module specifications
An output from this module can drive an Allen–Bradley Size 5 motor
starter, provided its supply voltage does not drop below 105V ac. The
maximum load current the module can deliver is 2A per channel, not to
exceed 6A total per module.
The switching device in the output circuit is a triac. There is a small
leakage current in the off state due to both triac and capacitive
characteristics. The maximum leakage current per output is 5mA at
138V ac. Nominal leakage current is 1mA. The on–state voltage drop
across the output terminals is no more than 2.0V ac at 100mA.
The triac needs a minimum of 60mA load current to stay on. If your
device pulls less than 60mA, the triac will not operate. The total
continuous current the module supports is 6A (2A maximum per channel).
If this rating is exceeded, the module overheats and damage may occur.

Suppression
Surge suppression circuitry is provided for the output triacs of this module.
To suppress high–voltage transients from the ac line, a metal–oxide
varistor (MOV) is provided between each set of terminals on the module.
In each output circuit, an RC network limits the magnitude of voltage
transients that may occur when a device is wired in parallel or series with
hard contacts.
Loads with inductive characteristics may require additional suppression
devices. The impedance characteristic of the load is the most important
factor in selecting a suppression device; thus no single suppression device
can be recommended for every possible load. See Table A for acceptable
suppression devices for typical loads.

The isolated output module is powered by the power supply connected to
the I/O chassis backplane. The module requires a maximum current of
225mA from the +5V dc output of this supply. Total the current
requirements of this module with the other modules in the I/O chassis to
avoid overloading the supply or the I/O chassis backplane.

The ac output module is shipped in a static–shielded bag to guard against
electrostatic discharge damage. Observe the following precautions when
handling the module.
ATTENTION: Remove power from the 1771 I/O chassis
backplane and wiring arm before removing or installing an I/O
module.
Failure to remove power form the backplane or wiring arm
could cause module damage, degradation of performance, or
injury.
Failure to remove power from the backplane could cause
injury or equipment damage due to possible unexpected
operation.
Touch a grounded object to rid yourself of charge before handling the
module.
Do not touch the backplane connector or connector pins.
When you configure or replace internal components, do not touch other
circuit components inside the module. If available, use a static–safe
work station.
When not in use, keep the module in its static–shield bag.
In this section we tell you how to key your I/O chassis, install your module
and make your wiring connections
Module Location in the I/O Chassis
Group your modules to minimize adverse effects from radiated electrical
noise and/or heat. We recommend the following.
Group analog input and low voltage dc modules away from ac modules
or high voltage dc modules to minimize electrical noise interference.
Place analog input modules and other I/O modules sensitive to heat
away from slot power supplies to minimize adverse heat effects.

Keying the I/O Chassis
Use the plastic keying bands, shipped with each I/O chassis, to key your
I/O slots to accept only this type of module. Place keying bands between
these numbers labeled on the upper backplane connector:
between 4 and 6
between 30 and 32
Slots on the rear edge of the circuit board are matched to these slots to
allow insertion of the module. You can key any connector in an I/O chassis
to receive this module except for the left–most connector reserved for
adapter or processor modules.
ATTENTION: A module inserted into a wrong slot could be
damaged by improper voltages connected through the wiring
arm. Use keying bands to prevent damage to the module.
Inserting the Module into the Chassis
1. Position the module so that the circuit board on the rear of the module
lines up with the top and bottom card guides in the chassis.
2. Slide the module into the chassis.
3. Press firmly to seat the module in the chassis backplane connector.
4. Swing the module locking latch down into place over the front of the
module.
Connecting Wiring to the module
You make connections to the module through the 1771–WD field wiring
arm shipped with the module. The arm pivots on the chassis to connect
with the 12 terminals on the front of the module (Figure 1). The wiring
arm allows the module to be removed from the chassis without
disconnecting wiring.
1. Make certain all power is removed from the module before making
wiring connections.
2. Swing the wiring arm up into position on the front of the module. The
locking tab on the module will secure it into place.
3. Make your connections to the field wiring arm as shown in Figure 1.
(Use the label on the front of the wiring arm to identify your wiring.)

ATTENTION: The field wiring arm terminal identification
number is not the same as the number of the bit which controls
that output.
You should identify the labels on the wiring arm with the name or number
of the device connected at each terminal.

You can use an output of the 1771–OD module to drive an input of a 120V
ac input module (1771–IA, –IA2, –ID, –IAD) to indicate status of turning
on a motor starter, for example (Figure 2). However, you must add a 2.5K
ohm, 10W resistor (or an Electrocube snubber, pt. no. RG-1676-1) between
the output and L2 (common). Inputs configured with the output module are
not isolated from each other (except for 1771–IAD inputs).
ATTENTION: Do not connect the 1771–OD output channels
in series. Doing so can result in distortion of the output
waveform causing the output devices to chatter.

The module has 12 status indicators (Figure 3). The top 6 indicators show
the state of each output and are driven by the logic circuitry on the
programmable controller side of the module. These indicators light when
their corresponding outputs are energized.
The bottom 6 indicators display a blown–fuse condition at the respective
output regardless of the state of the output. These indicators are driven by
your power supply.

Replacing a Fuse
Each module output is individually fused. You can easily access the
module fuses by removing the front component–side cover.
ATTENTION: Remove power from the 1771 I/O chassis
backplane and wiring arm before removing or installing an I/O
module.
Failure to remove power from the backplane could cause
injury or equipment damage due to possible unexpected
operation.
Failure to remove power from the backplane or wiring arm
could cause module damage, degradation of performance, or
injury.
If a blown fuse occurs:
1. Turn off power to the I/O chassis backplane.
2. Pivot the wiring arm away from the module and pull the module from
the I/O chassis.
3. Remove the front component side cover from the module by
removing the screws securing the cover to the module.
4. Replace the blown fuse.
5. Replace the protective cover and install the module in the I/O chassis.
6. Reposition the wiring arm.
7. Restart system power.
