1-6 Overview Hardware Features The RTD/resistance module provides connections for four 3-wire inputs for any combination of RTD and resistance input devices. Channels are wired as differential inputs. The illustration below shows the hardware features of the module.
Overview System Overview 1-7 The modules communicate to the local controller or communication adapter through the 1762 bus interface. The modules also receive 5 and 24V dc power through the bus interface. System Operation At power-up, the module performs a check of its internal circuits, memory, and basic functions. During this time, the module status LED remains off. If no faults are found during power-up diagnostics, the module status LED is turned on.
1-8 Overview Module Operation As shown in the block diagram below, each input channel of the module consists of an RTD/resistance connection that accepts excitation current; a sense connection that detects lead wire resistance; and a return connection. The signals are multiplexed to an A/D converter that reads the RTD or resistance value and the lead wire resistance.

2-8 Installation and Wiring Field Wiring Connections System Wiring Guidelines Consider the following when wiring your system: General • This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting surface such as a metal panel. Additional grounding connections from the module’s mounting tabs or DIN rail (if used) are not required unless the mounting surface cannot be grounded. • Channels are isolated from one another by ±10V dc maximum. • Do not use the modules NC terminals as connection points.
Installation and Wiring 2-9 • Keep shield connection to ground as short as possible. • If noise persists for a device, try grounding the opposite end of the cable. (You can only ground one end at a time.) • Refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1, for additional information. RTD Wiring Considerations Since the operating principle of the RTD module is based on the measurement of resistance, take special care when selecting your input cable.
2-10 Installation and Wiring Wiring the Finger-Safe Terminal Block ATTENTION ! Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into a module could cause damage when power is applied. Once wiring is complete, ensure the module is free of all metal fragments. When wiring the terminal block, keep the finger-safe cover in place. 1. Route the wire under the terminal pressure plate. You can use the stripped end of the wire or a spade lug. The terminals will accept a 6.35 mm (0.25 in.) spade lug. 2.
Installation and Wiring 2-11 Wire Size and Terminal Screw Torque Each terminal accepts up to two wires with the following restrictions: Wire Type Wire Size Terminal Screw Torque Solid Cu-90°C (194°F) #14 to #22 AWG 0.904 Nm (8 in-lbs) Stranded Cu-90°C (194°F) #16 to #22 AWG 0.904 Nm (8 in-lbs) Wiring Input Devices to the Module ATTENTION ! To prevent shock hazard, care should be taken when wiring the module to analog signal sources.
2-12 Installation and Wiring To wire your module follow these steps: 1. At each end of the cable, strip some casing to expose the individual wires. 2. Trim the signal wires to 2-inch (5 cm) lengths. Strip about 3/16 inch (5 mm) of insulation away to expose the end of the wire. ATTENTION Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into a module could cause damage at power up. ! 3.

Chapter 3 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration After installing the 1762-IR4 RTD/resistance input module, you must configure it for operation, usually using the programming software compatible with the controller (for example, RSLogix 500™). Once configuration is complete and reflected in ladder logic, you will need to get the module up and running and then verify its operation.
3-2 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Input Image The input image file represents data words and status words. Input words 0 through 3 hold the input data that represents the value of the analog inputs for channels 0 through 3. These data words are valid only when the channel is enabled and there are no errors. Input words 4 and 5 hold the status bits. To receive valid status information, the channel must be enabled.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-3 Input Data File The input data table allows you to access RTD input module read data for use in the control program, via word and bit access. The data table structure is shown in table below. Table 3.
3-4 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Input Data Not Valid Condition The general status bits S0 to S3 also indicate whether or not the input data for a particular channel, 0 through 3, is being properly converted (valid) by the module. This “invalid data” condition can occur (bit set) when the download of a new configuration to a channel is accepted by the module (proper configuration) but before the A/D converter can provide valid (properly configured) data to the MicroLogix 1200 controller.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-5 Over-Range Flag Bits (O0 to O3) Over-range bits for channels 0 through 3 are contained in word 5, even-numbered bits. They apply to all input types. When set (1), the over-range flag bit indicates an RTD temperature that is greater than the maximum allowed temperature or a resistance input that is greater than the maximum allowed resistance for the module.
3-6 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Configuration Data File The configuration data file is shown below. Bit definitions are provided in Channel Configuration on page 3-7. Detailed definitions of each of the configuration parameters follows the table. TIP Normal channel configuration is done using programming software. In that case, it is not necessary to know the meaning of the bit location. However, some systems allow configuration to be changed by the control program.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-7 The following table shows the basic arrangement of the configuration data file. Table 3.

Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-9 Enabling or Disabling a Channel (Bit 15) Bit 15 enables or disables each of the six channels individually. The module only scans those channels that are enabled. Enabling a channel forces it to be recalibrated before it measures input data. Turning a channel off results in the channel data being set to zero. TIP When a channel is not enabled, the A/D converter provides no input to the controller. This speeds up the system response of the active channels.

Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-13 Engineering Units x 1 Data Format If you select engineering units x 1 as the data format for an RTD input, the module scales input data to the actual temperature values for the selected RTD type per RTD standard. It expresses temperatures in 0.1° C units. For resistance inputs, the module expresses resistance in 0.1Ω units, for all ranges except the 150Ω range. For the latter, resistance is expressed in 0.01Ω units.
3-14 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Linear Relationship Between Temperature and PID Counts Counts +16383 °C -200 ˚C +850 ˚C The amount over and under user range (full-scale range -410 to +16793) is also included in the signed integer provided to the controller. Allen-Bradley controllers, such as the MicroLogix 1500, use this range in their PID equations. See Determining Effective Resolution and Range on page 3-20.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-15 Selecting Temperature Units/Mode (Bit 7) The module supports two different linearized, scaled temperature ranges for RTDs, degrees Celsius (°C) and degrees Fahrenheit (°F). You can select the type that is appropriate for your application by setting bit 7 in the channel configuration word. Bit 7 is ignored for resistance input types or when raw/proportional, scaled-for-PID, or percent data formats are used.
3-16 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Selecting Cyclic Lead Compensation (Bit 4) For each channel, the module measures lead resistance in one of two ways. Set bit 4 to 0 to enable measurement and compensation of lead resistance every five minutes. One channel is measured per module update to limit the impact to channel throughput. You can also implement a lead wire calibration cycle any time, at your command, by enabling and then disabling this bit in your control program.

3-20 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Selecting Enable/Disable Cyclic Autocalibration (Word 4, Bit 0) Configuration word 4, bit 0 allows you to configure the module to perform an autocalibration cycle of all enabled channels once every 5 minutes. Cyclic calibration functions to reduce offset and gain drift errors due to temperature changes within the module. Setting this bit to 1 disables cyclic calibration, the default (0) enables the autocalibration function.

3-26 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration The table below identifies the number of significant bits used to represent the input data for each available filter frequency. The number of significant bits is defined as the number of bits that will have little or no jitter due to noise, and is used in defining the effective resolution. Note that the resolutions provided by the filters apply to the raw/proportional data format only. Table 3.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Determining Module Update Time 3-27 The module update time is defined as the time required for the module to sample and convert the input signals of all enabled input channels and provide the resulting data values to the processor. The module sequentially samples the channels in a continuous loop as shown below.
3-28 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Module update time can be calculated by obtaining the sum of all enabled channel update times. Channel update times include channel scan time, channel switching time, and reconfiguration time. EXAMPLE 1. Module Update Time with all channels enabled and configured with 10 Hz filter = 4 x 303 ms = 1212 ms 2.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-29 Calculating Module Update Time with Autocalibration Enabled The following example illustrates how to determine module update time with autocalibration enabled. EXAMPLE zews Two Channels Enabled with Cyclic Calibration Channel 0 Input: 100Ω Platinum 385, 1.0 mA source with 60 Hz Filter Channel 1 Input: 100Ω Platinum 385, 0.5 mA source with 60 Hz Filter From Table 3.15, Channel Update Time vs. Filter Frequency, on page 3-27: 1.
3-30 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Effects of Cyclic Lead Wire Compensation on Module Update Time The 1762-IR4 module provides the option to enable lead wire compensation for each channel. This feature improves measurement accuracy for 3- and 4-wire RTDs by compensating for the resistance of the RTD lead wire. Lead wire compensation occurs automatically on a mode change from Program-to-Run for all configured channels regardless of the type of RTD being used.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration 3-31 Calculating Module Update Time with Cyclic Lead Wire Compensation Enabled The following example illustrates how to determine module update time with cyclic lead wire compensation enabled. EXAMPLE Two Channels Configured with Cyclic Lead Wire Compensation Enabled Channel 0 Input: 100Ω Platinum 385 with 60 Hz Filter (use 60 Hz filter for lead wire) Channel 1 Input: 100Ω Platinum 385 with 250 Hz Filter (use 250 Hz filter for lead wire) From Table 3.
3-32 Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Impact of Autocalibration and Lead Wire Compensation on Module Startup Regardless of the selection of the Enable/Disable Cyclic Calibration and Enable/Disable Cyclic Lead Calibration functions, a cycle of both of these functions occurs automatically on a mode change from Program-to-Run and on subsequent module startups/initialization for all configured channels.
Module Data, Status, and Channel Configuration Effects of Autocalibration on Accuracy 3-33 The module performs autocalibration to correct for drift errors over temperature. Autocalibration occurs immediately following configuration of a previously unselected channel, during power cycle of enable channels and every 5 minutes if so configured. The table below shows module accuracy with and without calibration. Table 3.

