Specifications
This 1792 ArmorBlock I/O block module
contains I/O circuits, a built-in power supply, and a built-in DeviceNet
I/O adapter. Because of its sealed housing, this 1792 I/O block requires
no enclosure. It is compatible with PLC or SLC programmable
controllers using DeviceNet scanners. The I/O values are accessible
from the PLC or SLC programmable controller data table.
This ArmorBlock module has no switches to set. You set module
parameters using the DeviceNet Manager Software (cat. no.
1787-MGR) or similar configuration tool.
