Compatible Processor: This upgrade kit is specifically designed for the SLC 5/04 processor architecture. It is not compatible with SLC 5/03 or SLC 5/05 processors.
Indirect Addressing: The 1747-OS401 supports indirect addressing for both word-level and bit-level references. This feature provides greater flexibility in handling data and allows for more efficient programming of repetitive or complex logic.
Advanced Mathematical Instructions: This firmware adds support for essential mathematical functions, including ATN (arctangent), cosine, sine, tangent, and natural logarithmic calculations. These functions are vital for executing complex calculations in process control, motion control, and analytical applications.
Data Manipulation Instructions: The upgrade includes support for SCP (Scale with Parameters), ABS (Absolute Value), SWP (Swap), ASN (Arc Sine), and ACS (Arc Cosine) instructions. This comprehensive set enables users to perform a multitude of data manipulation and control tasks efficiently.
Proper installation ensures a successful firmware upgrade and prevents potential issues. Follow these instructions carefully.
Pre-Installation: First, save the current user program to a memory module or a programming terminal. The existing program will be erased during the upgrade process.
Installation Procedure: Remove the SLC 5/04 processor from its chassis. Carefully install the 1747-OS401 upgrade chip onto the processor board. Reinsert the processor and apply power.
Verification: After the upgrade, verify the new firmware version using your programming software. The enhanced instruction set should now be available for use in your ladder logic programs.
Your order includes the firmware upgrade chip and necessary documentation. All items are packaged securely to prevent electrostatic discharge damage.
