Product Description

The Allen-Bradley 1747-KE is a communication interface module designed for the SLC 500 series of programmable logic controllers (PLCs). This module serves as a bridge between SLC 500 controllers and devices using DH-485 or RS-232C communication protocols. It enables data exchange and communication between SLC 500 systems and other industrial devices, including computers, operator interfaces, and third-party controllers.

The 1747-KE module is particularly useful for legacy system integration, allowing older SLC 500 systems to communicate with modern networks and equipment, thus extending the life and functionality of existing automation infrastructure.

Product Specifications

Product Advantages

• Legacy System Integration: Enables communication between SLC 500 controllers and modern systems, extending the useful life of existing equipment.
• Multi-Protocol Support: Supports multiple communication protocols, including DH-485, DF1, and ASCII, offering flexibility in system design.
• Easy Configuration: Configurable through RSLogix 500 software, simplifying setup and maintenance.
• Robust Performance: Designed for reliable operation in industrial environments with wide temperature tolerance and noise immunity.
• Cost-Effective Solution: Avoids the need for complete system replacement by providing a communication upgrade path for legacy SLC 500 systems.

Precautions

• Compatibility: Ensure that the 1747-KE module is compatible with your specific SLC 500 system and firmware version.
• Configuration: Proper configuration of communication parameters (baud rate, node address, protocol) is critical for successful operation.
• Wiring: Follow correct wiring practices for DH-485 and RS-232C connections to avoid communication errors or hardware damage.
• Grounding: Ensure proper grounding to minimize electrical noise and interference.
• Firmware Updates: Periodically check for firmware updates to maintain compatibility and performance.
• Environmental Conditions: Avoid exposure to extreme temperatures, moisture, or corrosive environments beyond specified limits.

Product Applications

• Industrial Automation: Used in manufacturing plants to connect SLC 500 controllers with HMIs, SCADA systems, and other PLCs.
• Data Acquisition: Facilitates data exchange between SLC 500 systems and data logging devices or databases.
• Remote Monitoring: Enables remote access and monitoring of SLC 500 systems via RS-232C connections to computers or modems.
• System Upgrades: Allows integration of new equipment into existing SLC 500-based control systems without replacing the entire infrastructure.
• Process Control: Applied in industries such as water treatment, food processing, and material handling for reliable communication between control components.
