000 steps within the output range.

Physical Size
Each plug-in module requires frame space of 71.12
mm. Modules are assemblies of one or more printed
circuit boards. These modules plug into a backplane
(Electrobus) via a DIN 41612 connector and are
double Eurocard size (233.4 mm x 149 mm).
DIN 41612 connectors are also fitted to the front
edge of the PCB to provide connection to the
terminal board assembly.
