5501-376 WOODWARD Discrete I/O Module

Description:

5501-376 is a Analog I/O Module developed by Woodward. The circuitry in the High Density Analog I/O module supports four speed sensor inputs, eight analog inputs, four analog outputs, and two proportional actuator driver outputs. Each speed sensor input can be magnetic or proximity probe, each analog input can be 4-20 mA or 0-5 V, and each actuator driver can be 4-20 mA or 20-160 mA. The Analog Combo Modules are available in two configurations. The analog inputs on one are set to 4-20 mA, while the analog inputs on the other are set to 0-5 V. In a simplex system, either Analog Combo module is connected to one Analog Combo FTM via two analog cables. The FTM supports all of the I/O, and the channels are labeled to correspond to their software locations, for example, analog input 1 on the FTM corresponds to analog input 1 in the application software. This module contains no potentiometers and does not require calibration. A module can be replaced with another module with the same part number with no modifications.

Installation
The modules are inserted into card guides in the control's chassis and connected to the motherboard. Two screws, one at the top and one at the bottom of the front panel, hold the modules in place. There are also two handles at the top and bottom of the module that, when toggled (pushed outward), move the modules out just far enough for the boards to disengage the motherboard connectors.
The Analog Combo Modules are available in two configurations. The analog inputs on one are set to 4-20 mA, while the analog inputs on the other are set to 0-5 V. Specific part numbers can be found in Appendix A. In a simplex system, each Analog Combo module is connected to one Analog Combo FTM via two Low Density analog cables. On the FTM, all I/O is accessible, and the channels are labeled to correspond to their software locations.
