Product Q&A
- Q: Can the AI581-S be used with standard non-safety AC500 CPUs?
- A: It requires a functional AC500-S Safety CPU to process the safety-related signals, though it can reside on the same I/O bus as standard modules.
- Q: Does this module support 0…10V voltage inputs?
- A: No, the 1SAP282000R0001 is specifically designed for current loops (0/4…20 mA).
- Q: How is the safety address set for this module?
- A: The safety address is configured via the onboard rotary switches located on the side of the module housing.
