Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface, Series C

Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface, Series C

The Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC is a Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface module. It is designed to provide RS-485 and RS-422 communication capabilities for ASCII devices in an industrial control system. Here's some information about this module:

1. Manufacturer: Allen-Bradley (a brand of Rockwell Automation)
2. Model: 1734-485ASC
3. Module Type: RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface
4. Communication Protocol: The module supports the RS-485 and RS-422 communication protocols, which are standard protocols used for serial communication between devices.
5. ASCII Interface: The 1734-485ASC module is specifically designed for ASCII devices. It allows the Point I/O system to communicate with devices that use the ASCII protocol, such as barcode readers, scales, and other ASCII-based equipment.
6. Compatibility: The module is part of the Allen-Bradley Point I/O system, which is a distributed I/O solution. It can be used with other Point I/O modules and connected to a compatible Allen-Bradley programmable logic controller (PLC) or other control devices.
7. Configuration: The module can be configured using the Allen-Bradley RSLogix 5000 software, which is the programming environment for Allen-Bradley PLCs. You can set up the module's parameters, such as baud rate, parity, and data format, to match the requirements of the connected ASCII devices.
8. Data Exchange: The 1734-485ASC module enables data exchange between the Point I/O system and ASCII devices. It can send and receive data in ASCII format, allowing for seamless integration of ASCII-based equipment into the industrial control system.
9. RS-485/RS-422 Interface: The module provides RS-485 and RS-422 communication interfaces, which are commonly used for longer-distance serial communication and in industrial environments that require noise immunity and multi-drop communication.

The Allen-Bradley 1734-485ASC Point I/O RS-485/RS-422 ASCII Interface module offers a convenient solution for integrating RS-485 and RS-422 ASCII devices into an industrial control system. By using this module, you can easily communicate with and control ASCII-based equipment, such as barcode readers or scales, from your Allen-Bradley PLC or other control devices.
