Introduction
The M-7017R is an 8-channel analog input module with an extremely high quality
protection mechanism where the overvoltage protection is 240 Vrms. The input type
includes both voltage and current. The sampling rate of the M-7017R is adjustable,
meaning that either fast mode or normal mode can be selected. The M-7017R also
has 4 kV ESD protection as well as 3000 VDC intra-module isolation. The I-7017R-
A5 is an 8-channel analog input module that is especially designed for high voltage
input, and has an input range of between -50 V ~ +50 V or -150 V ~ +150 V. The M-
7017R and M-7017R-A5 has the same specifications as the I-7017R and I-7017R-A5,
but provides additional support for the Modbus RTU protocol as well as the DCON
protocol.

Trouble Shooting
Q1. How to do when forgot module address or baud rate?
Please turn to INIT mode, and run DCON Utility to search.
The module supports DCON protocol at the INIT mode.
And the address is 0. The communication setting is “9600,N,8,1”.
Q2. How to configure the I-7000 and M-7000 modules?
ICP DAS provide DCON Utility to configure I-7000 and M-7000 modules.
Please download the last version from: http://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/cd/8000cd/napdos/driver/dcon_utility/
Q3. How to calibrate the analog input module?
Usually it is not necessary to calibrate the analog input module.
However, in case you need to perform this operation, we provide a function to calibrate the module.
Please refer to user manual 1.10.
Notice:
1. Please update DCON Utility to version 5.2.3 or more.
2. Keep the module running more than 30 minutes to warm-up.
Q4. How to measure the current?
I-7017R and M-7017R require optional external resistance (125Ω) for current measurement.
Please refer wired connections diagram.
And then select a suitable input range by DCON Utility.
Or please use our I-7017RC or M-7017RC modules.
Q5. How to programming with I-7000 or M-7000 by C#, VB, VC?
ICP DAS I-7000 and M-7000 series both support DCON protocol. And Only M-7000 series supports Modbus protocol.
For DCON protocol, please download SDK and Demo from:
http://ftp.icpdas.com/pub/cd/8000cd/napdos/driver/dcon_dll_new/
For Modbus protocol, please refer this web link:
