Connecting and Disconnecting the Field Wiring
WARNING: Before removing the analog module or the terminal block on the face of the module,
disconnect power to the PLC and all field devices. Failure to disconnect power can result in damage to
the PLC and/or field devices.
Wiring Guidelines
Your company may have guidelines for wiring and cable installation. If so, you should check
those before you begin the installation. Here are some general things to consider:
• Use the shortest wiring route whenever possible.
• Use shielded wiring and ground the shield at the transmitter source. Do not ground the shield at both
the module and the source.
• Do not run the signal wiring next to large motors, high current switches, or transformers. This may
cause noise problems.
• Route the wiring through an approved cable housing to minimize the risk of accidental damage.
Check local and national codes to choose the correct method for your application.
The F0–08ADH–1 does not supply power to field devices. You will need to power transmitters
separately from the PLC.
To remove the terminal block, disconnect power to the PLC and the field devices. Pull the
terminal block firmly until the connector separates from the module.
You can remove the analog module from the PLC by folding out the retaining tabs at the top
and bottom of the module. As the retaining tabs pivot upward and outward, the module’s
connector is lifted out of the PLC socket. Once the connector is free, you can lift the module
out of its slot.

Note 1: A Littelfuse Series 217, 0.032A fast-acting fuse

Note 2: Do not connect both ends of shield.
Current Loop Transmitter Impedance
Manufacturers of transmitters and transducers specify a wide variety of power sources for their
products. Follow the manufacturer’s recommendations.
In some cases, manufacturers specify a minimum loop or load resistance that must be used
with the transmitter. The F0-08ADH-1 provides 100 ohm resistance for each channel. If your
transmitter requires a load resistance below 100 ohms, you do not have to make any changes.
However, if your transmitter requires a load resistance higher than 100 ohms, you need to add
a resistor in series with the module.
Consider the following example for a transmitter being operated from a 30VDC supply with a
recommended load resistance of 750 ohms. Since the module has a 100 ohm resistor, you need
to add an additional resistor.
R = Tr–Mr R = Resistor to add
R = 750–100 Tr = Transmitter requirement
R M 650 Mr = Module resistance (internal 100 ohms)

Channel Scanning Sequence
The DL05 and DL06 will read all eight channels of input data during each scan. Each CPU
supports special V-memory locations that are used to manage the data transfer. This is discussed
in more detail beginning in the section on “Special V-memory Locations”.

Analog Module Updates
Even though the channel updates to the CPUs are synchronous with the CPU scan, the module
asynchronously monitors the analog transmitter signals and converts each signal into a 16-bit
binary representation. This enables the module to continuously provide accurate measurements
without slowing down the discrete control logic in the RLL program.
The module takes approximately 10.2 milliseconds to sense 95% of the change in the analog
signal per channel. It takes approximately 81.6 ms to sample all channels.
NOTE: If you are comparing other manufacturers’ update times (step responses) with ours, please be aware
that some manufacturers refer to the time it takes to convert the analog signal to a digital value. Our analog
to digital conversion takes only a few microseconds. It is the settling time of the filter that is critical in
determining the full update time. Our update time specification includes the filter settling time.

Special V-memory Locations
Formatting the Analog Module Data
The DL05 and DL06 PLCs have special V-memory locations assigned to their respective
option slots. These V-memory locations allow you to:
• Specify the data format (binary or BCD)
• Specify the number of channels to scan (up to 8 channels for the F0–08ADH–1)
• Specify the V-memory locations to store the input data
DL05 Data Formatting
The table below shows the special V-memory locations used by the DL05 PLC for the
F0–08ADH–1.

Data Type and Number of Channels V7700
Storage Pointer V7701
Setup Data Type and Number of Active Channels
Special V-memory location 7700 is used to set the data
format to either BCD or binary and to set the number of
channels that will be active.
For example, assume the F0–08ADH–1 is installed in the
option slot. Loading a constant of 800 into V7700 sets
8 channels active and causes the input data value to be read
as a BCD number.
With the F0–08ADH–1 in the option slot, loading a constant
of 8800 into V7700 sets 8 channels active, and the input data
value is read as a binary number.

Storage Pointer Setup
V7701 is a system V-memory location used as a pointer to a user V-memory location where
the analog input data is stored. The V-memory location loaded into V7701 is an octal
number identifying the first user V-memory location for reading the analog input data. This
V-memory location is user selectable. For example, loading O2000 causes the pointer to write
Ch 1’s data value to V2000 – 2001, Ch 2’s data value to V2002 – 2003, Ch 3’s data value to
V2004 – 2005, Ch 4’s data value to V2006 – 2007, Ch 5’s data value to V2010 – 2011, Ch
6’s data value to V2012 – 2013, Ch 7’s data value to V2014 – 2015, and Ch 8’s data value to
V2016 – 2017.
You will find an example program that loads appropriate values to V7700 and V7701 on
page 4–9.

