Schneider Electric BMXAMO0410 Modicon X80 Analog Output Module

Configured for isolated analog signal output in the Modicon X80 platform, the Schneider Electric BMXAMO0410 (BMXAMO0410 Analog Output Module) provides four electrically isolated channels for 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, or +/-10 V output. The module communicates with the PLC through the rack backplane and uses a 20-way connector for field wiring.

Hardware Specifications

Analog Output Isolation and Signal Characteristics

The BMXAMO0410 provides four isolated high-level analog outputs. Each channel can be configured for current or voltage output according to the supported signal ranges. The specified isolation voltage is 1400 V DC between channels and ground and between channels and the bus.

The module provides 80 dB minimum crosstalk attenuation and 100 dB common mode rejection. Open-circuit detection is provided for 0-20 mA and 4-20 mA outputs, while short-circuit detection is specified for +/-10 V outputs. Fallback operation can be configured or predefined.

Frequently Asked Questions

Q: What output signals does the BMXAMO0410 support?
A: It supports 0-20 mA, 4-20 mA, and +/-10 V analog outputs across four channels.

Q: How is the module powered?
A: The module receives its internal power through the Modicon X80 rack backplane.

Q: Can the BMXAMO0410 be installed on both M340 and M580 systems?
A: Yes. The supplied data specifies compatibility with Modicon M340 and Modicon M580 PLCs for local or remote I/O configurations.

Field Installation Guidelines

Install the BMXAMO0410 on the specified Modicon X80 rack and secure the module with the two required mounting screws. Use the appropriate 20-way removable terminal block for field wiring.

Route analog signal conductors separately from high-current power wiring and switching conductors where practical. Maintain appropriate shielding and grounding practices for the connected analog circuits. Verify the selected current or voltage mode and the corresponding load impedance before energizing the field circuit.

Confirm rack power availability and module seating before commissioning. Check the RUN, ERR, I/O, and channel diagnostic LEDs after startup. For remote I/O installations, verify the communication path and rack configuration before applying output commands.
