What FLEX I/O Analog

The FLEX I/O HART input and output modules must be used in a ControlNet or EtherNet/IP network.

Modules Do

The 1794-IF8IH module accepts up to eight analog inputs. The inputs are isolated and will accept current in either of the following two ranges: 4…20 mA or 0…20 mA. The default input range is 0…20 mA. The inputs have both fixed hardware filters and selectable firmware digital filters.

13 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

The 1794-IF8IHNFXT module supports 0…20 mA and 4…20 mA ranges, with a default input range of 0…20 mA. It has seven selectable input filters and seven input data formats. It provides support for loop alarm, which detects gross signal errors such as open and short circuit. It has programmable user alarms (high, low, remote high high, and remote low low). The module has a HART modem per channel. It is compliant with HART versions 5, 6, and 7, except for multi-drop support.

The 1794-OF8IH module provides as many as eight (8) analog outputs. The outputs are isolated and will provide current in either of the following two ranges: 4…20 mA or 0…20 mA. The default output range is 0…20 mA.

Each module offers:

• full functionality without switches or jumpers.

• multiple data ranges that can be independently programmed for each

• lead breakage detection.

• overrange/underrange alarms.

• remote transmitter alarm.

channel.

Communicate with Programmable Controllers

Data connections are established between the FLEX I/O module and an Allen-Bradley® programmable controller (PLC) to transfer information between the two at a scheduled rate.

Input module information is then automatically made available in the PLC data table through the data connection. Reciprocally, output data information determined by the PLC program is also automatically transferred from the PLC data table to the output module through the data connection.

In addition, when the data connection is originally established, configuration information for the module is automatically transferred to it via the network.

Events Following Powerup

You must apply +24V DC power to your FLEX I/O analog I/O modules. The following sequence of events occurs after power has initially been applied to your module:

1. The module status indicator will blink red until a connection is established and a valid configuration is passed to the module.

Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020 15

The 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT FLEX I/O modules are capable of generating four alarms:

• Low Alarm

• High Alarm

•Remote Fault

•Local Fault

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

IMPORTANT

These alarm conditions are described in general terms and as they relate to bits on the FLEX I/O module on the following pages.

Low Alarm

The low alarm notifies you when module input signal moves below the configured low alarm trigger point. If the input signal falls below 0% (4 mA), a Low Alarm is generated.

High Alarm

The high alarm works converse to the low alarm. This feature notifies you when the input signal falls above the configured high alarm trigger point. If the input signal falls above 0% (4 mA), an Underrange Alarm is generated.

Remote Fault Alarm

The remote fault alarm is intended for use with remote transmitter loops.

For example, the remote transmitter may be measuring temperature and converting it to a standard mA signal. In such a loop, though, the input module cannot determine the state of the loop on the far side of the transmitter. However, the remote transmitter may be capable of diagnosing a problem in the remote loop and signal the input module local loop with a preprogrammed out-of-range (high or low) value.

The Fault Enable bit allows the 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT modules to work with transmitters like the one described.

Once the alarm is issued, it remains active as long as the input signal value remains above or below the programmed value.

Use Remote Fault Alarm to Determine High-High or Low-Low Alarm Levels

If you do not have a remote transmitter in your loop, this alarm can also be used to program a high-high or low-low alarm level between the levels, which actuate the overrange or underrange alarms and the high or low local fault alarms.

16 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

IMPORTANT

Programming the Remote Fault Alarm

For the remote fault alarm, you must program the threshold in 0.1 mA steps at any level on the high or low end of input signal range. The remote fault alarm activates if your I/O module receives input signal values of:

• 100.63…111.88% (20.1…21.9 mA) on the high end of input signal range

• -0.63…-11.88% (3.9…2.1 mA) on the low end of input signal range.

Local Fault Alarm

The local fault alarm notifies you when the loop to the transmitter or field device (if no transmitter is used) is open or shorted.

Use the HART Capabilities

Once the alarm is issued, it remains active as long as the input signal value remains in the programmed range.

• 112.50% (22 mA) or higher on the high end of input signal range. This value indicates a short in the loop.

• -12.50% (2 mA) or lower on the low end of input signal range. This value indicates an open wire condition in the loop.

The remote fault and local fault alarms are issued with the same bit whether the cause is an under or overrange. Monitor the overrange and underrange bits in your programming software to determine if the problem is a high current or low current.

