Deck 6: Modular Controllogix Digital and Analog I-O Configuration

Question 1

Until the modules are configured, no I/O tags are available in the monitor or edit tags views of the controller scoped tags collection.

Answer 1

True

Question 2

____________________ output modules have the ability to determine the actual state of the output point when the point is commanded to be on.

Answer 2

Diagnostic

Question 3

Briefly explain what occurs when a project is downloaded into the controller and the controller is put into Run mode.

Answer 3

When a project is downloaded into the controller and the controller is put into Run mode, the owner controller establishes communication, or "connection," to the module and then sends each module it owns the module's configuration. Until a module receives its configuration, it does not know how to behave and is in waiting mode.

Question 4

The ____________________ controller holds the I/O configuration for each module it owns.

Question 5

An output module may have multiple owners, whereas an input module can only have one owner.

Question 6

When an integer format is selected, scaling of the outputs is not configurable in the I/O configuration.

Question 7

In setting up a module's properties, the time period entry for output information to be sent from the output tags to this output module is known as the ____________________.

Question 8

Using RSLogix 5000 software, why is configuring I/O modules a manual process rather than having a "read I/O configuration feature" as found in RSLogix 500 software?

Question 9

Inhibiting a module is typically used during startups or ____________________.

Question 10

What are four general options for setting up ownership in the I/O configuration?

Question 11

The conversion of the analog incoming signal to the initial value stored in the module is called the ____________________ data.

Question 12

When beginning the I/O configuration process, what are three methods for selecting the module in the Select Module window?

Question 13

Latch diagnostics can be cleared directly using a ladder logic clear instruction.

Question 14

When selecting electronic keying, a user needs to determine how closely matched a module replacement must be to the original part number, manufacturer, and major and minor revision. What are the three choices?

Question 15

In an error code,
e.g., 16#0106, the 16# signifies that the radix of the error code is octal.
