摘要:
An interface circuit is provided for an Input/Output (I/O) module in an industrial controller to compensate for voltage generated by a bias current in a thermocouple. During a calibration routine, the interface circuit supplies two known bias currents to a thermocouple and measures a voltage generated across the thermocouple as a result of each bias current. The measured voltages and known current values are used to determine the resistance value of the thermocouple leads. Using two known bias currents provides for an accurate measurement of the resistance value of the thermocouple leads when the thermocouple is generating a voltage corresponding to the measured temperature. Either the I/O module or the industrial controller may determine a voltage resulting from the bias current applied to the thermocouple during operation as a function of the measured resistance and compensate the voltage measured at the thermocouple leads to accurately determine the measured temperature.

摘要:
An output module for an industrial controller configurable to simplify setup and commissioning is disclosed. The output module includes configurable PWM outputs that may be scheduled to start at different times within the PWM period, that may be configured to generate a fixed number of PWM pulses, and that may have an extendable PWM period. The output terminals are configurable to enter a first state upon generation of a fault and further configurable to enter a second state after a configurable time delay following the fault being generated. The output module may receive inputs signals directly from another module and set output signals at the terminals responsive to these signals.
