Features
Block features include:
Six 4-to-20 mA input circuits
Isolated channels
No user calibration required for operation
Software configurable
Advanced diagnostics
Dedicated Bus Switching Module control
A Current Source Input block has six 4-to-20mA current inputs.
Each input provides a 24 volt current loop power supply and is
isolated from all other circuits within the block. The BSM circuitry is
electrically common to Input 1, but isolated from the other inputs.
All circuits on the block support independent selection of linear
scaling values. These values can be used to convert the internal
values into engineering units suitable for the application.
Block diagnostics include:
low and high alarm reporting
overrange and underrange detection
open wire detection
internal fault reporting
A dedicated digital output is provided to drive a Bus Switching
Module (version IC66*BSM021 only).

Using this Datasheet ____________________________
This datasheet summarizes information about block installation,
configuration, and diagnostics.
Your primary reference should be the Discrete and Analog Blocks
User’s Manual. It includes detailed instructions for block installation
and configuration.
For additional information about systems and communications,
including bus specifications, refer to the I/O System and
Communications Manual.
Compatibility __________________________________
Current Source Input blocks require a phase B Hand-held Monitor
(IC66*HHM501H, version 4.5 or later) for configuration.
For an IC697 series PLC, the programming software must be
version 3.0 or later. Bus controller IC697BEM731C or later is
required.
For an IC600 series PLC, the CPU must be rev. 105 or later. For an
IC600 series “Plus” PLC, rev. 110 or later is required. The
programming software must be rel. 4.02 or later. These blocks are
compatible with bus controllers IC66*CCBB902 and 903. They are
not compatible with bus controllers IC66*CBB900 and 901.
For an IC550 series PLC, the CPU must be rev. 3.0 or later. The
programming software must be rel. 2.01 or later.
If a Bus Switching Module will be attached directly to the block, it
must be the 24/48 VDC version (IC66*BSM021).
Installation Instructions _________________________
Carefully inspect all shipping containers for damage. If any
equipment is damaged, notify the delivery service immediately. Save
the damaged shipping container for inspection by the delivery
service. After unpacking the equipment, record all serial numbers.
Save the shipping containers and packing material in case it is
necessary to transport or ship any part of the system.
Block Mounting
Genius I/O blocks are considered "open equipment" and therefore
must be installed within a protective enclosure. They should be
located in an area that is clean and free of airborne contaminants.
There should be adequate cooling airflow.
The block can be mounted right side up, or upside down. Leave at
least 2 inches of space between blocks. Mount the block by drilling
two screw or bolt holes for 8-32 hardware. Position the block so that
the notches in the upper and lower flanges line up with the mounting
holes. Mount the block using 8-32 screws. Use star washers to
provide ground integrity.
Grounding
The block’s mounting screws must not be used as the only means of
grounding the block. Connect the green ground screw on the block to a
reliable ground system using a short wire lead, minimum size AWG #12
(avg 3.3mm2 in cross-section).
Warning
If mounting screws do not make good ground connection and
the ground screw is not connected to a reliable ground, the
block is not grounded. Electrical shock hazard exists. Death or
personal injury may result.
Block Wiring __________________________________
Do not overtorque the terminal screws. Recommended torque for all
terminals is 6 in/lb (.678 N/M).
Serial Bus Wiring
Terminals 1 to 4 are for the serial bus. These terminals accept one
AWG #12 wire (avg 3.3mm2cross-section) or two AWG #14 wires
(each avg 2.1mm2in cross-section). The minimum recommended wire
size is AWG #22 (avg .36mm2in cross-section).
Terminals 1 - 4 can also accommodate spade or ring terminals up to
0.27 inch (6.85mm) wide with a minimum opening for a #6 screw, and up
to 0.20 inch (5.1mm) depth from the screw center to the back barrier.
Be sure unshielded wire ends are not longer than 2 inches (5 cm).
Using one of the cable types recommended in the System and
Communications User’s Manual, connect the serial bus to terminals 1- 4.

Field Wiring ___________________________________
Terminals 5 to 32 are for field devices. They take a single wire up to
AWG #14 (avg 2.1mm2in cross-section). Minimum recommended
size is AWG #20 (avg .54mm2in cross-section).
The ground (GND) terminal (5) is for block safety. It is connected to
the block chassis, and to terminals 13, 20, 24, 28, and 32. These
terminals, which are marked GND, are for shield termination, if
desired.
Self-powered or externally-powered transmitters are wired differently
from those powered by the block.
Wiring for Block Power
For block power, connect an appropriate power source to terminals 6
and 7. For AC block power, connect the source to the H terminal
and neutral to the N terminal. For DC block power, connect the
source to the DC+ terminal and the return to the DC- terminal.

Block Operation ________________________________
A Current-source Analog Input block has six independent inputs.
Input channels use voltage to frequency converters and counters to
translate analog currents to a digital value. This value is converted
by the block to engineering units before it is sent to the CPU. A
diagram of an input circuit is shown below.

Each input circuit has a 24 volt current loop power supply, capable
of providing 25mA of current. Each input is isolated from all other
circuits on the block. Input accuracy is 0.1%. Input conversion time
can be selected to provide the appropriate combination of noise
rejection and input resolution. Conversion times are programmable
from 16ms to 400ms. Resolution increases as the conversion time
is lengthened. Input resolution is 1µA for 200ms conversion time.
Upper and lower alarm limits can be programmed for each input
circuit. If either limit is exceeded, the block indicates a fault and
sends a message to the Hand-held Monitor and CPU.
The following illustration shows the input excitation current derating
versus temperature. The maximum excitation current per channel is
25mA.

Diagnostics _________________________________
The block’s advanced diagnostics provide the messages listed below.
Fault messages can be cleared from the Hand-held Monitor or the CPU.
Input Open Wire: Input current is below 2mA.
Input High Alarm: Input exceeds high alarm level.
Input Low Alarm: Input exceeds low alarm level.
Input Overrange: Signal exceeds 25mA.
Input Underrange: Current is negative, or 0mA.
Configuration _________________________________
First, the block must be configured with a Hand-held Monitor to:
Enter its Device Number (serial bus address).
Enter its Reference Number (required only for IC600 and IC550
series PLCs only).
The rest of the features can be configured either using a Hand-held
Monitor, or by sending a Write Configuration datagram to the block from
the host.
Note: If a block is configured offline, it must be properly grounded and
have a 75 Ohm resistor installed across its Serial 1 and Serial 2
terminals. See the Discrete and Analog I/O Blocks User’s Manual for
instructions.
