You can install your input module in any system that uses
Allen-Bradley programmable controllers with block transfer
capability and the 1771 I/O structure.
Contact your nearest Allen-Bradley office for more information
about your programmable controllers.
This module can be used with any 1771 I/O chassis. Communication
between the module and the processor is bidirectional. The PLC
sends module information using block transfer write instructions and
the 1771 I/O backplane. The PLC receives module status information
through block transfer read instruction and places it in the data table.
I/O image table use is an important factor in module placement and
addressing selection. The module’s data table use is listed in the
following table.
