Using this Manual
This manual shows you how to use your Temperature Control Module (cat.
no. 1771-TCM) with an Allen-Bradley programmable controller and
Pro-Set

700 software for barrel temperature control applications. It
helps you install, program, calibrate, and troubleshoot your module.
You must be able to program and operate an Allen-Bradley programmable
controller to make efficient use of your barrel temperature control module.
In particular, you must know how to program block-transfer instructions.
If you do not, refer to the appropriate PLC

programming manual before
you attempt to generate a program for this module.
System compatibility involves data table use as well as compatibility with
I/O chassis, remote termination panels, and processors.
Data Table Use
Communication between the module and the processor is bi-directional.
The processor single-transfers output data through the output image table
to the module and single-transfers input data from the module through the
input image table. The module also requires an area in the data table to
store the block-transfer read and write data. 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.

B = Compatible with 1771ĆA1B, A2B, A3B, A3B1, A4B, 1771ĆAM1, ĆAM2 chassis.
Yes = Compatible without restriction
R = Restricted compatibility; it cannot be in the same even/odd pair of slots with a 32Ćbit module
No = Not compatible
You can place your 1771-TCM module into any I/O module slot of the
I/O chassis. However, do not put the 1771-TCM module into the same
even/odd module-slot pair as a 32-bit-density module unless you are using
1/2-slot addressing.
