Features

The 1769-SM1 Compact I/O to DPI/SCANport module features the
following:
• The module can be used as expansion I/O on MicroLogix 1500 and
CompactLogix controllers or with a remote 1769-based adapter. It
receives the required power from the Compact I/O backplane.
• The module automatically detects the DPI or SCANport Host
connected to a channel, and autobauds to the Host's data rate.
• A number of configuration tools can be used to configure the module
and connected drive. For DPI products, the tools include the
PowerFlex HIM on the drive, network software such as RSNetWorx
for DeviceNet, or drive-configuration software such as
DriveExplorer (version 3.01 or higher) or DriveExecutive (version
1.01 or higher). For SCANport products, the tool is the controller
configuration software.
• I/O messaging, including Logic Command/Reference and up to four
bi-directional pairs of Datalinks (parameter read/write) for each
module channel, may be configured for your application using a
module parameter.
• The following table shows the various controllers that can be used
with the 1769-SM1 and whether they can support explicit messaging
(parameter read/write, etc.):

• User-defined fault actions determine how the module and connected
drives respond when the controller is in idle mode.
• Bi-color (red/green) status indicators report the status of the module
and channel communications.