Chapter 4 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting This chapter describes module troubleshooting, containing information on: • • • • • • Safety Considerations safety considerations when troubleshooting module vs. channel operation the module’s diagnostic features critical vs. non-critical errors module condition data contacting Rockwell Automation for assistance Safety considerations are an important element of proper troubleshooting procedures.
4-2 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Activating Devices When Troubleshooting When troubleshooting, never reach into the machine to actuate a device. Unexpected machine motion could occur. Stand Clear of the Equipment When troubleshooting any system problem, have all personnel remain clear of the equipment. The problem could be intermittent, and sudden unexpected machine motion could occur. Have someone ready to operate an emergency stop switch in case it becomes necessary to shut off power.
Diagnostics and Troubleshooting 4-3 Internal diagnostics are performed at both levels of operation. When detected, module error conditions are immediately indicated by the module status LED. Both module hardware and channel configuration error conditions are reported to the controller. Channel over-range or under-range conditions are reported in the module’s input data table. Module hardware errors are reported in the controller’s I/O status file. Refer to your controller manual for details.
4-4 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Possible causes for an out-of-range condition include: • The temperature is too hot or too cold for the RTD being used. • The wrong RTD is being used for the input type selected, or for the configuration that you have programmed. • The input device is faulty. • The signal input from the input device is beyond the scaling range. Open-Wire or Short-Circuit Detection The module performs an open-circuit or short-circuit input test on all enabled channels on each scan.
Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Module Error Definition Table 4-5 Module errors are expressed in two fields as four-digit Hex format with the most significant digit as irrelevant (“don’t care”). The two fields are “Module Error” and “Extended Error Information”. The structure of the module error data is shown below. Table 4.
4-6 Diagnostics and Troubleshooting Extended Error Information Field Check the extended error information field when a non-zero value is present in the module error field. Depending upon the value in the module error field, the extended error information field can contain error codes that are module-specific or common to all 1762 analog modules. TIP If no errors are present in the module error field, the extended error information field will be set to zero.

Appendix C Two’s Complement Binary Numbers The processor memory stores 16-bit binary numbers. Two’s complement binary is used when performing mathematical calculations internal to the processor. Analog input values from the analog modules are returned to the processor in 16-bit two’s complement binary format. For positive numbers, the binary notation and two’s complement binary notation are identical.
C-2 Two’s Complement Binary Numbers Negative Decimal Values In two’s complement notation, the far left position is always 1 for negative values. The equivalent decimal value of the binary number is obtained by subtracting the value of the far left position, 32768, from the sum of the values of the other positions. In the figure below (all positions are 1), the value is 32767 - 32768 = -1.

Glossary The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout this manual. For definitions of terms not listed here refer to Allen-Bradley’s Industrial Automation Glossary, Publication AG-7.1. A/D Converter Refers to the analog to digital converter inherent to the module. The converter produces a digital value whose magnitude is proportional to the magnitude of an analog input signal. attenuation The reduction in the magnitude of a signal as it passes through a system.
2 Glossary common mode voltage range The largest voltage difference allowed between either the positive or negative terminal and analog common during normal differential operation. configuration word Word containing the channel configuration information needed by the module to configure and operate each channel. cut-off frequency The frequency at which the input signal is attenuated 3 dB by a digital filter.
Glossary 3 filter A device that passes a signal or range of signals and eliminates all others. filter frequency The user-selectable frequency for a digital filter. full-scale The magnitude of input over which normal operation is permitted. full-scale range The difference between the maximum and minimum specified analog input values for a device. gain drift Change in full-scale transition voltage measured over the operating temperature range of the module.
4 Glossary full-scale input. See the variation from the straight line due to linearity error (exaggerated) in the example below. Actual Transfer Function Ideal Transfer LSB Least significant bit. The LSB represents the smallest value within a string of bits. For analog modules, 16-bit, two’s complement binary codes are used in the I/O image. For analog inputs, the LSB is defined as the rightmost bit of the 16-bit field (bit 0).
Glossary 5 overall accuracy The worst-case deviation of the digital representation of the input signal from the ideal over the full input range is the overall accuracy. Overall accuracy is expressed in percent of full scale. repeatability The closeness of agreement among repeated measurements of the same variable under the same conditions. resolution The smallest detectable change in a measurement, typically expressed in engineering units (e.g. 1°C) or as a number of bits.
