FAQ
- Can it replace the old model IS200BPPBH2CAA?Yes. The hardware interfaces are fully compatible for direct replacement. Please migrate the original jumper settings, re-download programs via ControlST and verify all channels before use.
- Does it support HART protocol?No. It is a native analog I/O board. A separate external HART module is required to connect HART devices.
- What happens if the operating temperature exceeds the specified range?When temperature goes above +85℃ or below -40℃, the module will activate over-temperature/low-temperature protection, cut off outputs and light up the fault LED. Long-term operation beyond the temperature range will cause permanent damage to internal components.
- How to calibrate analog channels?Input standard 4-20mA/0-10V signals via a signal generator. Access the channel calibration page in ControlST, perform zero and span calibration, then save the settings.
- Is GE original power supply mandatory?Original GE power supply is recommended. If using a third-party 24V DC power supply, it shall meet the requirements: voltage fluctuation within ±5%, ripple less than 100mV and rated power no less than 50W, to avoid module malfunctions caused by unstable power.
