More Information

Overview Manuals Analog Channels Discrete Channels Bus Redundancy Cabinet Installation

Features:

  • Mixed analog, digital and counting channels concentrate process wiring in one AddFEM unit.
  • Two parallel PROFIBUS DP interfaces exchange channel data with the Add 7 processor.
  • Module and load supplies follow separate paths for analog and digital output circuits.
The front end converts field states into bus data before the automation processor executes control logic.

Output commands return over PROFIBUS DP and are applied through the corresponding channel circuitry.

Local LEDs and short-circuit monitoring identify channel conditions at the cabinet.

The Siemens 6DL3100-8AA AddFEM Front-End Module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).

Organizing measured values and analog commands

  • Current inputs: Six channels accept the documented current signal path.
  • Selectable inputs: Six additional channels are configured for current or voltage measurement.
  • Output words: Eight processor commands become analog field signals at the output terminals.
  • Supply path: Analog output circuitry receives its 24 V path internally from the module.

Separating status, pulse and load circuits

  • Input states: Fifteen channels return discrete field conditions to the processor.
  • Pulse counting: Three assigned inputs accept the documented counting pulse function.
  • Output assignment: Sixteen channels drive loads or can be configured for digital input use.
  • Load feed: External 24 V DC enters at X7 for the digital output circuits.

Relating the two DP links to Add 7 control

  • Parallel interfaces: Both PROFIBUS DP paths connect the front end to the automation processor.
  • Data exchange: Input values travel upstream while output commands return to the module.
  • 8AA behavior: Redundancy coordination resides in the automation processor for this exact version.
  • Version boundary: The later 8AC architecture must not be assigned to the 8AA article.

Mounting and supervising the open equipment

  • Housing: The stainless-steel assembly protects the internal channel electronics.
  • Mounting choices: The unit fastens to the documented rail or wall arrangement.
  • Open equipment: A suitable cabinet provides the required environmental protection.
  • Local checks: LEDs and short-circuit monitoring support channel-level inspection before bus diagnosis.
Description
Siemens 6DL3100-8AA is an AddFEM front-end module for the Add 7 automation system, where it gathers analog, digital and counting signals before exchanging process data with the automation processor through two parallel PROFIBUS DP interfaces.

The twelve analog inputs of 6DL3100-8AA separate into six current-only channels and six channels configurable for current or voltage. Eight analog outputs receive their commanded values from the processor and use the module's internal 24 V path to drive the corresponding field circuits.

For discrete processing, 6DL3100-8AA accepts fifteen digital inputs, including three counting pulse paths, and provides sixteen output channels that can also be assigned as inputs. The digital output load voltage enters separately at connector X7, keeping field-load power distinct from module supply.

Both PROFIBUS DP connections on 6DL3100-8AA carry the front-end exchange toward the automation processor. Unlike the integrated redundant behavior of the later 8AC design, redundancy for this 8AA version is coordinated by the automation processor.

Short-circuit monitoring and local LEDs let 6DL3100-8AA expose output and module conditions before they are evaluated over the bus. Its stainless-steel open-equipment housing attaches to a rail or wall and must operate inside the required cabinet enclosure.

Technical notes
Siemens 6DL3100-8AA routes mixed process I/O through two parallel PROFIBUS DP links; the automation processor coordinates redundancy for this exact module version.

FAQS

The following is a list of questions commonly asked by our customers. Please contact us if you have a question about our process that is not answered below.
A voltage transmitter was assigned to 6DL3100-8AA but no valid value appears; which channel distinction matters?
Six analog inputs on 6DL3100-8AA accept current only, while the other six can be configured for current or voltage. Verify the terminal assignment before changing the Add 7 program.
Digital output LEDs change on 6DL3100-8AA but the field loads remain off; which supply path should be verified?
Check for the external 24 V DC load supply at connector X7 of 6DL3100-8AA. That feed is separate from the module supply and the internal analog-output supply path.
Where should a pulse signal be landed when the 6DL3100-8AA counter does not advance?
Use one of the three digital inputs assigned to the counting function on 6DL3100-8AA, then verify the pulse wiring and channel assignment. The remaining digital inputs are not equivalent counter paths.
Why should an 8AC redundancy assumption not be applied to 6DL3100-8AA?
Redundancy for 6DL3100-8AA is coordinated by the automation processor across its two PROFIBUS DP paths. The later integrated 8AC behavior belongs to a different module version.
A short-circuit indication appears on one 6DL3100-8AA output; what evidence should be compared before changing configuration?
Compare the affected 6DL3100-8AA channel LED with its field wiring, external load supply and bus diagnostic state. This keeps a channel-circuit fault separate from a processor or DP configuration issue.
