Mount the module in HIMA safety system rack. Use X-CB 014 53 connector board for wiring. Connect system cable X-CA 011 to field termination assemblies. Strip wires to 6 mm length for terminals. Tighten screws to 0.2 to 0.25 Nm torque. Do not exceed 600 Ω ohmic load per output. Apply 24 VDC SELV or PELV power only. Verify supply voltage stays within 20.4 to 28.8 VDC. Check all connections before applying power. Maintenance Tips Check output signals annually for accuracy. Verify supply voltage and ripple are within limits. Inspect terminal connections for tightness. Keep module free from dust and moisture. Monitor ambient temperature stays below 60°C. Replace module if accuracy exceeds 0.5% at operating temperature. Diagnostic Capabilities SILworX software shows 10,000-digit resolution. Monitor output current for each channel. Check shutdown time (16 ms) during fault testing. Use HART communication for device diagnostics (accuracy ±2%). System detects open circuit and short circuit conditions. LED indicators show module and channel status.
