Important: Only Series C or later MicroLogix 1000 discrete controllers and
all MicroLogix 1000 analog controllers support DH-485
network connections.
You can connect an unpowered AIC+, catalog number 1761-NET-AIC, to the
network without disrupting network activity. In addition, if a MicroLogix
1000 controller powers an AIC+ that is connected to the network, network
activity will not be disrupted should the MicroLogix 1000 controller be
removed from the AIC+.
The figure below shows the external wiring connections and specifications of
the AIC+.
