SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module 5.2 Measurement Jumpers Near each input channel is a jumper trip let used to configure the channel for the measurement type. The SDM-SW8A is shipped from the factory with each channel configured for DC Voltage pulse. An example of each configuration is illustrated in Figure 2. Table 4 shows jumper pins and the c[...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module Parameter & Da t a T y pe Enter FunctOp Constant The FunctOp is used to determine the result that will be retu rn ed by the SW8A. Numeric Code Function 0 Returns the state of the sig nal at the time the instruction is executed. A 0 is stored for low and a 1 is stored for high. 1 Returns the duty cycle of th [...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module Instruction 102 is not contai ned in all CR10 or 21X PROM S. To verify that the datalogger cont ains the Instruction, enter 102 i nto a datalogger Programming Table. If the Instruction is accepted, the PROM contains the Instruction. NOTE Repetitions (Reps, Parameter 1 ) specifies the number of SW8A channels to r[...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module 7. Datalogger Program Details 7.1 Datalogger Scan Rate The Module samples channel state every 2 ms and accum ulates the information for duty cycle and counts. Each channel has one 16 bit accumulator for duty cycle and one for counts. The accumula tors are reset when the datalogger requests information from the S[...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module forces a watchdog reset by addressing the Modul e and requesting sufficient information t o cause a minim um of 65 clock li ne transitions. Advantages to the trapping routine are: • The bombed processor is detect ed before erroneous values (-99999) are included in subsequent processing. • T he processor may [...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module 8.2 SPST Switch Closure Single-pole single-throw swit ches are either open (high state) or connected t o ground (low state). Typical SPST switc hes include contact closure (reed switch) anemom eters, tipping bucket rain gauges, and open collectors (semiconductor switches). Many contro l devices utilize open coll[...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module 50% Duty Cycle - The "worst case" duty cycle m easurement error for a 50% duty cycle at a given i nput frequency is ± ERROR = Hz * 0.4 where ERROR = Actual Duty Cycle ± Measured Duty Cycle. For example, a 50% duty cy cle at 10 Hz could be measured as 46% t o 54% in the worst case. Minimum/Maximum - T[...]

SDM-SW8A Switch Closure Input Module addressed SW8A is present. The 21X works similarly, except the data from the SW8A is input to single ended analog channel 1, not C1. Depending on the Comm and, Reps, and Ch annel information, the module will shift out one or more by tes to the datalogger, again usi ng C2 as a clock driven by the datalogger. The [...]

Appendix A. Program Example The Edlog program is an exam ple only and is not meant to be used verbati m. In application, the co ncepts illustrated here are likely to be only fragments of a larger program. The example program reads all 8 ports of an SW8A which is set t o address 00. It is read three times per scan, once each for State, Duty Cycle, a[...]
