Preface

This manual shows you how to use the analog output module with an

Allen-Bradley programmable controller. It describes methods for

installing, programming, calibrating, and troubleshooting your module.

To make efficient use of your module, you must be able to program and

operate an Allen-Bradley programmable controller. In particular, you must

be able to program block transfer instructions.

In this manual we assume that you know how to do this. If you do not,

refer to the appropriate programming and operations manual for the

processor that you are using.

In this manual we refer to the:

Analog Output Module (cat. no. 1771-OFE) as the “output module”

Programmable Controller as the “processor” or “controller.”

The manual is divided into seven chapters. The following chart shows

each chapter with its corresponding title and a brief overview of the topics

covered in that chapter.

CData Formats

You can install your output module in any system that uses Allen-Bradley

programmable controllers that have block transfer capabilities and the

1771 I/O structure.

For more information on your programmable controllers, contact your

nearest Allen-Bradley office.

The 1771-OFE module can be used with any 1771 I/O chassis.

Communication between the discrete analog module and the processor is

bidirectional; the processor block-transfers output data through the output

image table to the module and block-transfers input data from the module

through the input image table. The module also requires an area in the data

table to store the read block transfer data and write block transfer data. I/O

image table use is an important factor in module placement and addressing

selection. Compatibility and data table use is listed in the following table.

You can place your module in any I/O module slot of the I/O chassis.

You can put two output modules in the same module group.

Do not put the module in the same module group as a discrete high

density module.

Avoid placing output modules close to ac modules or high voltage dc

modules.

controller products, consult our publication index (SD499).

Overview of the Analog Output Module

In this chapter, you will read about:

module features

how analog modules communicate with programmable controllers

module output ranges

The Analog Output Module (cat. no. 1771-OFE) is an intelligent block

transfer module that converts binary or four-digit BCD values (supplied by

your processor) to analog signals at its four module outputs. The module

accomplishes the data transfer with block transfer programming.

Block transfer write (BTW) programming moves up to 13 words of data

from the processor to the module for digital to analog (D/A) conversion in

one program scan. This information is converted to analog signals and is

sent to the appropriate output channels.

A block transfer read (BTR) moves five words of data from the module to

the processor data table, if desired, for diagnostic purposes. The BTR is

discussed in Chapter 7, “Diagnostics and Troubleshooting.”

The module has a scaling feature that converts data sent to the module in

engineering units to the proper analog signals.

You may connect up to four analog output devices--such as valve

positioners, motor speed controllers, signal converters or recorders--to the

analog output module’s four channels. All analog output device inputs

should conform to the voltage or current ratings of each module

output channel.

Module Features

In the programmable controller system, the analog output module provides

the following functions:

four individually isolated differential outputs

selectable scaling to engineering units

selectable data format

selectable voltage ranges (1771-OFE1 only)

no external power required--power is drawn from the 1771 I/O chassis

backplane.

requires only one I/O slot

jumpers

1771OFE2 Current 420mA Factory set

1771OFE3 Current 050mA Factory set

The voltage version (1771-OFE1) voltage output range is selected with

configuration jumpers in the module:

Note: The 1771-OFE1 is shipped with the selection jumpers in the

+10V position.

The current output versions (1771-OFE2 and -OFE3) are factory set.

The processor transfers data to the module (block transfer write) and from

the module (block transfer read) using BTW and BTR instructions in your

ladder diagram program. These instructions let the processor send output

values to the module, establish the module’s mode of operation

(Figure 1.1) and receive status information from the module.

2. The module converts the data into proportional voltage or current

outputs.

3. These module outputs drive external analog devices.

4. When instructed by your ladder program, the processor performs a

read block transfer of output values and module status.

5. The processor and module determine that the transfer was made

without error.

6. Your ladder program can use and/or move the data (if valid) before it

is written over by the transfer of new data in a subsequent transfer.

The accuracy of your output module is described in Appendix A.

In this chapter you read about the functional aspects of the output module

and how the module communicates with the programmable controller.
