FAQ

1. Does the AAI135-H00/K4A00 support redundant configurations?
   Yes, it supports redundant input channels when paired with appropriate I/O bases and configurations in CENTUM VP.

2. Can I use voltage signals directly with this module?
   No, the AAI135-H00/K4A00 is primarily designed for current (4–20 mA) input; using voltage inputs requires signal conversion.

3. What is the input impedance of the analog channels?
   The input impedance is typically 250 Ω per channel to accommodate standard 4–20 mA loops.

4. Is HART communication enabled on all channels?
   Yes, HART is supported on all 16 channels, provided proper wiring and settings are configured in the system.

5. How does the module handle open-circuit detection?
   The module includes diagnostics to detect wire breaks or disconnections in 4–20 mA loops and generates system alarms.

6. What is the update rate for each channel?
   The standard input scan time is around 100 ms per channel, which can vary depending on system load.

7. Is channel-to-channel isolation provided?
   Yes, the module provides galvanic isolation between individual channels to reduce signal interference.

8. Can this module be used in SIL-rated safety applications?
   Yes, when used within the Yokogawa ProSafe-RS system, it is suitable for SIL2/SIL3 applications depending on configuration.

9. Are there limitations to mixing HART and non-HART devices?
   No, the module can communicate with both HART-enabled and conventional 4–20 mA devices simultaneously.

10. Is configuration required before commissioning?
    Yes, the module must be configured using Yokogawa’s system software (such as PRM or SENG) before becoming operational.
