ArmorBlock analog I/O modules are interface modules that convert analog signals to digital values for inputs and convert digital values to analog signals for outputs. Controllers can then use these signals for control purposes.

By using the producer/consumer network model, ArmorBlock analog I/O modules produce information when needed.

Some of the module features are as follows:

• multiple preset ranges of voltage or current inputs/outputs

• process alarms and limits

• overrange and underrange detection

• digital filter for 1732E-IF4M12R

For more information about module features, see Configurable Features for the

Analog Input and Output Modules on page 43.

The 1732E-IF4M12R module supports four input channels, while the 1732E-OF4M12R supports four output channels. Each of the four input/output channels can be configured as either current or voltage input/output, with current mode as default configuration.

Alarms/Limits

You can select from a series of operational ranges for each channel. The range designates the minimum and maximum signals that are detectable by the module.

Input/Output Ranges for 1732E-IF4M12R and 1732E-OF4M12R

Module Input/Output range

4…20 mA 0…10 V

-10…10 V 0…5 V

-5…5 V

To use an input or output as a current or voltage device, you must:

• wire the input/output connector for the correct input type (see page 10

)

• configure the input/output as current or voltage via RSLogix 5000 (see page 25

and page 35)

The modules are capable of generating the following alarms:

• process alarms (low, low-low, high, high-high) for 1732E-IF4M12R

• clamp/limits alarm for 1732E-OF4M12R

Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM005A-EN-E - July 2012 3

Chapter 1 Overview of the 1732E ArmorBlock Analog Input and Output Modules

Process Alarms

The following level alarms are available for the for 1732E-IF4M12R module:

• Low

• Low-Low

• High

• High-High

When the channel input goes below a low alarm or above a high alarm, a bit is set in the data table. All Alarm Status bits can be read individually or by reading the Channel Status Byte (see page 48

You can configure each channel alarm individually. See Alarm Configuration Tab

on page 26 to learn how to configure the alarms.

Clamping

Clamping limits the output from the analog module to remain within a range configured by the controller, even when the controller commands an output outside that range. This safety feature sets a high clamp and a low clamp.

Once clamps are determined for a module, any data received from the controller that exceeds those clamps sets an appropriate limit alarm and transitions the output to that limit but not beyond the requested value.

Clamping alarms can be disabled or latched on a per channel basis.

To learn how to set clamp limits, see Limits Configuration Tab

on page 36.

Overrange and Underrange Detection

This feature detects when the input module is operating beyond limits set by the input range. For example, if you are using the 1732E-IF4M12R module in the 0V…10V input range and the module voltage increases to 11V, the overrange detects this condition.

The table shows the input ranges of the input module and the lowest/highest signal available in each range before the module detects an underrange/overrange condition.

Lowest and Highest Signal for Overrange and Underrange Detection

Available Range Lowest Signal in Range Highest Signal in Range

Digital Filters

Chapter Summary

The 1732E-IF4M12R module also supports a digital filter to smooth input data noise transients on each input channel. This value specifies the time constant for a digital first order lowpass filter on the input. It is specified in units of milliseconds. A value of 0 disables the filter.

To learn more about digital filter, see page 44

This chapter shows you how to install and wire the 1732E ArmorBlock Dual Port 4-Point EtherNet/IP Analog Input and Output modules. The only tools you require are a flat or Phillips head screwdriver and drill. This chapter includes the following topics:

Topics Page

Install the Module 7 Set the Network Address 7 Mount the Module 9 Wire the Module 10

To install the module:

• Set the network address

• Mount the module

• Connect the I/O, Network, and Auxiliary cables to the module.

Set the Network Address

The I/O block ships with the rotary switches set to 999 and DHCP enabled. To change the network address, you can do one of the following:

• adjust the node address switches on the front of the module.

• use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, such as

Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP.

• retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.

The I/O block reads the switches first to determine if the switches are set to a valid number. To set the network address:

1. Remove power.

2. Remove the switch dust caps.

3. Rotate the three (3) switches on the front of the module using a small

Example shows network switches set at 163, which sets the module IP address to 192.168.1.163.

Note: You need to remove the protective switch dust caps before you can adjust the address settings.

5. Replace switch dust caps. Make sure not to over tighten.

6. Reapply power.

7. Record IP address on product label found on the side of enclosure.

Set Network Address

When the switches are set to a valid number, the I/O block’s IP address is

192.168.1.xxx, where xxx represents the number set on the switches. The I/O block’s subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and default gateway address is set to

192.168.1.1.

When the I/O block uses the network address set on the switches, the I/O block does not have a host name assigned to it or use any Domain Name Server.

If the switches are set to an invalid number (for example, 000 or a value greater than 254 excluding 888), the I/O block checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If DHCP is enabled, the I/O block asks for an address from a DHCP server. The DHCP server also assigns other Transport Control Protocol (TCP) parameters. (The modules are shipped with the network switches set to 999.)

If DHCP is not enabled, the I/O block uses the IP address (along with other TCP configurable parameters) stored in nonvolatile memory.

