Remote I/O Terminal Ports
The Remote I/O versions of the InView communication module has a
remote I/O port and an RS-232 port. Use the remote I/O port to:
• communicate with the remote I/O scanner port on a PLC
controller.
• communicate with SLC controllers using a 1747-SN remote I/O
scanner module.
• communicate with other remote I/O scanners.
Use the RS-232 Port to:
• transfer InView communication module applications between a
computer and the InView communication module.
• connect an InView display to trigger messages.
For details on connecting to the RS-232 port, see Connect a Computer
in this chapter.

Supported Controllers
The remote I/O terminal connects to any Allen-Bradley 1771 remote
I/O link. Applicable host controllers include almost all Allen-Bradley
PLCs, computers, VME controllers, and DEC Q-Bus controllers with a
remote I/O scanner module. New PLC product releases that support
1771 remote I/O will also work with RIO InView communication
module.
When connecting an InView communication module to a controller,
refer to the user manual for your controller or scanner module for
connection diagrams and any remote I/O limitations.
