Rules
Number
1. The High Scale Value Engineering Units cannot be equal to the Low Scale Value
Engineering Units.
2. The High Scale Value A/D Units must be greater than the Low Scale Value A/D Units.
3. The High Alarm must be greater than the Low Alarm.
4. The Alarm Limits must be within the configured Engineering Units minus User Offset
range, for example if the High and Low Engineering Unit Scale values are 10,000 and -
10,000 and User Offset is 1000, the alarm limit range is +9,000 to -11,000.
IC695ALG704
5. The valid range of Clamp Limits (if enabled) and Default Value is extended slightly
IC695ALG708
beyond the alarm limits minus User Offset, depending on the configured Range.
IC695ALG728
6. Integer Current: +/- 400 Eng Units (0-20mA +400 Eng Units only) Floating Point Current:
+/- 0.4 Eng Units (0-20mA +0.4 Eng Units only) Integer Voltage: +/- 500 Eng Units
Floating Point Voltage: +/-0.5 Eng Units
7. The minimum (slowest) ramp rate is the higher Engineering Unit Scale Value minus the
lower Engineering Unit Scale Value divided by 60,000. Put another way, the minimum
ramp rate must be no slower than the full Engineering Units range traversed in 60
seconds.
1. through 7: Same as IC695ALG708
8. Open Wire Enable Diagnostic reporting is only valid when the module's Range Type is
IC695MDL808 Voltage/Current and the Range is set to a Current Range.
9. Short Circuit Enable Diagnostic reporting is only valid when the module's Range Type is
Voltage/Current and the Range is set to a Voltage Range.
IC695ALG112 1. through 5: Same as IC695ALG616
1. The counter High Range value must be greater than the Low Range Value.
2. If a counter is configured as Continuous within high/low range or One-shot within
high/low range, the PreLoad Value must be within the range.
IC695HSC308 3. If 1ms is selected as the Timebase Units, the Timebase range is 1 to 429496. If Units are
1 µs, the range is 1 to 429496729. If Units are 100 ns, range is 1 to 2147483647.
4. To be used as a counter Setpoint output and External Output must be configured as
Setpoint(s) on the Outputs Tab.
Basic Module Parameters
The module parameters define how the IO-Controller scans and stores the module's data. The number of
address ranges varies by module and sub-module. For discrete data, there is a starting address and a length for
input data and another starting address and length for output data. Analog data can be listed with each analog
value as a separate address and a length of one or as a group with the starting address listed and an overall
length value. What is available can depend on the Configuration Tool.
Input Data / The address in the IO-Controller's reference memory for the module's data.
Output Data:
For PACSystems CPUs: Discrete Data can be added to %G, %I, %Q, %T, and %M memory
areas. Non-Discrete Data can be added to %AI, %AQ, %R, %W, %G, %T, and %M memory
areas.
Length: For discrete modules, the length of the input /output data is fixed and cannot be edited.
Other Data: Some modules have other data areas such as Module Status, ESCP Point Status, or Digital
Filter settings. Refer to the PACSystems RX3i System Manual, GFK-2314, for more details
about the data of each I/O Module.
