2 మాడ్యూల్ ఇన్స్టాలేషన్
- Carefully slide the 1746-NI4 module into an empty slot in the SLC 500 chassis until it clicks into place.
- Ensure the module is securely seated in the backplane connector.
3. వైరింగ్ కనెక్షన్లు
Refer to the wiring diagram located on the inside of the module's front cover (Figure 2) for correct terminal assignments. The 1746-NI4 supports both current and voltage inputs. Configure the input range using the DIP switches (SW1) as shown in Figure 3.
- ప్రస్తుత ఇన్పుట్: For 4-20mA or 0-20mA signals, connect the analog signal wires to the designated input terminals.
- వాల్యూమ్tagఇ ఇన్పుట్: For 0-10VDC or -10VDC to +10VDC signals, connect the analog signal wires to the designated input terminals.
- Ensure all connections are tight and secure to prevent intermittent signals.
4. DIP Switch Configuration (SW1)
The 1746-NI4 module features DIP switches (SW1) to select the desired input range for each channel. Consult the label on the module (Figure 3) for the specific switch settings corresponding to current or voltagఇ ఇన్పుట్లు.
| SW1 స్థానం | ఇన్పుట్ పరిధి | వివరణ |
|---|---|---|
| ON (Current Selection) | -20mA to +20mA | Configures the channel for current input signals. |
| OFF (Voltage Selection) | -10VDC నుండి +10VDC | Configures the channel for voltagఇ ఇన్పుట్ సిగ్నల్స్. |
Ensure that the DIP switches are set correctly for each channel based on the type of analog sensor connected.

1. పవర్ అప్
After all wiring is complete and verified, restore power to the SLC 500 chassis. The "POWER" indicator on the 1746-NI4 module (Figure 1) should illuminate, indicating proper power supply.
2. సాఫ్ట్వేర్ కాన్ఫిగరేషన్
The 1746-NI4 module requires configuration within the SLC 500 programming software (e.g., RSLogix 500). This involves:
- Adding the 1746-NI4 module to the I/O configuration tree.
- Defining the input data file (e.g., I:x.0 for the module's input data).
- Scaling analog input values to engineering units within your PLC program.
- Setting up alarm limits or other process control logic based on the analog inputs.
3. Monitoring Analog Inputs
Once configured, the analog input values can be monitored through the PLC programming software. The "INPUT" indicator on the module (Figure 1) may provide status feedback depending on the module's operational state and input activity.
