OPERATING INSTRUCTIONS
FP-QUAD-5104-Axis, Quadrature Input Module
These operating instructions describe the installation, features, and
characteristics of the FP-QUAD-510. For details on configuring
and accessing the FP-QUAD-510 over a network, refer to the user
manual forthe particular FieldPoint network module you are using
with the FP-QUAD-510.
Features
The FP-QUAD-510 is a FieldPoint quadrature input module with
the following features:
• Four independent 32-bit position counters with individual
PhaseA, Phase B, and Index input terminals
• Velocity measurement capabilities
• Programmable reset on index mode
• Sinking inputs, compatible with TTL or differential devices
• Inputs protected to ±250VDC
• Hot plug and play operation
• 2,500 Vrms input-to-output isolation
• Double insulated for 250V safe working voltage
Power Requirement
The FP-QUAD-510 is powered via the local backplane bus from
the FieldPoint network module. The FP-QUAD-510 is a
high-power consumption module and requires more than the
nominal power allocated to an I/O module from the network
module. In some applications, this could limit the number of I/O
modules that you can connect to a single network module.