Before using the HART capabilities, be sure that:

• the I/O module and the associated field device are working properly in the analog 4…20 mA mode.

• the I/O module is configured for 4…20 mA range.

• the field device is HART capable.

• no multiple HART field device is connected to each channel.

• input filtering is set to a valid (defined) value.

HART Implementation Overview

The FLEX I/O HART modules act as intelligent HART multiplexers. Basically, the module learns which HART devices are attached to its channels and then routes HART messages, as appropriate, between the HART field devices and the Flexbus. Since the HART modules act as intelligent HART multiplexers, HART commands can be issued to the HART modules themselves.

Communication on the Flexbus occurs between the adapter and the HART module. The adapter converts these messages to the appropriate network format for communication with the controlling processor. The controlling processor gets its command from the user program, storing the responses in its memory.

Sample Filter Frequency Rates

Six available input filter settings for the 1794-IF8IH module and seven input filter settings for the 1794-IF8IHNFXT module allow you to choose the best rolloff frequency for input channels on your I/O module. When choosing a filter, remember that time filter selection affects your input signal’s accuracy.

For example, if you choose the highest frequency of 470 Hz (filter 0) for the 1794-IF8IH module, signal noise is more likely to affect the reading, but the slowest frequency of 4.17 Hz (filter 5) provides the most accurate signal due to

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

Local Fault Mode

The Local Fault Mode can be programmed to determine how the module responds to communications faults and internal module faults.

When setting the Local Fault Mode feature in your programming software, set this feature’s bit to 0 to use the analog fault state or digital fault state only if a communications fault occurs. Set the bit to 1 to use the Analog Fault state or Digital Fault state if any fault occurs.

Analog fault state and digital fault state determine how the module reacts to faults when a channel is used in analog mode or digital mode, respectively.

Latch Mode

Latch Mode determines channel operation under wire-off or lead-break fault conditions. This feature is available for each channel. Channel detection occurs on a continuous basis. If a fault is detected, the channel fault alarm is set.

If Latch mode is enabled when a fault occurs, the fault will remain latched in its fault state until a Global Reset is issued. If Latch mode is disabled when a fault occurs, the channel reports a fault until the fault is corrected. Global Reset is not necessary if Latch mode is disabled.

When using your programming software, set the Latch mode bit to 0 to disable the feature. Set the bit to 1 to enable it.

Global Reset

Global Reset works in conjunction with Latch mode during fault conditions. If Latch mode is enabled and a fault condition occurs, the channel operating with a fault remains in this condition (with analog or digital fault state implied) until a Global Reset is issued. The Global Reset feature resets all outputs of a particular channel group to accept normal system output data.

The Global Reset feature is an edge triggered signal. Use your programming software to set the Global Reset bit to 1 for normal operation. Resetting of outputs occurs during the 1...0 transition.

When choosing a data format, remember the following:

• If an unassigned Analog Data Format is selected, the module sets Diagnostic Data to 2 for configuration failure and puts affected channels in the corresponding fault state.

• An unconfigured module channel can be assumed to have the default configuration Analog Data Format 0, 0...20 mA and Analog Mode Fault State minimum range. If a non-assigned format is selected, then the diagnostic 2 for configuration failure is set and the module channel goes to the default fault state minimum range.

• If on the other hand, the configuration had been changed, from the default, and then it was changed again to a non-assigned format, then the diagnostic bit 2 for configuration failure is set and the module goes to the fault state for the last valid configuration.

• Formats 13 and 14 are 2’s complement data formats, and require data to the module in that form.

• Range: 0…15

•Default: 0

• Data Table Reference: data format, word 12 and 13, bits 0…3, bits 4…7

If the data is sent to the module, which is out of range, the value will be clipped and Diagnostic Data will be set to 11 data out of range.

Position the keyswitch on the terminal base Install the Module on page 28

Removal and Insertion Under Power page 27

ATTENTION: These modules do not receive primary operational power from the backplane. +V and -V DC power must be applied to your module before installation. If power is not applied, the module position will appear to the adapter as an empty slot in your chassis.

Removal and Insertion Under Power

27 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

WARNING: These modules are designed so you can remove and insert them under power. However, take special care when removing or inserting these 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. If you insert or remove the terminal base while backplane power is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.

Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

WARNING: When used in a class I, division 2, hazardous location, this equipment must be mounted in a suitable enclosure with proper wiring method that complies with the governing electrical codes.

