Product Design
|
FLEX I/O modules offer 4 through 32 I/O each. You can plug together a maximum of eight I/O modules into a FLEX I/O assembly, for a maximum of 256 I/O per assembly. The I/O modules are interfaced to the I/O link through an I/O adapter module with a built-in 24V DC input power supply. The I/O modules receive power from the adapter/power-supply through the backplane. Two 120/230V AC-to-24V DC power supplies are also available for powering the adapter/power-supply.
The backplane is formed by modular terminal bases that also provide terminal connection points for I/O wiring. I/O circuitry is packaged in separate I/O modules. Each I/O module plugs into an individual terminal base. The I/O adapter module plugs into the end terminal base. You snap the I/O adapter and the terminal bases onto a DIN rail and plug them together. FLEX I/O assemblies can be mounted horizontally or vertically.
The FLEX I/O family consists of modular components that snap together and mount onto a DIN rail to form the FLEX I/O assembly:
- I/O Adapter. A FLEX I/O adapter module provides an interface for communication between the I/O modules and a scanner port across an I/O link. Each terminal base provides backplane connections between the I/O adapter module and I/O modules.
- I/O Module. FLEX I/O modules plug into a terminal base, and connect to the I/O bus and field devices. Removal and Insertion Under Power (RIUP) makes it possible to replace a failed module without disturbing the field wiring, other I/O modules, or system power.
- Terminal Base. Each 1794 FLEX I/O module requires a terminal base that snaps onto the DIN rail to the right of the I/O adapter. The terminal bases provide terminal connection points for I/O wiring and plug together to form the backplane. Available with screw or spring terminations.
- Accessories. Choose products such as extender cables or the panel mount kit to provide added application flexibility.
- Power Supply. Two 120V-AC-to-24V-DC power supplies are available for powering the adapter/power-supply.

Digital I/O Modules
The FLEX I/O module plugs into the terminal base, connecting to the I/O bus and field devices. Since there is no direct wiring to the I/O module, you can remove and insert modules under power, enabling you to change modules without disturbing field wiring, other I/O modules, or system power. This eliminates costly downtime and the inefficiencies of restarting a system.
Features

Analog, Thermocouple, and RTD I/O Modules
- Individually configurable channels allow the module to be used with a variety of sensors.
- Selectable input filters on many modules allow you to select from several different filter frequencies for each channel that best meets the performance needs of your application. Lower filter settings provide greater noise rejection and resolution. Higher filter settings provide faster performance. Note: Isolated analog modules have four filter selections; the thermocouple module has ten; and the combined RTD/thermocouple module has eight.
- Single-ended or differential inputs depending on module. Analog modules have single-ended inputs while isolated analog and temperature modules have differential inputs. Single-ended voltage sensors reduce costs. Differential inputs are typically more noise immune.
- On-board scaling is performed by the temperature modules and is user-configurable for either °C, °F, or mV. This eliminates the need to scale the data in the user program.
- Internal calibration is performed in the analog modules (1794-IE8, 1794-OE4, and 1794-IE4XOE2). User calibration is required for isolated analog and temperature modules. All modules come factory calibrated.
- Conformal coated (K) versions of standard modules.
- Extreme environment (XT) versions of standard modules.
- HART (Highway Addressable Remote Transmitter) analog modules (1794-IE8H and 1794-OE8H) combine analog and HART connectivity in one module. No external hardware is required to access the HART signal. These modules support FDT-compatible asset management software to HART field devices. Also, HART commands can be transmitted as unscheduled messages.
FLEX Analog Input Modules
- Each channel of the three 1794-IE8 modules and three 1794-IF4I modules is individually configurable for the desired input range. The 1794-IE12 channels are configurable in pairs.

| The 12/24V DC 4 Input Pulse Counter Module performs high-speed scaling, calculation operations for various industrial applications. Typical applications include quantity counting, speed calculation, and flow monitoring. All the input devices for the pulse counter module should be able to provide the input signal of 6V amplitude. The 1794-IP4 has a 6V minimum threshold for an input On condition and a maximum 3V threshold for an input Off condition. The region between 3V and 6V is a transitional one and therefore requires input signals to pass cleanly through that region, otherwise module operation cannot be guaranteed. | |||||
| ∆ As of FlexLogix firmware revision 11, you can install the 1794-VHSC module (and any other module that uses extended data transfers) on the local or extended-local DIN rails of a FlexLogix system. Previous revisions of the controller firmware support these modules only as remote ControlNet I/O. ⋆ Auxiliary terminal strips are required when using the 1794-TBN or 1794-TBNF for this catalog number. |

Power Supplies
The I/O modules are interfaced to the I/O link through an I/O adapter module with a built-in 24V DC input power supply. The I/O modules receive power from the adapter/power supply through the backplane. The 120V AC to 24V DC power supply (1794-PS13 or 1794-PS3) is also available for powering the adapter/power supply. (When providing power for the 1794-FLA extended-local I/O FlexLogix adapter, treat the adapter as a communication adapter, not as an I/O module.)
