Series MSP Isolating Transmitter
Adds Single Channel Analog In or Out to a PLC, Field Re-Configure Signal Range
 

The MSP family of analog I/O blocks offers the freedom to use any analog sensor with many models of PLC. Each MSP block provides a single analog input (or output) interface between the PLC and the analog world. Communications between the MSP unit and the PLC is through a patented protocol that provides truly "open" architecture for analog signals to be processed digitally.

The MSP is factory pre configured to support a specific analog input or output signals, depending on the model. Optionally, the MSP signal range can be reconfigured in the field using the Windows™ based configuration software model SCC-CC-A1 (sold separately).

Input Analog Signal
The analog input signal is isolated, filtered, amplified, scaled and/or linearized by the MSP micro-processor and converted to a 16-bt, binary weighted, digital word which is transmitted serially (one bit at a time) at 24VDC signal levels to the PLC’s discrete I/O port. At the PLC, each binary-weighted bit sent to the discrete input is temporarily stored until all 16 bits have been received. The digital word is then reassembled and its value (proportional to the analog signal) is placed in a working register of choice for decision making by the PLC program.

Output Analog Signal
The numerical value representing a desired analog output signal is placed into a PLC working register of choice. This value is transmitted serially (one bit at a time)at 24VDC signal levels to the MSP through the PLC ’s discrete I/O port. The MSP scales, linearized and proportionally converts the digital signal to the voltage or current output signal. The signal is then sent to the isolated output channel for use by a analog actuator connected at the output channel.  Dimensional Information
