Addressing the 1700 as a Single Transfer Module
Once a 1731 or 1741 is configured correctly, the processor reads position and tachometer
data with single transfers. To use this data, you must know the memory locations in the input
image table associated with the module.

Addressing Examples
The following are examples of module addressing for 2-slot, 1-slot and ½-slot
configurations. The PLC-5 addresses for block and single transfers are also shown.
In the following figures, the module is placed in a single slot pair.
