VERSAMAX ANALOG OUTPUT
IC200ALG32513-Bit Voltage Analog Output Module · 8 Channels The GE VersaMax IC200ALG325 provides eight single-ended analog voltage outputs. Each channel can be configured for a bipolar -10 VDC to +10 VDC range or a unipolar 0 VDC to +10 VDC range.

01 / OUTPUT STRUCTURE
Eight Independent Voltage OutputsIC200ALG325 provides eight single-ended analog voltage channels arranged as one group. The module receives eight words of analog output data from the CPU or Network Interface Unit. An external field-side supply is required for the analog output circuits. |

03 / SIGNAL PERFORMANCE
Stable Analog ScalingResolution is 1.25 mV, equivalent to 4 counts. At 25°C, accuracy is ±0.3% typical of full scale and ±0.5% maximum of full scale. From 0°C to 60°C, maximum accuracy deviation is ±1% of full scale. The specified channel-to-channel crosstalk rejection is at least 70 dB. Resistive loads should be at least 5000 ohms, while capacitive loading is limited to 1.0 µF maximum. |
04 / FIELD BEHAVIOR
Defined Output ResponseThe default output behavior is Hold Last State. A jumper can instead configure the outputs to default to 0 V when backplane power or communications are interrupted or the PLC is stopped. |

Jumper-Based Output SetupJMP1 controls the voltage range. With no jumper on the specified pins, the outputs use the bipolar -10 VDC to +10 VDC range. Installing the range jumper selects 0 VDC to +10 VDC. JMP2 controls the response after backplane power or communications are interrupted. No jumper selects Hold Last State; installing the jumper selects 0 V. |
Field Wiring ConceptShielded twisted-pair cable is recommended for analog channel connections. Shield connections should be bonded to earth ground and kept as short as practical. The module uses carrier terminals for voltage outputs, returns, field power, field return, shield termination and jumper selection. Compatible VersaMax carrier arrangements include terminal-style and compact terminal-style carriers. |
| Model | Signal Type | Channels | Key Difference |
| IC200ALG320 | Current output | 4 | 12-bit current-output architecture |
| IC200ALG321 | Voltage output | 4 | 12-bit 0 to +10 VDC voltage output |
| IC200ALG322 | Voltage output | 4 | 12-bit -10 to +10 VDC voltage output |
| IC200ALG325 | Voltage output | 8 | 13-bit; selectable bipolar or unipolar voltage range |
| IC200ALG326 | Current output | 8 | 13-bit current-output module |
| IC200ALG327 | Voltage output | 12 | 13-bit voltage output with 12 channels |
| IC200ALG328 | Current output | 12 | 13-bit current output with 12 channels |
Within the VersaMax analog output family, IC200ALG325 is specifically positioned around eight voltage outputs with 13-bit resolution and selectable bipolar/unipolar operation. IC200ALG326 uses eight current outputs, while IC200ALG327 expands the voltage architecture to twelve channels. IC200ALG320, IC200ALG321 and IC200ALG322 provide lower-channel-count alternatives with 12-bit output architectures.
| 01 |
Can IC200ALG325 be used when an existing application requires both negative and positive control voltage?
Yes. IC200ALG325 supports the bipolar -10 VDC to +10 VDC range as its default configuration. This makes it suitable for control applications where the commanded analog signal must cross through zero rather than remain entirely above zero.
|
| 02 |
What should be checked before replacing an IC200ALG325 with another VersaMax analog module?
The output signal type, channel count, resolution, voltage range and required field-side power should be checked together. IC200ALG325 is an eight-channel 13-bit voltage-output module; modules such as IC200ALG326 use current outputs, while IC200ALG327 provides twelve voltage channels, so they are not direct functional substitutes simply because they belong to the same family.
|
| 03 |
If the IC200ALG325 system must move from bipolar to 0–10 V operation, what hardware setting matters?
The range selection is controlled by the carrier jumper arrangement. No jumper on the range selection pins corresponds to -10 VDC to +10 VDC; installing the range jumper selects 0 VDC to +10 VDC. The change should be made with field power and backplane power removed.
|
| 04 |
How can an IC200ALG325 application define the output condition after communications are interrupted?
The output-default selection is controlled by the hold jumper. With no hold jumper installed, the module retains the last commanded output value if backplane power or communications are interrupted or the PLC is stopped. Installing the jumper changes the output default to 0 V.
|
| 05 |
What field-side conditions should be verified when an IC200ALG325 shows a loss-of-power condition?
The module requires an external +18 to +30 VDC field-side supply, including ripple, with maximum current consumption of 102 mA. The FLD PWR LED indicates field-side power, while the module reports Loss of User Side Power as its specified diagnostic. These checks should be separated from the OK LED, which indicates backplane power.
