The IF4U module is not compatible with the 1734-ADN, ADN(X), and
PDN device net adapters, and the 1734-APB PROFIBUS adapter.
The 1734sc-IF4U is not field upgradable.
The ControlNet adapter (1734-ACNR) has a maximum data transmit limit
of 600 bytes. Therefore, the maximum number of 1734sc-IF4U modules
that can be installed behind a ControlNet adapter is 14. The maximum
number of modules that can be installed behind an EtherNet adapter
(1734-AENT) is 19.
The generic point IO module profile can be used to represent the IF4U module
within RSLogix 5000. The generic profile should be used for RSLogix 5000
versions 14 and older. Before the generic profile can be added to the IO
configuration, the proper communication module needs to be added to the IO
configuration first. To add a communication module to RSLogix 5000:
1. Add the new local communication module to your project.
2. Configure the local module, including:
a. Naming the module.
b. Choosing a Communication Format.
c. Setting the Revision level.
d. Setting the module location as necessary such as the slot number
for a 1756-CNB module.
e. Choosing an Electronic Keying method.
3. Add the new remote module to your project, such as a 1734 Control Net
adapter or Ethernet Adapter (that is, 1734-ACNR or 1734-AENT,
respectively).
4. Configure the remote module similarly to the local module.
5. Download the configuration to the controller.
If you are using Control Net, you must schedule the network using
RSNetworks for Control Net after adding the local and remote
communication modules.
