1747-UIC Universal Serial Bus to DH-485 Interface Converter
This device allows a computer with a USB port to interface to DH-485 ports on an SLC
500, MicroLogix, or other Rockwell Automation controllers and on PanelView
terminals. The 1747-UIC features a USB connector as well as both an RS-232 and an
RS-485 port. Use the RS-232 port to connect to SLC 5/03, 5/04, 5/05 (Channel 0),
MicroLogix, CompactLogix, FlexLogix, ControlLogix, PanelView 300 or higher, or
AIC+. Use the RS-485 Port to connect to SLC 5/01, 5/02, 5/03 (Channel 1),
PanelView 300 or higher, or 1747-AIC.
Universal Remote I/O (RIO)
Network
The strength and versatility of the Universal Remote I/O network comes from the
breadth of products it supports. In addition to 1746 I/O, the Universal Remote I/O
network supports many Allen-Bradley and third-party devices.
Typical applications range from simple I/O links with controllers and I/O, to links with a
wide variety of other types of devices. You connect devices through remote I/O adapter
modules or built-in remote I/O adapters. Using the Universal RIO Network instead of
direct-wiring a device over a long distance to a local I/O chassis reduces installation,
start-up, and maintenance costs by placing the I/O closer to the sensors and actuators.
SLC 5/03, 5/04, and 5/05 processors support pass-thru which lets you configure RIO
devices remotely from an Ethernet, DH+, or DH-485/DF1 network, as well as block
transfer instructions for faster reading and writing of I/O data.
Universal Remote I/O Connectivity for SLC 500 is provided by the following interfaces:
