Removal and Insertion Under Power
These modules are designed so you can remove and insert them under
power. However, take special care when removing or inserting modules in an
active process. I/O attached to any module being removed or inserted can
change states due to its input/output signal changing conditions.

1797-IE8 and 1797-IE8NF Field Transmitter Supply Characteristic
The field transmitter supply can be modeled as a 21.5V source with a 273 Ω
series resistance. (See the following graph.) This provides a simple and useful
mechanism to determine transmitter and loop compatibility.
The actual transmitter supply contains three ranges of impedance with the
following characteristics:
• The output voltage is ≈ 21.5V for load currents of 0 mA.
• If the load is more than ≈ 680 Ω but less than ∞Ω, the transmitter supply is in a constant resistance region (≈ 273 Ω).
• For load impedance between 0 and ≈ 680 Ω, the transmitter supply
current is in constant current mode (≈ 22 mA).
If an intrinsic safety fault occurs in the field transmitter supply of any channel,
every channel’s field transmitter power is shutdown.
The following graph depicts the typical transmitter load characteristic.
The normal module field side power consumption is 7.5 W when all channel
21.5V sources (+) are loaded. If field devices are used that are powered
separately, the module field-side power consumption can be determined by
Field_Side_Power = 9.5V x (300 mA + n x 55 mA). Where n is the number of
field devices that are supplied by the 1797-IE8 or 1797-IE8NF.

Analog Input Data Specifies the value of the analog input data from the module. Specific
format is controlled by Module Data Format Control parameter. This
data is used when the channel is in analog input mode.
Overrange AlarmAlarm signal for input overrange. This signal is always active.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = input overrange
Underrange Alarm Alarm signal for input underrange. This signal is always active.

the loop is open or shorted. When active, this alarm triggers at 2 mA
and 22 mA for open and short respectively. Depending on Data Format,
these current values may be indicated by percent, mA, or integer
values.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = fault detected
The HART Rebuild bit will trigger a HART Rebuild on a transition from 0
to 1. The HART Rebuild bit must remain 1 for HART communications to
function after the rebuild completes. If the HART Rebuild bit is set to 0,
HART communications are disabled.
During the time the system is rebuilding the HART table, the HART
rebuild flag is set.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = HART rebuilding
A 1 indicates that HART communications are failing on the associated
channel.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = HART communication failure
When this bit is set (1), it indicates that HART communications are
failing on the associated channel.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = HART communication fault

(1797-IE8H)
The HART Read Back bits show deviations between the analog
measured current value on a loop (by the 1797-IE8H) and the digital real
current (sensed by the HART device on its own) received by the
1797-IE8H during HART communication in the background. This
functionality can be turned on by defining a HART Readback Threshold
greater than 0. See 1797-IE8H CE, CENELEC I/O Entity Parameters
page 42. This functionality is used to recognize loop errors whereby a
parasitic current is bypassing the 1797-IE8H.
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = HART Readback threshold is exceeded.
Delivers the percentage value (in steps of 1%) of the threshold for
forcing the HART read back indication (input signal deviation
HART/Analog) with a 31% maximum deviation.
If there is no HART transmitter on the loop or the loop is not in the
transmitter list, the function is switched off internally in the I/O module.
Range: 0 = disabled, 1…4 = not supported from I/O module (set to 5
internally), 5…31 = percentage threshold data (5…31%).
Range: 0 = normal, 1 = HART communication is currently occurring.
When this bit is set (1), it indicates that a HART field device was found
during the rebuild sequence on the associated channel.
Range: 0 = transmitter was not found, 1 = HART transmitter was found.
This setting affects all channels using Data Format 2 or 6. It sets low,
end-of-scale percent value at which square roots start being reported.
Below this level 0% is reported. This compensates for asymptotic
values of the square-root function as the input approaches 0.
Range: 0 = disabled, 1 = 2%, 2 = 5%, 3 = 10%
Configuration additions are needed for HART communications in Series
A mode. An extended configuration area is provided. This Extended
Configuration table is configured by writing a CIO or MSG instruction
with the following:
Class = 0x7D
Instance = Product location on flexbus (Use 1 for the module
located next to the adapter.)
Attribute = 0x65
Service = Set Attribute Single (0x10)

Cyclic HART Input Data
The HART input data holds the primary variables for the "live" HART
device, and other information gathered during the normal HART scan.
Additional "documentary" data is available through the pass through message
interface in the device information tables. Pass through messages are defined
in detail in the User Manual.
The HART Input Data for a channel may be zeroes if HART communications is
disabled for that channel. For more information on disabling HART
communications, refer to the Disable HART communications and HART
Disable functions in the Configuration Map table.