Install the Module

Installation of the module consists of the following:

•Mounting the terminal base unit.

• Installing the analog I/O module into the terminal base unit.

• Installing the connecting wiring to the terminal base unit.

If you are installing your module into a terminal base unit that is already installed, proceed to page 32.

ATTENTION: Do not use the unused terminals on the terminal base unit. Using the terminals as supporting terminals can result in damage to modules and/or unintended operation of your system.

Mount on a DIN Rail

ATTENTION: Do not remove or replace a terminal base unit when

power is applied. Interruption of the Flexbus can result in unintended operation or machine motion.

Install the Terminal Base Unit

1. Remove the cover plug in the male connector of the unit to which you are connecting this terminal base unit.

2. Check to make sure that the 16 pins in the male connector on the adjacent device are straight and in line so that the mating female connector on this terminal base unit will mate correctly.

3. Verify that the female Flexbus connector is fully retracted into the base unit.

9. Repeat the above steps to install the next terminal base unit. Be sure the Flexbus connector cover on the last terminal base unit is in place.

Mount on a Panel or Wall

Installation of a FLEX I/O system on a wall or panel consists of:

• laying out the drilling points on the wall or panel.

• drilling the pilot holes for the mounting screws.

• mounting the adapter mounting plate.

• installing the terminal base units and securing them to the wall or panel.

If you are installing your module into a terminal base unit that is already installed, proceed to Mount the Analog Modules on the Terminal Base Unit on page 32.

Units

Connect Wiring to the FLEX I/O HART Analog Modules

Each 1794-IF8IH and IF8IHNFXT input can be operated from an analog field device signal, and each 1794-OF8IH output channel can operate an analog field device.

ATTENTION: The FLEX I/O analog modules do not receive primary operational power from the backplane. +24V DC power must be applied to your module before operation. If power is not applied, the module position will appear to the adapter as an empty slot in your chassis. If the adapter does not recognize your module after installation is completed, cycle power to the adapter.

When interconnecting several lines, you must consider the total accumulated power.

Data Transfer Types

39 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

The modules make use of three data transfer modes that will be supported by the FLEX I/O Adapter.

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

The first mode is traditional real-time data transfer called Cyclic Data Transfer (CDT). This class 1 connection continuously transfers 16 words maximum, composed of Input, Output, and Configuration registers. CDT will be used for standard Analog data transfers.

The second mode of data transfer uses the Cyclic EDT mode. Cyclic EDT will be used for continuous Class 1 transfer of HART data. This includes the first four dynamic HART Data variables, along with standard HART status information.

The third mode of data transfer uses EDT for HART pass-through Class 3 Messages. HART pass-through messages can be initiated from a number of sources, and are non-periodic. This allows the HART pass-through messages from the HART Foundation Server, and other third-party sources.

1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT I/O Profiles

All Allen-Bradley FLEX I/O modules have a 16 word table of Real Time Data (RTD) to be transferred between the controller and the I/O module. Not all 16 words need be allocated. The 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT modules have the following RTD IO Profile:

RTD 1 EDT Read Word EDT Read Word

RTD 2…9 I:0…I:7 RTD Input Data

RTD 10…14 S:0…14 RTD Status Data

RTD 15 EDT Write Word EDT Write Word

In addition to the RTD, the module uses EDT for Configuration and HART data. The 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT modules have the following EDT IO Profiles:

These parameter descriptions apply to both 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT modules, unless otherwise specified.

Byte Order (Configuration Word 0 – bits 0…1, 8…9)

This setting selects the byte order of module data. Note: The MSW and EDT words (Words 0, 1 and 15) of the Primary Input Data Table are not swapped. All other Primary Input Data and Configuration Data are adjusted according to the following chart.

Byte Order

Byte Order Group B

Bit 9 Bit 8 Bit 1 Bit 0 Description

0 0 0 0 Little Endian Format (default) — all data entries in true

1 0 1 0 Word Swap — word swap only values requiring more

than one word, for example, 32-bit float values.

0 1 0 1 Byte Swap — byte swap all words in data table.

1 1 1 1 Big Endian Format — all data entries in true Big Endian

format.

Byte Order cannot be changed using RSLogix 5000 software. RSLogix 5000 uses the default Byte Swap setting.

