ADAM 4000 Series
3-4
Single Module,
Multiple Input Types
and Ranges
The ADAM-4011/4011D Analog Input
Modules can be remotely configured for
14 different combinations of input types
and ranges (T/C, mA, V, mV). You save
on spare parts since you only have to
stock one model.
Analog Input Modules
Analog input modules use
microprocessor-controlled
high-resolution 16-bit sigma-delta
A/D converters to acquire sensor signals
such as voltage, current, thermocouple
or RTD. They translate analog data into
one of the following formats:
engineering units, % of FSR, two’s
complement or ohms. After the modules
receive a request from the host, they
send the data in the desired format over
the RS-485 network.
ADAM analog input modules protect
your equipment from ground loops by
providing 3000 V
DC
isolation.
All analog input modules, except for the
ADAM-4013, feature digital inputs and
outputs which may also be used for
alarm and event counting.
Digital Input/Output
The analog input module’s two digital
output channels are open-collector
transistor switches that you can control
from the host computer. By switching
solid state relays, the output channels
can control heaters, pumps and other
power equipment. The module can use
its digital input channel to sense the
state of a remote digital signal.
Programmable Alarm Output
Analog input modules include high and
low alarm signalling with remotely
configurable limit values. After every
A/D conversion, the digital value is
compared with the high and low limit.
The module can change the state of a
digital output depending on the result of
this comparison. This lets it perform
On/Off control of a device independent
of the host PC.
Event Counter
The on-board event counter can count
up to 65,535 transitions occurring on
the digital input. The counter can be
read and cleared by the host computer.
The counter can be used in production
line applications to keep a record of
repetitive operations.
Eight-channel
Analog Input Modules
The ADAM-4017/4018 are 16-bit,
8-channel analog input modules that
provide programmable input ranges on
all channels. These modules are an
extremely cost-effective solution for
industrial measurement and monitoring
applications. 3000 V
DC
optical isolation
between the analog input and the
modules protects the modules and
peripherals from damage due to high
input-line voltages.

ADAM
Analog Input Modules
with LED Display
The 4½ -digit LED display on the back of
the ADAM-4011D/4014D lets you
monitor process readings right at their
source. The modules display readings in
a wide variety of data formats as well as
high-low alarm messages. The
ADAM-4011D/4014D offers flexibility,
ease of installation and direct availability
of process data. These modules are the
ideal choice for critical process
monitoring.
Eight-channel Analog
Input Data Logger
The ADAM-4018M features six
differential and two single-ended
channels. Its 128 KB of Flash memory
can accommodate up to about 38,000
data samples and will write until the
memory is exhausted. Featuring a
remotely configurable sampling interval
of 2 seconds to 18 hours, the
ADAM-4018M is the perfect link between
industrial processes and your PC,
enabling remote process monitoring
from virtually any kind of computer.
