Install Your Adapter

Chapter Objectives

This chapter describes the procedures for installing your adapter,

including how to:

• determine power requirements

• set the network address switches

• install the ControlNet adapter

• wire the ControlNet adapter

• connect programming terminals to the network via the NAP

• install the I/O modules

• install a replacement adapter to an existing system

Determine Power

Requirements

The 1734-ACNR adapter requires a typical 24V dc power supply with a

maximum of 10.2 watts of power @ 28.8 volts. It provides 5 watts @ 5

volts for the POINTBus and dissipates 5 watts @ 28.8 volts.

The ControlNet adapter provides a maximum backplane output

current of 1.0A. See the Specifications section of this manual for:

• backplane current consumption for each POINT I/O catalog

number

• current consumption for each of the POINT I/O modules

connected to the 1734 adapter

Extend backplane current beyond 1.0A with a 1734-EP24DC

Backplane Extension Power Supply.

• Use a 1734-EP24DC power supply to supply up to an additional

1.3A of backplane current.

• Use multiple 1734-EP24DC power supplies to reach the

maximum limit of 63 base modules if 25 or fewer of these

modules are analog.