Network Address Switch value 001

The module IP address cannot be the same as the gateway address. If the address switches are set to 001, the module IP address becomes 192.168.1.1, which is the same as the default gateway address. In this case, the module gateway address will be set to 0.0.0.0.

Default Factory Configuration

The switch value 888 resets the module to default factory configuration on power up. The module will not operate properly when powered up with this setting. The switches must be set to a different (and valid) value and then power cycled after a reset.

Configure Your I/O Module

Overview of the Configuration Process through RSLogix 5000

You must configure your module upon installation. The module will not work until it has been configured with at least the default configuration.

RSLogix 5000 Configuration Software

You must use RSLogix 5000, version 20 or later, to configure your module. You have the option of accepting default configuration for your module or writing point-level configuration specific to your application.

Both options are explained in detail, including views of software screens, in this chapter.

When you use the RSLogix 5000 software to configure a module, you must perform the following steps:

1. Add the Local EtherNet/IP Bridge (1756-EN2T, 1756-EN2TR, or 1756-EN3TR) to your project’s I/O Configuration.

2. Add the 1732E-IF4M12R or 1732E-OF4M12R module as a child of the 1756-EN2T module.

Add a New Bridge and Module to Your RSLogix 5000 Project

3. Accept the default configuration or change it to specific configuration for the module.

4. Edit configuration for a module when changes are needed.

After you have started RSLogix 5000 software and created a controller, you must add a new bridge and a new module to your project. The bridge allows your module to communicate with the controller.

The wizard allows you to create a new module and write configuration. You can use default configuration or write specific configuration for your application.

Click Help on the configuration dialogs shown in this section if you need assistance in selecting and setting the parameters.

B. Click download.

IMPORTANT

Download the Program to Your Controller

After you write configuration for your module, the module does not use this configuration until you download it to the owner-controller. The download transfers the entire program to the controller, overwriting any existing program.

Download module configuration as shown below:

Depending on your application, a variety of RSLogix 5000 software screens may appear to choose a path to your ControlLogix controller and to verify the download. Navigate those screens as best fits your application.

This completes the download process.

Edit Your 1732E-IF4M12R Configuration

RSLogix 5000 programming software automatically creates module-defined data types and tags when a module is created. This section describes how to modify the default configuration for input modules.

Data types symbolically name module configuration, input and output data. Tags let you provide each a unique name, such as where the user-defined data type and slot reside on the controller. This information is used to communicate data between the controller and module.

After you have set configuration for a module, you can review and change your choices. You can change configuration data and download it to the controller while online. This is called dynamic reconfiguration.

Your freedom to change some configurable features, though, depends on whether the controller is in Remote Run Mode or Program Mode.

Although you can change configuration while online, you must go offline to add or delete modules from the project.

The editing process begins on the main page of RSLogix 5000 software.

module, as shown in the RSLogix 5000 I/O Configuration tree, to the physical module before I/O communication begins. You can use electronic keying to help prevent communication to a module that does not match the type and revision expected.

For each module in the I/O Configuration tree, the user-selected keying option determines if, and how, an electronic keying check is performed.

Typically, three keying options are available:

• Exact Match

• Compatible Module (default value)

• Disable Keying Exact Match is an electronic keying protection mode that requires the

physical module and the module configured in the software to match according to vendor, catalog number, major revision and minor revision.

Compatible Module indicates that the module determines whether to accept or reject communication. Compatible Keying is the default setting. It allows the physical module to accept the key of the module configured in the software, provided that the configured module is one the physical module is capable of emulating. The exact level of emulation required is product and revision specific.

Disable Keying indicates the keying attributes are not considered when attempting to communicate with a module. Other attributes, such as data size and format, are considered and must be acceptable before I/O communication is established. With Disabled Keying, I/O communication may occur with a module other than the type specified in the I/O configuration tree with unpredictable results. We generally do not recommend using Disabled Keying.

Calibration and Configuration options are not available for Listen Only option.

Input Only specifies an independent connection where a device receives inputs from the target device and sends configuration data to the target device. An Input Only connection does not send outputs; it only receives inputs. You can specify multiple Input Only connections to the target device from different originators.

Exclusive Owner specifies an independent connection where a single device controls the output states in the target device. If you have an existing Exclusive Owner connection to a target device, you cannot specify another Exclusive Owner or Redundant connection to that same target device.

Listen Only specifies a dependent connection where a device receives inputs from the target device, but does not send configuration data with the target device. A Listen Only connection only functions properly when another non-Listen Only connection exists to the same target device. A Listen Only connection does not send outputs; it only receives inputs. You can specify multiple Listen Only connections to the target device from different originators.

Connection Tab

RSLogix 5000 programming software automatically creates module-defined data types and tags when a module is created. This section describes how to modify the default configuration for input modules.

Your freedom to change some configurable features, though, depends on whether the controller is in Remote Run Mode or Program Mode.

Although you can change configuration while online, you must go offline to add or delete modules from the project.
