Installation
During the installation of STAI (signal transmitter analog input), there are several steps and precautions to consider.
This module is installed together with plastic insulators on a metal plate bracket. This bracket provides a stable platform for the module and ensures correct alignment. The bracket can be further installed on DIN rails, providing a standardized method for installation in industrial environments. Alternatively, STAI modules with insulators can be directly installed on metal plate components and securely fixed to cabinets or other suitable surfaces with bolts.
For wiring, it is recommended to use 18 AWG wires, preferably shielded twisted pair. These cables are designed to minimize electromagnetic interference and ensure reliable signal transmission. Using shielded twisted pair cables helps maintain the integrity of analog signals and reduces the risk of noise or signal attenuation.
This component includes wiring terminals for easy connection of analog inputs and outputs. These wiring terminals can serve as interface points for various analog signals supported by the module. The supported analog input types include two wire transmitters, three wire transmitters, four wire transmitters, externally powered transmitters, and voltage inputs with a range of ± 5 V or ± 10 V DC. Similarly, the module supports analog output signals in the current range of 0-20 mA and 0-200 mA.
To ensure proper grounding and minimize interference, I/O cable shielding terminals are provided. This terminal allows for the connection of shielded cables, which helps to protect analog signals from external electrical noise and interference.
By following appropriate installation procedures and utilizing proper wiring and connections, the STAI module can be successfully integrated into the system, achieving reliable analog signal transmission and processing.
Surgery
Power supply: All transmitters connected to the terminal board can use a 24V DC power supply. This power supply ensures stable and reliable power supply for sensors or transducers used in the system.
Input selection: By using jumpers, you can choose between the current and voltage inputs of the STAI module. This flexibility is compatible with various sensors that provide current or voltage output, depending on the specific requirements of your application.
Analog output circuit: The STAI module is equipped with two analog output circuits. A circuit operates within the range of 4-20 mA current and provides a standardized output signal. The second circuit can be configured to operate within a range of 4-20 mA current or a wider range of 0-200 mA through jumpers. The selection of output range depends on the compatibility requirements of the specific application and receiving device or system.
Limitations of TMR or TBAI applications: It should be noted that the terminal board of the STAI module cannot be used for Triple Module Redundancy (TMR) or Terminal Board Analog Input (TBAI) applications. This limitation stems from the fact that there is only one cable connection on the terminal board, which is not sufficient to achieve the redundant or extended input functions typically required in TMR or TBAI settings.
Configuration
It provides configuration options by using jumpers. These jumpers play a crucial role in customizing the functionality of the circuit board according to specific requirements. By referring to the installation diagram, the positions of these jumpers can be identified.
Jumpers J1A to J8A provide the function of selecting the current or voltage input of the terminal board. This flexibility is compatible with different types of input signals and meets the needs of various applications.
Jumpers J1B to J8B determine whether the circuit is connected to the common terminal. The common terminal is used as a reference point or ground for input signals. By adjusting these jumpers, it can be determined whether each input circuit is connected to the common terminal.
To accurately select the input current, jumpers J9A and J10A can be used. These jumpers allow you to choose an input current of 1 mA or 20 mA based on the specific requirements of the system.
In addition, jumpers J9B and J10B can also affect the connection back to the common terminal, further controlling the circuit configuration.
Among the available jumpers, J0 has a unique purpose. Jumper J0 allows for the selection of 20 mA or 200 mA for output 1, providing the necessary flexibility to adapt the output of the terminal board to the required specifications.
Diagnosis
The board integrates diagnostic tests on the terminal board to ensure proper functionality and identify potential issues. These diagnostic tests involve specific mechanisms and devices that enable the board to detect and report faults or hardware incompatibilities. The diagnostic procedure is as follows:
Voltage drop test: The circuit board uses a series resistor to measure the voltage drop at both ends, thereby indicating the output current. By monitoring voltage drop, the I/O processor of the circuit board can evaluate the health status of the output. If either of the two outputs deviates from the expected value or becomes unhealthy, the I/O processor will generate diagnostic alerts or faults. This fault alert will notify users or system administrators that there may be a problem output, enabling them to take appropriate measures to correct the problem.
Cable connector ID device: Each cable connector on the terminal board is equipped with its own ID device. This ID device is an integrated chip that contains basic information, including the serial number of the terminal board, board type, revision number, and connector location (JR, JS, JT). The ID device is a read-only chip, which means it can be queried by the board’s I/O controller to retrieve encoded information.
During the diagnostic process, the I/O controller reads information from the ID device of each cable connector. It compares this information with expected values, which are usually pre programmed or stored in the system. If a mismatch or inconsistency is detected between the read data and the expected value, it indicates a hardware incompatibility between the terminal board and the connected cable. In this case, the I/O controller will generate a hardware incompatibility fault, indicating a mismatch between the terminal board and the connected cables.
Hardware incompatibility faults can alert users or technicians that the current wiring board configuration and connected cables may be incompatible. In this way, they can solve the problem by ensuring the correct cables are used or making necessary adjustments to achieve compatibility.
By integrating these diagnostic tests, it provides a mechanism for detecting potential faults and hardware incompatibilities. These diagnostic programs enable the circuit board to monitor and evaluate the health status of its output, and verify the compatibility between the terminal board and the connecting cables. The generated diagnostic alerts and hardware incompatibility faults can serve as valuable information for troubleshooting and maintenance, helping to quickly identify and resolve any potential issues encountered during circuit board operation.
