Overview
The NI [c]FP-AIO-600 is a versatile combination analog input and analog output
module for Compact FieldPoint and FieldPoint that you can use to measure
voltages and 0 to 20 or 4 to 20 mA current loops from industrial sensors and
transmitters and to control valves, gauges, and other industrial actuators. The
[c]FP-AIO-600 is ideal for low-channel-count systems or for PID control with
high-speed I/O. The module has overranging and onboard diagnostics to ensure
trouble-free installation and maintenance. The [c]FP-AIO-600 measures and
linearizes signals onboard to return scaled values to your control or monitoring
software, accept engineering units from your control or monitoring software,
and automatically scale and linearize output signals. The [c]FP-AIO-600 module
comes with a NIST-traceable calibration certificate, ensuring accurate and
reliable analog measurement and control.
Smart I/O Module
You can connect the [c]FP-AIO-600 directly to industrial actuators or units under
test and achieve high-accuracy measurement and control. The module calibrates,
scales engineering units to sensor signals, and performs self-diagnostics to
look for problems with the module or with the wiring, such as open current
loops. With the [c]FP-AIO-600 module, your software application reads and
writes engineering values from the module, eliminating the error-prone step of
converting voltage or current to binary values.
The module has an update rate of 1.7 kHz. Overall data throughput depends
on the software loop speeds and the network speeds.
[c]FP-AIO-600
The [c]FP-AIO-600 includes four 0 to 30 V or 0 to 20/4 to 20 mA analog inputs
and four 0 to 20/4 to 20 mA analog outputs. The analog inputs and outputs use a
12-bit DAC. Each output channel includes a monitoring circuit and LED indicator
for open current loop detection. The [c]FP-AIO-600 requires an external power
supply, providing 5 to 30 VDC.
Isolation
The [c]FP-AIO-600 features optical bank isolation with 2,300 V_rms of breakdown
isolation. These Compact FieldPoint and FieldPoint modules do not have
channel-to-channel isolation.
Field I/O Connections
Compact FieldPoint and FieldPoint modules include a built-in power distribution
bus that provides multiple power connections on the module. A field-wired
power supply connected to the voltage (V) and common (C) terminals is internally
connected to a power distribution bus that provides additional breakout
terminals for voltage supply (V_sup) and common (COM). These terminals offer a
convenient way to distribute power to field devices that require external power.
The [c]FP-AIO-600 has:
◾◾ _{4 voltage input terminals (Vin)}
◾◾ _{4 current input terminals (Iin)}
◾◾ _{4 current output terminals (Iout)}
◾◾ _{12 common terminals (COM)}
◾◾ _{8 power connections for field devices or current loops (Vsup)}
