Installation Instructions ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A (Cat. No. 1738-IA2M12AC3 and -IA2M12AC4) The ArmorPoint I/O family (Cat. no. 1738) consists of modular I/O modules. The sealed IP67 housing of these modules requires no enclosure. (Note that environmental requirements other than IP67 may require an additional appropriate housing.) I/O connectors are sealed M12 AC keyed (micro) styles. The mounting base ships with the module. The 1738-IA2M12AC3 and 1738-IA2M12AC4 modules are shown below.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A Important User Information Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at http://www.ab.com/manuals/gi) describes some important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A ATTENTION 3 Environment and Enclosure This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 meters without derating. This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A ATTENTION Preventing Electrostatic Discharge This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment: • Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static. • Wear an approved grounding wriststrap. • Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards. • Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A 5 Install the mounting base as follows: 1. Lay out the required points as shown above in the drilling dimension drawing. 2. Drill the necessary holes for #8 (M4) machine or self-tapping screws. 3. Mount the base using #8 (M4) screws. 4. Ground the system using the ground lug connection. (The ground lug connection is also a mounting hole.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A Install the ArmorPoint AC Input Module To install the ArmorPoint AC input module, proceed as follows. 1. Using a bladed screwdriver, rotate the keyswitch on the mounting base clockwise until the number 8 aligns with the notch in the base. 2. Position the module vertically above the mounting base. The module will bridge two bases. Module will bridge two bases. 1738-IA2M12AC3/A In 12V ac 0 1 MOD NET 0 1 43777 3.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A Wire the AC Input Modules 7 Following are wiring instructions for the ArmorPoint AC input modules.
ArmorPoint AC Input Modules, Series A Communicate With Your Module I/O messages are sent to (consumed) and received from (produced) the ArmorPoint I/O modules. These messages are mapped into the processor’s memory. These ArmorPoint I/O input modules produce 1 byte of input data (scanner Rx - status). They do not consume I/O data (scanner Tx).
