Installation Instructions ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter Modules, Series A Catalog number 1738-VHSC24M23 The ArmorPOINT® I/O family (Bulletin 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.) The I/O connector is sealed M23 style. The mounting base ships with the module. The 1738-VHSC24M23 module is shown below.

ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter 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 24V DC Very High Speed Counter Modules, Series A Mount the I/O Base To mount the ArmorPOINT I/O base on a wall or panel, use the screw holes provided in the ArmorPOINT base. IMPORTANT The ArmorPOINT I/O module must be mounted on a grounded metal mounting plate or other conductive surface. A mounting illustration for the ArmorPOINT base with an adapter is shown below. Adapter 1.9 in. 47.2 mm 2.0 in. 50 mm 0.87 in. 22 mm 2.0 in. 50 mm 0.87 in. 22 mm 2.0 in. 50 mm 4.02 in. 102 mm 1.
ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter 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 24V DC Very High Speed Counter Modules, Series A Install the ArmorPOINT Very High Speed Counter Module To install the ArmorPOINT Very High Speed Counter module, proceed as follows. 1. Using a bladed screwdriver, rotate the keyswitch on the mounting base clockwise until the number 2 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.
ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter Modules, Series A Wire the Very High Speed Counter Module 7 Following are wiring instructions for the ArmorPOINT Very High Speed Counter module.
ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter 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. This ArmorPOINT I/O input/output module produces 6 or 10 bytes of input data (scanner Rx - status). It consumes 2 or 4 bytes of I/O data (scanner Tx). See the 1738 ArmorPOINT adapter User Manual, publication 1734-UM016, for specific parameter information.
ArmorPOINT 24V DC Very High Speed Counter Modules, Series A 9 Note that when a configuration is sent to the module, it is checked for consistency before being applied. If an error is found in the configuration, the PE bit is asserted and the module retains its previous configuration. Monitor this PE bit with your user program to isolate any problems an improperly configured module may have.