Setup Data Type and Number of Active Channels
V-memory locations 700, 710, 720, and 730 are used to
set the data format to either BCD or binary and to set the
number of channels that will be active.
For example, assume the F0–08ADH–1 is installed in slot
1. Loading a constant of 800 into V700 sets 8 channels
active and causes the input data value to be read as a BCD
number.
With the F0–08ADH–1 in slot 1, loading a constant of
8800 into V700 sets 8 channels active, and the input data
value is read as a binary number.
Storage Pointer Setup
V-memory locations 701, 711, 721 and 731 are special locations used as storage pointers. A
V-memory address is loaded into this location as an octal number identifying the first user
V-memory location for the analog input data. This V-memory location is user selectable. For
example, loading O2000 causes the pointer to write Ch 1’s data value to V2000 – 2001, Ch 2’s
data value to V2002 – 2003, Ch 3’s data value to V2004 – 2005, Ch 4’s data value to V2006
– 2007, Ch 5’s data value to V2010 – 2011, Ch 6’s data value to V2012 – 2013, Ch 7’s data
value to V2014 – 2015, and Ch 8’s data value to V2016 – 2017.

Using the Pointer in Your Control Program
DL05 Pointer Method Using Conventional Ladder Logic
NOTE: The proper use of the DL05 pointer requires that the V-memory address be written to the special
memory location on the first scan only. Use the SP0 bit as a permissive contact when using the code shown
below.
The example program below shows how to setup the special V-memory locations. This rung
can be placed anywhere in the ladder program or in the initial stage if you are using stage
programming instructions.
This is all that is required to read the analog input data into V-memory locations. Once the
data is in V-memory you can perform math on the data, compare the data against preset values,
and so forth. V2000 is used in the example but you can use any user V-memory location.

Special V-memory location assigned to the option slot contains the
data format and the number of channels to scan.
This loads an octal value for the first V-memory location that will be used
to store the incoming data. For example, the O2000 entered here would
designate the following addresses:
Ch1 – V2000-2001, Ch2 – V2002-V2003, Ch3 – V2004-V2005, Ch 4 – V2006-2007
Ch 5 – V2010-2011, Ch 6 – V2012-V2013, Ch 7 – V2014-V2015, Ch 8 – V2016-V2017.
The octal address (O2000) is stored here. V7701 is assigned to the option slot
and acts as a pointer, which means the CPU will use the octal value in this location
to determine exaclty where to store the incoming data.

Scale
No permissive contact or input logic

Conversions
Scaling the Input Data
Many applications call for measurements in engineering units, which can be more meaningful
than raw data. Convert to engineering units using the
formula shown to the right.
You may have to make adjustments to the formula
depending on the scale you choose for the engineering
units.
For example, if you wanted to measure pressure (PSI)
from 0.0 to 99.9 then you would have to multiply the
analog value by 10 in order to imply a decimal place
when you view the value with the programming software or a handheld programmer. Notice
how the calculations differ when you use the multiplier.
Analog Value of 32375, slightly less than half scale, should yield 49.4 PSI.

Resolution Details
Since the module has 16-bit resolution, the analog signal is converted into 65,536 counts
ranging from 0 - 65,535 (216). A 0mA signal would be 0 and a 20mA signal would be 65535.
This is equivalent to a binary value of 0000 0000 0000 0000 to 1111 1111 1111 1111, or 000
to FFFF hexadecimal.
Each count can also be expressed in terms of the signal level by using the following equation:

Analog Input Ladder Logic Filter
PID Loops / Filtering
Please refer to the “PID Loop Operation” chapter in the DL06 or DL05 User Manual for
information on the built-in PV filter (DL05/06) and the ladder logic filter (DL06 only) shown
below. A filter must be used to smooth the analog input value when auto tuning PID loops to
prevent giving a false indication of loop characteristics.
Smoothing the Input Signal (DL06 only)
The filter logic can also be used in the same way to smooth the analog input signal to help
stabilize PID loop operation or to stabilize the analog input signal value for use with an operator
interface display, etc.
WARNING: The built-in and logic filters are not intended to smooth or filter noise generated by improper
field device wiring or grounding. Small amounts of electrical noise can cause the input signal to bounce
considerably. Proper field device wiring and grounding must be done before attempting to use the filters
to smooth the analog input signal.

NOTE: Be careful not to do a multiple number conversion on a value. For example, if you are using the pointer
method in BCD format to get the analog value, it must be converted to binary (BIN) as shown below. If you
are using the pointer method in Binary format, the conversion to binary (BIN) instruction is not needed.

Example Code to Scale a 4–20 mA Signal to 0–1000 BCD
(For applications where the field transmitter sends a 4–20 mA signal to the analog input card.)
This example will scale the first input, a double word BCD value located at V2000 and
V2001, as a 4–20 mA input signal from 0–1000. Because the input card ranges from
0–20 mA instead of 4–20 mA, an offset value must be used to deal with the 0–4 mA values.
Any value below a 4mA (13107) value is forced to a 4mA (13107) value.

This example will scale the first input, a binary/decimal value located at V2000 (the CPU
reserves two words for each channel so V2000 and V2001 are reserved), as a 4–20 mA input