The purpose of this parameter is to allow this module to operate properly within data networks or systems utilizing various byte orders, across all data types (for example, Boolean data to 32-bit float data). Upon receiving the configuration

44 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

IMPORTANT

assembly the module must inspect BYTE ORDER to determine how to interpret the configuration assembly.

RSLogix 5000 users will never need to configure the Byte Order bits. For non RSLogix 5000 users, see the 1794-IF8IH Configuration Data Table

page 41 and 1794-IF8IHNFXT Configuration Data Table on page 43 on

how to map the Byte Order bits.

Two sets of Byte Order bits are provided since the module will not know at powerup and configuration reception what Endian format the configuration data being received is in. No matter what the format, 2-bit sets will always convey correct information to the module. Both sets must match each other for the module to accept the configuration and begin processing it for operation. If the two sets do not match, the module will revert to the last valid configuration (in case of original startup this would be default configuration) and set module Diagnostic Status to 2, configuration failure.

Reasoning for this configuration parameter: Within the CIP™ based Rockwell Automation control system all data is transported and utilized in Little Endian format. As such the default mode of operation for these modules will be Little Endian.

Since these modules are HART modules, and HART data is normally provided in Big Endian format, the module will be responsible for converting any HART in Big Endian format into Little Endian format.

Examples

In each of the following examples, the module operates internally with little Endian byte order.

HART Data Publishing Disable

This bit parameter exists on both 1794-IF8IH and 1794-IF8IHNFXT configurations but have different word number assignations in the Configuration Data Table. See Data Table Reference below.

This bit disables the I/O channel from forwarding the associated HART Command 3 information from the HART Field device through Cyclic EDT to the adapter.

This does not disable the module from gathering HART Command 3 information from the HART Field device. As such, HART Command 3 information from the HART Field device is still available via an unconnected message to the module.

Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020 55

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

When the adapter powers up, it reads each module to determine which modules are present in the Flexbus. For EDT modules, it reads Assembly 125 to gain knowledge of all assemblies the module has, whether they are EDT/CEDT and whether they are GET/SET. If an assembly is a CEDT assembly, the adapter automatically creates a CEDT entry and drops it into the EDT machine to gather/send this assembly and store the assembly locally in the adapter.

Sometime later, a ForwardOpen configuration arrives by the network for the module. The adapter proxy strips off a portion (Configuration Part 1) and sends the rest (Configuration Part 2) on through EDT to the module. Within this module configuration part are the CMD3 Disable Chx bits. These bits instruct the module to include or not include CMD3 scanning in the work for the channel. Users may not have HART devices on every channel so some channels may want CMD3 disabled. If scanning is disabled, the module also disables the adapter from including that particular associated assembly in the CEDT scanning routine by the method described below.

The module uses the CMD3 Disable Chx bits to adjust the CEDT entries in Assembly 125. Initially, the Assembly 125 CEDT assemblies (46...53) are identified as CEDT (0xC0 Cyclic EDT Get or 0x40 Cyclic EDT Set). This causes the adapter to add them to the CEDT scan. If the module receives a configuration with CMD3 Disable CHx bits set to “1” (disable), the module changes the appropriate channel Assembly 125 entry from 0xC0 Cyclic EDT Get to 0x80 EDT Get or 0x40 Cyclic EDT Set to 0x00 EDT Set.

Whenever the adapter receives a ForwardOpen to an EDT module, the adapter automatically rereads the module’s Assembly 125 to gain a new view of the assemblies. This reread is to check for any changes of CEDT Assembly status to EDT status. If a CMD3 Disable Chx was received on any particular channel, now the previous CEDT assembly is marked as an EDT assembly and the adapter will not add that assembly to its CEDT scan. This ForwardOpen reread will happen any time that a module receives a ForwardOpen, including a Null-ForwardOpen received during system runtime.

HART Failure (Input Word 11 – bits 0…7)

This bit indicates each time a HART communication failure is detected between the module and the HART field device (HART FD) on the channel. This failure could be due to some of the following reasons: time out, response checksum, parity, framing, HART FD missing, HART FD mismatch from device detected at last rebuild. If there is a failure, the appropriate channel’s bit is set. The bit is not latched.

The I/O module performs automatic retries and therefore a user should rarely recognize communication problems at the protocol layer. Therefore, this flag can be used to qualify the communication quality.

Range: 0 = No HART failures are detected, 1 = HART failure is detected

HART Current Ratio (Input Word 11 – bits 8…15)

Alarm signal for HART Current Fault, indicating that the HART data value is outside the HART Current Fault limit percentage. Active when limit is exceeded.

