Chapter 1 Controllers and I/O Modules
The following dialog box shows how, by accessing the properties of an analog
output module, the output signal range can be modified and the high/low
voltage/current limits set for each analog output channel.
The Logix analog output modules also provide scaling to convert the
engineering units to the required raw values and configuration of the alarm
limits via the Alarm Configuration Tab.
These modules are supplied with standard calibration but can be recalibrated
on a module or channel-by-channel basis for greater accuracy in applications.
The 1756-OF8H module includes the Highway Addressable Remote
Transducer (HART) protocol that provides additional field data and device
status information from HART devices connected to this module.
Addressing of the Siemens S5 Analog Modules is done by switches on the side
of the modules.
Addressing of Logix Analog modules is done automatically. When an analog
module is added, the tags that address the module are automatically created, as
shown in the following dialog box.
