Introduction
There are now a variety of 1700 Series Intelligent Resolver Interface Modules for Allen-
Bradley 1771 I/O to fit your application. These modules accept one, two, three, or four resolver
inputs and convert the resolvers analog signals into digital position and tachometer data that is
transmitted to the processor over the backplane. The series are broken down into the 1730
modules that are 10-bit, single turn, resolver interface modules; the 1740 modules that are 13-
bit, single turn, resolver interface modules; and the 1760 modules that are multi-turn resolver
interface modules which offer 12-bit resolution per turn.
This manual explains the operation, installation, programming, and servicing of the 1761H
module. The factory can send you, upon request, manuals for the other modules in this series.
It is strongly recommended that you read the following instructions. Please call the factory
if there are any unanswered questions after reading this manual. An applications engineer will

Revision Record
The following is the revision history for this manual. In addition to the information listed
here, revisions will fix any known typographical errors and clarification notes may be added.
This manual, 940-57061, is the first release of the electronic manual and corresponds to the
printed manual 940-07061. The table of contents is removed from this file and incorporated as
bookmarks in the PDF file. This revision incorporates the latest transducer drawing for the
HTT-20-(x) and the HTT-400-180. The manual corresponds to software revision 1, checksum
DCCA for the 1761H. The software can only be used on revision H and higher of the main PC
board. The software adds backplane programmability, Autotech compatibility, to the module
and incorporates several features into the 1761H that were only available as options before.
These new features are described in chapter 1: 1761H Introduction.
