Every time you press the Enter key, the next screen appears. The different screens are described in the
following sub-sections. Programming the Analog Expander allows you to set the polling time of the module,
channel options and the configuration of the differential settings if they are used.
When programming module some options are processed at the module, for these options to operate correctly a
network reload or update must be performed and the analog expander must be registered and online.
Updating modules can be accessed by selecting [MENU, 4, 8, 1, 3], reload and restart the module by pressing

Advanced Menu section (see page 207).
Selecting an Analog Expander to Modify
Each analog expander is assigned a unique address from 001 to 250. Configuring the address of the Analog
Expander Module (PRT-ADC4 or PRT-DAC4) is covered in the installation instructions included with your
PRT-ADC4 Analog Input Expander or PRT-DAC4 Analog Output Expander Module.

Type the appropriate 3-digit Analog Expander address or use the [] and [] keys. When the desired address
appears on the screen, press [ENTER] to program the selected Analog Expander module. The maximum
number of Analog Expanders that can be programmed is limited by your system's memory and configured
profile.
Displaying Selected Analog Expander Information
It is possible to show the current Analog Expander registration and information details (module type PRT-ADC4
or PRT-DAC4, registration, online and version information) from the Analog Expander selection display.
