SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module 3
Publication 1746-IN012B-EN-P - May 2001
Overview
The RTD module receives and stores digitally converted analog data from RTDs or
other resistance inputs such as potentiometers into its image table for retrieval by
all fixed and modular SLC 500 processors. An RTD consists of a
temperature-sensing element connected by 2, 3 or 4 wires that provide input to the
RTD module. The module supports connections from any combination of up to
four RTDs of various types (for example: platinum, nickel, copper, or nickel-iron)
or other resistance inputs. See the input specifications beginning on page 20 for
RTD types, their associated temperature ranges, and the analog input signal ranges
that each 1746-NR4 channel will support. Each input channel is individually
configurable for a specific input device. Broken sensor detection (open- or
short-circuit) is provided for each input channel. In addition, the module provides
indication if the input signal is out-of-range.
The module contains a removable terminal block providing connection for any mix
of four RTD sensors or resistance input devices. There are no output channels on
the module. Module configuration is done via the user program. There are no DIP
switches.
Channel Status LEDs
Channel status LEDs indicate the status for channels 0 through 3. Related error
information is contained in the channel status word. This includes conditions such
as:
•normal operation
•channel-related configuration errors
•open circuit errors
•out-of-range errors
All channel errors are recoverable errors.
Module Status LED
The module status LED shows diagnostic or operating errors related to the module.
These non-recoverable errors may be detected during power up or during
operation. Once an error has been detected, the module no longer communicates
with the SLC processor. Channel states are disabled, and data words are cleared (0).
Failure of any diagnostic test results in a non-recoverable error and requires the
assistance of your local distributor or Rockwell Automation.

Electrostatic Damage
Electrostatic discharge can damage semiconductor devices inside this module if you
touch backplane connector pins or other sensitive areas. Guard against electrostatic
damage by observing the following precautions.
•Wear an approved wrist strap grounding device when handling the module.
•Touch a grounded object to rid yourself of electrostatic charge before
handling the module.
•Handle the module from the front, away from the backplane connector. Do
not touch backplane connector pins.
•Keep the module in its static-shield bag when not in use, or during
shipment.
NR4 Power Requirements
The RTD module receives its power through the SLC 500 chassis backplane from
the fixed or modular +5V dc/+24V dc chassis power supply. The maximum current
drawn by the module is shown in the table below.
When you are using a modular system configuration, add the values shown in the
table above to the requirements of all other modules in the SLC chassis to prevent
overloading the chassis power supply.
When you are using a fixed system controller, refer to the important note about
module compatibility in a 2-slot fixed expansion chassis on page 6.
Modular Chassis Considerations
Place your RTD module in any slot of an SLC 500 modular chassis (except slot 0) or
a modular expansion chassis. Slot 0 is reserved for the modular processor or
adapter modules.
ATTENTION
!
Electrostatic discharge can degrade performance or cause
permanent damage. Handle the module as stated below.

Fixed Expansion Chassis Considerations
General Considerations
Most applications require installation in an industrial enclosure to reduce the effects
of electrical interference. RTD inputs are susceptible to electrical noises due to the
small amplitudes of their signal.
Group your modules to minimize adverse effects from radiated electrical noise and
heat. Consider the following conditions when selecting a slot for the RTD module.
Position the module:
•in a slot away from power lines, load lines and other sources of electrical
noise such as hard-contact switches, relays, and AC motor drives
•away from modules which generate significant radiated heat, such as the
32-point I/O modules
IMPORTANT The 2-slot, SLC 500 fixed I/O expansion chassis (1746-A2)
supports many combinations of modules. The combinations that
are not supported by the fixed expansion chassis are shown in
the table below. For a complete listing of valid combinations
using the RTD module in a 2-slot expansion chassis with
another SLC I/O or communication module, refer to the table in
the SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module User Manual,
publication 1746-6.7.

Terminal Block Removal
If the terminal block is removed, use the write-on label located on the side of the
terminal block to identify the module location and type.
To remove the terminal block:
1. Loosen the two terminal block release screws.
2. Grasp the terminal block at the top and bottom and pull outward and down.
Wiring Considerations
Follow the guidelines below when planning your system wiring.
Since the operating principle of the RTD module is based on the measurement of
resistance, take special care in selecting your input cable. For 2-wire or 3-wire
configuration, select a cable that has a consistent impedance throughout its entire
length.
For a 3-wire configuration, the module can compensate for a maximum cable
length associated with an overall cable impedance of 25 ohms.
As shown in the figure on the next page, three configurations of RTDs can be
connected to the RTD module:
•2-wire RTD, which is composed of 2 RTD lead wires (RTD and Return)
•3-wire RTD, which is composed of a Sense and 2 RTD lead wires (RTD and
Return)
•4-wire RTD, which is composed of 2 Sense and 2 RTD lead wires (RTD and
Return). The second sense wire of a 4-wire RTD is left open. It does not
matter which sense wire is left open.

SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module 11
Publication 1746-IN012B-EN-P - May 2001
•To limit overall cable impedance, keep input cables as short as possible.
Locate your I/O chassis as near the RTD sensors as your application will
permit.
•Ground the shield drain wire at one end only. The preferred location is at
the RTD module. Refer to IEEE Std. 518, Section 6.4.2.7 or contact your
sensor manufacturer for additional details.
•Each input channel has a shield connection screw terminal that provides a
connection to chassis ground. All shields are internally connected, so any
shield terminal can be used with channels 0 to 3.
•Route RTD/resistance input wiring away from any high-voltage I/O wiring,
power lines, and load lines.
•Tighten terminal screws using a flat or cross-head screwdriver. Each screw
should be turned tight enough to immobilize the wire’s end. Excessive
tightening can strip the terminal screw. The torque applied to each screw
should not exceed 0.7 to 0.9 Nm (6 to 8 in-lb.) for each terminal.
•Follow system grounding and wiring guidelines found in your SLC 500
Modular Hardware Style User Manual, publication 1747-6.2.
When using a 3-wire configuration, the module compensates for resistance error
due to lead wire length. For example, in a 3-wire configuration, the module reads
the resistance due to the length of one of the wires and assumes that the resistance
of the other wire is equal. If the resistances of the individual lead wires are much
different, an error may exist. The closer the resistance values are to each other, the
greater the amount of error that is eliminated.
IMPORTANT The RTD module requires three wires to compensate for lead
resistance error. We recommend that you do not use 2-wire
RTDs if long cable runs are required, as it will reduce the
accuracy of the system. However, if a 2-wire configuration is
required, reduce the effect of the lead wire resistance by using a
lower gauge wire for the cable (for example, useAWG #16
instead of AWG #24). Also, use cable that has a lower resistance
per foot of wire. The module’s terminal block accepts two AWG
#14 gauge wires.
IMPORTANT To ensure temperature or resistance value accuracy, the
resistance difference of the cable lead wires must be equal to or
less than 0.01Ω.

12 SLC 500™ RTD/Resistance Input Module
Publication 1746-IN012B-EN-P - May 2001
There are several ways to insure that the lead values match as closely as possible.
They are as follows:
•Keep lead resistance as small as possible and less than 25Ω.
•Use quality cable that has a small tolerance impedance rating.
•Use a heavy-gauge lead wire which has less resistance per foot.
Wiring Resistance Devices (Potentiometers) to the NR4 Module
Potentiometer wiring requires the same type of cable as that for the RTD described
on page 9. Potentiometers can be connected to the RTD module as a 2-wire
interconnection or a 3-wire interconnection as shown on the following pages.
TIP Potentiometer wiper arm can be connected to either the RTD
or Return terminal, depending on whether you want
increasing or decreasing resistance.

Wiring Input Devices to the NR4 Module
To wire your NR4 module, follow these steps.
1. At each end of the cable, strip some casing to expose the individual wires.
2. Trim the signal wires to 5.08 cm (2 in.) lengths. Strip about 4.76 mm
(3/16 in.) of insulation away to expose the end of the wire.
3. At one end of the cable twist the drain wire and foil shield together, bend
them away from the cable, and apply shrink wrap. Then earth ground at the
shield terminal.
4. At the other end of the cable, cut the drain wire and foil shield back to the
cable and apply shrink wrap.
5. Connect the signal wires and cable shield to the NR4 terminal block and the
input.
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for each channel on the NR4 module.

Channel Configuration
Once the module is installed, each channel can be configured to establish the way
the channel will operate. You configure the channel by entering bit values into the
configuration word using your programming software. Channels 0 through 3 on the
NR4 are configured by entering bit values into output words 0 through 3
respectively. Output words 4 through 7 are used to further define the channel
configuration to allow you to choose a scaling format other than the module default
when using the proportional counts format. You can use words 4 and 5 to define
one user-set range. Use words 6 and 7 to define a second range. See the table
below for a bit-by-bit examination of the configuration word.
