Control Networks
This appendix provides a brief introduction about control networks. For more
information on using control networks, see the following publications.
The Allen-Bradley Remote I/O Network is a master/slave control network
that enables chassis of I/O, operator interface terminals, push-button panels,
I/O blocks, message displays, and drives to be great distances from the host
PLC processor. The SLC 500 fixed, SLC 5/01, SLC 5/02, SLC 5/03, SLC
5/04, or SLC 5/05 processors can interface to this network through the
1747-DCM module for distributed control. The DCM lets the SLC 500
processor look like another slave device on the network.
Allen-Bradley Remote I/O
Network
Below is an example of the Allen-Bradley Remote I/O Network.
With an SLC 5/02, SLC 5/03, SLC 5/04, or SLC 5/05 processor, a 1747-SN
Remote I/O Scanner can be used as the master of a remote I/O network.
