Characteristics

• 2 analog inputs for measuring current
• Channels electrically isolated from each other and from the backplane bus
• 2 process input words
• Measuring ranges: 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, ±20 mA, individually configurable for each channel
• Measurement resolution: up to 15 bits + sign
• Diagnostic messages
• Wire break detection (for 4-20 mA)
• Limit value alarms for each channel
• A bi-color LED (blue/red) indicates the module’s operating status and any malfunctions
• Red/green bi-color LEDs (one for each channel) indicate the channels' states
