I/O Configuration for Intrinsically Safe Discrete Modules

Overview

This section provides information on the I/O configuration of the intrinsically safe

discrete modules, 140DII33000 and 140DIO33000.

Intrinsically Safe Discrete Input Module

The following is the intrinsically safe discrete input module:

z 140DII33000 (DC, intrinsic safe)

I/O Map Register Assignment

This 8-point input module can be configured as either 8 contiguous discrete input

(1x) references or as one 3x register. The following figure shows an I/O map

I/O Map Status Byte

There is no I/O map status byte associated with this module.

Modsoft Module Zoom Selections

Push <Enter> to display and select the input type. The following figure shows the

input type display.

CAUTION

I/O Mapping Rules

When I/O mapping input modules using discrete (1x) references in remote drops,

users should not split discrete words between drops. The lowest discrete reference

for a drop should start on a word boundary.

Failure to follow these instructions can result in injury or equipment damage.
