1-6 Module and Development Software Overview
Typical Configurations The typical configuration of the SLC system that incorporates your
BASIC or BASIC-T module depends on whether the module is:
• integrated with a SLC 500 fixed or modular controller.
• programmed directly with an ASCII terminal or programmed
using a personal computer with the BASIC development
software, 1747-PBASE.
• communicating with a DH485 network or with an external
source through a modem using DF1 protocol.
Module Integration
The module is a single-slot module that is inserted into a slot in the
expansion chassis of your SLC 500 fixed controller or an open slot in
the 1746 I/O chassis of your SLC 500 modular controller. The module
may be inserted in any slot of the 1746 I/O chassis except the first slot
of the first chassis, which is reserved for the SLC modular processor.
Typical SLC fixed and modular configurations are shown in the
following figures.
