OverviewMIQ/IC2
1.2Features of the MIQ/IC2
General characteristicsThe MI Q/IC2 current input module provides two 0/4 ... 20 mA current
inputs for the IQ S
ters via their current output. Measured values of the external meters
can be displayed, recorded and processed like the measured values
from IQ S
ENSOR NET sensors.
Examples of external meters:
Measuring transmitters by YSI
Measuring transmitters by other manufactur ers
Measuring transmitters with explosion prot ection via a power sup-
ply/isolator
Analyzers

With the standard MIQ module housing, the MIQ/IC2 has the same
characteristics as all MIQ modules regarding stability, leakproofness
and weather resistance. It also pr ovides the same wide variety of inst allation options (stacked mounting, canopy mounting, tophat rail
mounting, etc.).
Terminal stripThe MIQ/IC2 has the following electrical connections on the terminal
strip inside the housing:
2 x current input (0/4 ... 20 mA)
2 x SENSORNET connection
1 x power supply/isolator feed-in

NSTALLATION chapter of the system operat ing
Software requirements
of the IQ S
ENSOR NET
Software requirements for the settings of Unit and Measured parame-
ter:
Controller from version 2.58
Terminal from version 2.55
When using older software versions, i t is not possi ble to enter t exts for
the settings of Unit and Measured parameter. The measured value
display displays the numerical value of the correl ated measured value
without designation.
Note
It is possible to update the so ftware if your componen ts have older software versions. Contact the YSI service depar tment.
3.3Connecting external meters to the current inputs
Warning
If external electrical cir cuits that are subject to the danger of physical contact are incorrectly connect ed to the current inputs, ther e
may be a danger of life threatening electric shock. Electrica l circuits are regarded to be subject to the danger of physical contact
when there are voltages higher than the Safety Extra Low Voltage
(SELV).

Connecting external
meters via a power sup-
ply/isolator
The current outputs of external meters c an be directly connected to the
current inputs of the MIQ/IC2 module vi a a power su pply/i solato r. Connecting via a power supply/isolator is necessary for measurements in
potentially explosive areas, for example.
If the connection data of the power supply/ isolators is su itable, it is possible to supply up to two power suppl y/isolators with power vi a the feedin connector on the MIQ/IC2 module.

OverviewThe MIQ/IC2 module provides two 0/4 ... 20 mA current inputs for the
IQ S
ENSOR NET. Each current input appears in the measured value
display, the Edit list of sensors over view and the Settings of sensors and diff. sensors menu.
Each current input is treated like a sensor ("current sensor") by the
IQ S
ENSOR NET and has a separate setting menu.
On initial commissioning, only current input 1 is registered on the
IQ S
ENSOR NET. The measured value display indicat es the value of the
current at current input 1 in mA.
The correlated measured value (display val ue) is displayed without any
designation of Unit and Measured parameter and, in the delivery
condition, is identical with the current value (default setting).
After the display values at the measuring range limits have been set
and the Unit and Measured parameter have been specified, the correlated measured value corresponds to the measured value of the sensor, e.g. of a DO sensor:
ba76034e0101/2012
Fig. 4-1Example: correlated measured value of a DO sensor
Activate current input 2 in the Settings of sensors and diff. sensors
menu of current input 1. The setting menus of both current inputs are
identical except for the activation of current input 2.
If the physical input current range is exceeded, OFL is displayed
(measuring range exceeded or undercut).
Note
The general operating principles are given in the system operating
manual or in the component operating manual of the terminal components.
