Introduction
ADI12-8(FIT)GY 1
1. Introduction
Congratulations on your recent purchase of an Insulator Digital Input Module.
By converting external analog voltage signals into digital data, theADI12-8(FIT)GY
can process them inside the F&eIT series controller module < CPU-CAxx(FIT)GYGY,
CPU-SBxx(FIT)GY etc >.
The insulation between external signals and the Controller Module permits the use of
the Controller Module without compromising the communications features of the latter.
Please read this manual carefully to create application programs and configure the
system, such as setting the switches and connecting it to external devices.
Features
- The input range is common to different channels, and can be selected from four input
ranges, including unipolar and bipolar ranges.
- The ability to accommodate differential input permits the accurate measurement of
voltage values over long distances from the signal source and even under a
considerable potential difference.
- A rotary switch allows you to set device IDs to help you keep track of device
numbers.
- The system incorporates a screwless connector plug that allows you to easily attach
and detach wires without using any special tools.
- Similar to other F&eIT series products, the system, in the module itself, incorporates
a 35-mm DIN rail mounting mechanism as a standard item. A connection to a
controller module can be effected on a lateral, stack basis in a unique configuration,
which permits a simple, smart system configuration without the need for a backplane
board.

* The API-SBP(W32) is included in the development kit
DTK-SBxx(FIT)GY; the other drivers are bundled with each controller.
Control using the I/O address map
When connected to the CPU-SBxx(FIT)GY, the ADI12-8(FIT)GY can receive I/O
instructions directly from the controller module. For details, see Chapter 4 “Using the
I/O Address Map”.
Control using the memory address map
When connected to the CPU-CAxx(FIT)GY, the ADI12-8(FIT)GY can be accessed
from the host computer over the network.
The ADI12-8(FIT)GY is assigned with its device ID in the memory managed by the
controller module. The application running on the host computer controls the module
by reading/writing the memory managed by the controller module. For details, see
Chapter 5 “Using the Memory Address Map”.
Control via the Windows driver
For the functions and settings available when using the Windows driver, refer to the
reference manual and online help for each module.
Control over the web
You can monitor collected data and manage the log over the web. You can use your
familiar browser to easily make various settings. For details, refer to the reference
manual for the SVR-MMF2(FIT), SVR-MMF(FIT)GY.
