Description
The Siemens SIMATIC S7-1200 SM 1231 AI 8×13 bit provides 8 differential analog inputs for standard voltage and current signals. Voltage inputs support ±10 V, ±5 V, and ±2.5 V, while current inputs support 0–20 mA and 4–20 mA. Siemens specifies 12-bit resolution plus sign, corresponding to a 13-bit ADC, with input resistance of ≥9 MΩ for voltage signals and 280 Ω for current signals. The module has a maximum cycle time of 625 µs for all channels, allowing responsive analog signal monitoring in S7-1200 control systems.
The module uses an integrating measurement principle and supports selectable signal ranges, configurable measurement parameters, and diagnostic monitoring. It is designed for use with the SIMATIC S7-1200 system and includes a required front connector for field wiring. Its compact design makes it suitable for expanding analog input capacity where multiple voltage and current signals need to be monitored from one module.
