Analog Input Modules 10
Current Ranges
The default range is 4 to 20 mA with user data scaled so that 4 mA corresponds to a count of 0 and
20 mA corresponds to a count of 32000. The other ranges are selected by changing the
configuration parameters using the IC641 configurator software or the Hand-Held Programmer.
The range can be configured so that the input range is 0 to 20 mA with user data scaled so that 0
mA corresponds to a count of 0 and 20 mA corresponds to a count of 32000. Full 12-bit resolution
is available over the 4 to 20 and 0 to 20 mA ranges.
A 4 to 20 mA Enhanced range can also be selected. When this range is selected, 0 mA corresponds
to a count of –8000, 4 mA corresponds to a count of 0 (zero) and 20 mA corresponds to a count of
+32000. The Enhanced range uses the same hardware as the 0 to 20 mA range but automatically
provides 4 to 20 mA range scaling with the exception that negative digital values are provided to
the user for input current levels between 4 mA and 0 mA. This gives you the capability of
selecting a low alarm limit that detects when the input current falls from 4 mA to 0 mA, which
provides for open-wire fault detection in 4 to 20 mA applications. High and Low alarm limits are
available on all ranges. Ranges can be configured on a per channel basis. The module also reports
module status and user-side supply status to the CPU.
Location in System
This module can be installed in any I/O slot of a 5 or 10-slot baseplate in a Series 90-30 PLC
system.
References Used
The number of 16-Channel Analog Current Input modules which may be installed in a system
depends on the amount of %AI and %I references available. Each module uses 1 to 16 %AI
references (depending on the number of channels enabled) and from 8 to 40 %I (depending on
alarm status configuration) references.
The available %AI references are: 64 in a Model 311, Model 313, and Model 323 system, 128
in a Model 331 system, 1024 in a Model 340 and 341 system, and 2048 in a Model 351 and
Model 352 system.
The maximum number of 16-Channel Analog Current Input modules which may be installed in a
system are:
H 4 in a Model 311, Model 313, and Model 323 system
H 8 in a Model 331 system
H 12 in a Model 340 and Model 341 system
H 51 in a Model 351 and Model 352 system
When planning the module configuration for your application you must also consider the load
capacity of the installed power supply and the total load requirements of all modules that are
installed in the baseplate.
Refer to the Series 90-30 Programmable Controller Installation Manual, GFK-0356 for details on
power supplies and module load requirements.
Refer to data sheet GFK-0867C, or later revision for product standards and general specifications.
[ In the presence of severe RF interference (IEC 801-3, 10V/m), accuracy may be degraded to ±5% FS.

Analog values are scaled over the range of the converter. Factory calibration adjusts the analog
value per bit (resolution) to a multiple of full scale (that is, 4 µA/bit). This calibration leaves a
normal 12-bit converter with 4000 counts (normally 212 = 4096 counts). The data is then scaled
with the 4000 counts over the analog range. For example, the data to the A/D converter for the
16-Channel Analog Current Input is scaled as shown in the following figure.

Parame- Description
ter
Enter a number from 1* through 16. This number represents the number of channels to be converted.
Active Channels are scanned in sequential, contiguous order, with channel No. 1
Channel being the first channel scanned. If more than eight channels are selected, a second detail screen will be
displayed to allow you to enter data in channels 9 through 16.
The first Reference Address field contains the reference address for %AI data. The address points to the
Reference location in %AI memory where input data to the module begins. Each
Address channel provides 16 bits of analog input data as an integer value from 0 to 32,760 or
–8,000 to 32,760, depending on the range type selected.
The second Reference Address field contains the reference address for %I data. The
Reference address points to the location in %I memory where status information from the module
Address begins. You can select the number of %I status locations reported to the PLC by editing
the value in the %I Size field.
Enter the number of %I locations reported to the PLC. Choices are 8, 16, 24, 32, or 40.
The data is brought back in the following format:
First eight %I locations: (available for %I SIZE values 8, 16, 24, 32, and 40)
%I Size Third eight %I locations: (available for %I SIZE values 24, 32, and 40)
Parameter Description
%I Size Fifth eight %I locations: (available for %I SIZE value 40)

D %I+32 = Channel No. 13 ALARM LO 0 = above limit; 1 = below or equal to limit.
D %I+33 = Channel No. 13 ALARM HI: 0 = below limit; 1 = above or equal to limit.
D %I+34 = Channel No. 14 ALARM LO: 0 = above limit; 1 = below or equal to limit.
D %I+35 = Channel No. 14 ALARM HI: 0 = below limit; 1 = above or equal to limit.
D %I+36 = Channel No. 15 ALARM LO: 0 = above limit; 1 = below or equal to limit.
D %I+37 = Channel No. 15 ALARM HI: 0 = below limit; 1 = above or equal to limit.
D %I+38 = Channel No. 16 ALARM LO: 0 = above limit; 1 = below or equal to limit.
D %I+39 = Channel No. 16 ALARM HI: 0 = below limit; 1 = above or equal to limit.
Range Select the type of input range and the ranges. Choices are 4 -20mA,* 0-20mA, or 4-20mA+.
In the 4 to 20mA default range, input current values ranging from 4 to 20mA report 0 to 32,000 integer
values to the CPU. In the 0 to 20mA range, input current values ranging from 0 to
20mA report 0 to 32,000 integer values to the CPU over an input current range of 0 to 20mA.
The enhanced 4 to 20mA range operates like the default 4 to 20mA range, except that negative values are
reported when the input current drops below 4mA. In this mode, if 0mA is input,
the value reported to the PLC is –8,000.
Alarm Low Enter a value that causes an alarm low indication to be passed to the PLC. Each channel has
a low limit alarm value (ALARM LO), which causes %I points to be set. Values entered
without a sign are assumed to be positive. Value checking should be done to determine if
the alarm low values are allowed for the appropriate range. The values allowed are:
* Default selection.
