Installation Instructions
High current flowing through potential jumpers UMand UScauses the temperature of the potential
jumpers and the internal temperature of the terminal to increase. Observe the following instructions
to keep the current flowing through the potential jumpers of the analog terminals as low as possible:
All of the analog terminals need a separate main circuit.
If this is not possible in your application and if you are using analog terminals in a main
circuit together with other terminals, place the analog terminals behind all the other
terminals at the end of the main circuit.

Connection Notes
Do not simultaneously apply current and voltage signals to one input channel as you will
not obtain valid measured values.
Do not connect voltages above ±2.5 V to a current input. The electronics module will be
damaged if the maximum permissible current of ±100 mA is exceeded.
Always connect the analog sensors using shielded, twisted-pair cables.
Connect the shielding to the VersaPoint terminal using the shield clamp. The clamp con-
nects the shield directly to FE (functional earth ground) on the terminal side. Additional
wiring is not required.
Isolate the shielding at the sensor or connect it with a high resistance and a capacitor to
the PE potential.

Process Data Output Words OUT[0] and OUT[1]
The terminal must be configured using the two
process data output words. The word OUT[0]
contains the command and the word OUT[1]
contains the parameters for this command.
The following configurations are possible:
–Selecting a measuring range according to
the input signal
–Selecting the mean-value generation (filte-
ring)
–Changing the formats for the representation
of measured values
Current or voltage measurement is
selected by applying the measured si-
gnal to the current or voltage input
and then configuring the measuring
range.
After applying voltage (power up) to
the VersaPoint station, the message
"Measured value invalid" (diagnostic
code 8004hex) appears in the process
data input words for every channel
scanned. The message is displayed
until the appropriate channel has
been configured.
If the configuration is changed, the
message "Measured value invalid"
(diagnostic code 8004hex) appears for
a maximum of 100 ms.
Please note the extended runtime
when a channel is configured for the
first time and every time a channel is
reconfigured.

Process Data Input Words IN[0] and IN[1]
The measured values and diagnostic messages (diagnostic codes) are transmitted to the controller
board or computer using the two process data input words. The contents of the words vary according
to the command.
IN[0] and IN[1] for Commands 0x00hex to 6000hex
Figure 7 Process data input words
IN[0]
The output word OUT[0], which contains the command code, is mirrored in the input word IN[0]. This
confirms that the command has been executed correctly. If the command was not executed correctly,
the error bit is set in bit 15 of the input word IN[0].
The error bit is set if one of the following reasons (see page 29):
–There is no valid configuration for the channel scanned
–There was an invalid parameter during configuration
–A reserved bit was set
The command is only mirrored if it has been executed completely. That means, for example, that the
5x00hex command is only mirrored after the value has been read and not after reconfiguration.

For the group commands 7x00hex, both input words contain the measured values of the channels that
correspond with the group command.
Group Commands for Two 16-bit Channels: 7400hex, 7500hex, 7600hex, and 7700hex
With commands for two 16-bit channels, the analog value of one channel is mapped to every input
word. The display corresponds with the display in the input word IN[1] for the 0x00hex and 5x00hex
commands.

Group Commands for Four 8-bit Channels: 7000hex and 7100hex
With commands for four channels, the analog values for two channels are mapped to every input
word. The measured value for each channel is represented in eight bits. This measured value corre-
sponds to bits 15 to 8 in the format displays of a 16-bit value.

Formats for Representation of Measured Values
To ensure that the terminal can be operated in previously used data formats, the measured value re-
presentation can be switched to different formats. The "IB IL" format is the default.
Abbreviations used in the following tables:
"IB IL" Format
The measured value is represented in bits 14 to 0. An additional bit (bit 15) is available as a sign bit.
This format supports extended diagnostics. Values > 8000hex and < 8100hex indicate an error.
The following diagnostic codes are possible:
