Scanner Module

Note: The SLC Series B Scanner Module (Catalog No. 1747-SN) will allow
Block Transfers. Series A units will allow only Discrete Bit Transfers.

To further explain Physical and Logical specifications, and to help you
properly configure your Remote I/O architecture, please refer to the
following example:

A typical valid Remote I/O configuration for PLC 5/15 would be:

(4) 1/4 racks, (2) 1/2 racks and (1) full rack
Total devices = 4 + 2 + 1 = 7 devices.
This configuration is within the physical specification of
12 for the PLC 5/15.

Note: PLC 5/15 Series B, Revision H or later have partial rack addressing.
Earlier versions were limited to full racks.

4 x 1/4 racks

= 1

logical rack

2 x 1/2 racks

=

1 logical rack

1 full rack

= 1

logical rack

= 3

logical racks

The example given is also within the

3-

rack logical limitation of the PLC

5/15.