62 Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020

more than one word, for example, 32-bit float values.

Endian format.

Byte Order cannot be changed using RSLogix 5000 software. RSLogix 5000 uses the default Byte Swap setting.

Upon receiving the configuration assembly the module must inspect Byte Order to determine how to interpret the configuration assembly.

Two sets of Byte Order bits are provided since the module will not know at powerup and configuration reception what Endian format the configuration data it is receiving in. No matter what the format though, these two 2-bit sets always convey correct information to the module. Both sets must match each other for the module to accept the configuration and begin processing it for operation. If the two sets do not match the module reverts to the last valid configuration (in case of original start-up this is the default configuration), set module Diagnostic Status to "2" configuration failure, set outputs to fault states and do not start operation.

Within the CIP-based Rockwell Automation (RA) control system all data is transported and utilized in Little Endian format. As such the default mode of operation for these modules is Little Endian.

Since these modules are HART modules, and HART data is normally provided in Big Endian format, the module is responsible for converting any HART in Big Endian format into Little Endian format.

Examples

In each of the following examples, the module operates internally with little Endian byte order.

Data Format (Configuration Words 2, 3 – bits 0…3, 4…7, 8…10, 12…15)

Specifies the module data format for a channel.

If a module channel has never been configured, then it can be assumed to have the default configuration Analog Data Format "0", 0…20mA and Analog Mode Fault State minimum range. If a non-assigned format is selected, then the diagnostic "2" for configuration failure is set and the module channel goes to the default fault state minimum range.

If the configuration is changed from the default, and then changed again to a non-assigned format, then the diagnostic bit "2" for configuration failure is set and the module goes to the fault state for the last valid configuration.

Formats 13 and 14 are 2's complement data formats, and require data to the module in that form.

If latch is ON the fault is latched until a Global Reset is issued at which time the fault is reset.

If latch is OFF the channel reports the fault until the fault is corrected. Upon correction the fault is reset.

This data is used when the channel is in analog output mode.

Examples

If you choose format 2 and set the fault state value to 11000 (accordingly

110.00%), the I/O module provides 22 mA in case of fault state.

If you choose format 7 and set the fault state value to 32000, the I/O module provides 11.813 mA in case of fault state.

The fault state value is treated in the same way as the normal output value is treated. So you do not need to recalculate the current when you are used to work in a special format.

HART CMD 3 Disable (Configuration Word 7 – bits 0…7)

This bit disables the I/O channel from forwarding the associated HART Command 3 information from the HART Field device through Cyclic EDT to the adapter.

This feature should be exercised by using a Null ForwardOpen method in the Logix system. That is, the connection to the module and original configuration has already been accomplished. If utilized, Command 3 Disable should be utilized under program control (change bit in module configuration tag then issue reconfiguration message to module) or, more unusually, a manual operation by an operator (open module profile, change parameter then apply).

When the adapter powers up, it reads each module to determine who is out there. For EDT modules, it reads Assembly 125 to gain knowledge of all the assemblies the module has, whether they are EDT/CEDT and whether they are GET/SET. If an assembly is a CEDT assembly, the adapter automatically creates a CEDT entry and drops it into its EDT machine to gather/send this assembly and store the assembly locally in the adapter.

After this powerup process, a ForwardOpen configuration arrives by the network for the module. The adapter proxy strips off a portion (Configuration Part 1) and sends the rest (Configuration Part 2) on through EDT to the module. Within this module configuration part are the CMD3 Disable Chx bits. These bits instruct the module to include or not include CMD3 scanning in its work for the channel. Users may not have HART devices on every channel so some channels may want CMD3 disabled.

If users do disable scanning, the module also disables the adapter from including that particular associated assembly in the CEDT scanning routine by the following method:

The module uses the CMD3 Disable Chx bits to adjust the CEDT entries in Assembly 125. Initially the Assembly 125 CEDT assemblies (46…53) are identified as CEDT (0xC0 Cyclic EDT Get or 0x40 Cyclic EDT Set) this causes the adapter to add them to the CEDT scan. If the module receives a configuration with CMD3 Disable CHx bits set to "1" (disable), the module changes the appropriate channel Assembly 125 entry from 0xC0 Cyclic EDT Get to 0x80 EDT Get or 0x40 Cyclic EDT Set to 0x00 EDT Set.

Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020 81

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

Whenever the adapter receives a ForwardOpen to an EDT module, the adapter automatically rereads the module Assembly 125 to gain a new view of the assemblies. This reread is to check for any changes of CEDT Assembly status to EDT status. If a CMD3 Disable Chx is received on any particular channel, now the previous CEDT assembly is marked as an EDT assembly and the adapter does not add that assembly to the CEDT scan. This ForwardOpen reread happens any time that a module receives a ForwardOpen, including a Null-ForwardOpen received during system runtime.

HART Status Fields

The 1794-OF8IH module supports two connections for pass-through messages. Pass-through messages provide the ability to send HART messages to the HART device by passing through the I/O Module. In addition, HART device information that is automatically gathered by the I/O module may be accessed through this interface.

The 1794-OF8IH module provides eight queues for each of the two connections. This allows each connection to have up to eight messages pending at any given time, one for each channel. HART pass-through message implements a timeout, which is fixed at 20 seconds.

The first connection is provided for a ladder logic user. The following status bits are provided to simplify ladder logic. The second connection does not have status bits provided in the RTD. It can obtain this status by implementing polling messages using the pass-through message interface.

Global Reset (O0 Read Word – bit 14)

This bit resets all latched fault alarms. It acts in conjunction with the Latch Retry parameter. If any channel faults occur, the Latch Retry parameter can be set to cause the fault to be latched and the output to go to its fault state value if the Local Fault mode bit is set.

This is an edge triggered signal. It must first be set to the “1” state, reset will then occur on the “1” to “0” transition.

Range: 0=Normal, 1=Reset.

Fault (EDT Write Word – bit 14) and Run/Prog (EDT Write Word – bit 13)

Fault bit = signal from the adapter to the module that communication has been interrupted with the network. Prog/Run bit = signal from the adapter to the module of the processor mode. These 2 bits are used together.

When the adapter and I/O are first powered-up, the Fault bit is set to ‘0’, by the adapter. On powerup, any module outputs remain OFF (0 mA out) or reset.

When the Fault bit is a ‘1’, the outputs follow the data specified in output data words if the Prog/Run bit indicates that the processor is in the Run mode ‘1’. When the Fault bit is a ‘0’ or Prog/Run bit indicates that the processor is in the Program mode ‘0’, the outputs follow the data specified in fault state configuration data words. The following is a truth table to explain this in more detail.

created. This section describes how to modify the default configuration for your 1794-IF8IHNFXT module.

(Full Profile)

Configuring the 1794-IF8IH and 1794-OF8IH modules require programming with RSLogix 5000 version 17. Configuration for the 1794-IF8IHNFXT module is done through the Module Definition interface using Logix Designer version 24 and later, as described in the next sections. See Use the 1794-IF8IHNFXT with the Generic and Thin Profiles

on page 153 if you are using RSLogix 5000 version 23 or earlier.

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 or Logix Designer software.

TIP

1. On the I/O Configuration tree for your project in RSLogix 5000, add your 1794-IF8IHNFXT module. On the New Module dialog that appears when you add your module to the I/O Configuration tree, specify the following properties of the module.

2. Click Open Module Properties. The Module Properties dialog appears and has the following tabs available for configuration.

3. Click any of the tabs to edit the parameters for your module. The next sections show you how to edit the different tabs in the Module Properties dialog.

Tabs can be selected in any order. The following examples are for instructional purposes.

General Tab

The General tab allows you to edit general properties such as Name, Description, and Slot for your module, which you can specify in the New Module dialog, as shown previously.

Rockwell Automation Publication 1794-UM065D-EN-P - April 2020 91

FLEX I/O Isolated Input/Output HART Analog Modules User Manual

You also can edit Module Definition properties such as revision and electronic keying.

Field Name Description

Revision Specifies the module major and minor revision.

General Tab Field Descriptions

Field Name Description

Electronic Keying The electronic keying feature automatically compares the

expected 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:

² Exact Match

² Compatible Module (default)

² 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, if 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 that 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.

Comm Format The following Comm Format options are available:

² Input Data – specifies an independent connection where a

device receives inputs from the target device and send 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.

² Listen-Only and Input Data – The Listen Only mode option

lets the controller and module establish communication without the controller sending any configuration data.

² Input Data and HART PV

² Listen-Only, Input Data and HART PV
