Powered entirely by the connected computer’s USB port, it eliminates the need for external power supplies, simplifying installation.
The 1747-UIC features switch-selectable DH-485 ports, an RJ-45 Ethernet port, and an RS-232 DB9 port for versatile connectivity.
It provides 500V DC circuit isolation between the power supply and DH-485 common, protecting sensitive equipment from electrical interference.
With a USB transfer speed of 12 Mbps and a converter baud rate of 19.2 Kbps, it ensures fast, stable data transmission.
Its compact design and wide operating temperature range make it suitable for use in various industrial environments.
The 1747-UIC includes a USB port (12 Mbps transfer speed) for connection to a computer.
It features two switch-selectable DH-485 ports for seamless integration with DH-485-equipped devices.
An RJ-45 (Ethernet) port enables direct connection to SLC 500 (5/01, 5/02, 5/03), AIC, and PanelView terminals.
A single RS-232 DB9 port provides additional serial communication flexibility.
The standard communication rate is 19200 bits/second (19.2 Kbps) for reliable data transfer.
Supported protocols and connectivity include compatibility with SLC 500, MicroLogix, ControlLogix, and PanelView devices.
The 1747-UIC is powered directly by the connected computer’s USB port, no external power required.
USB port power consumption is less than 100 mA, ensuring compatibility with standard USB ports.
Backplane current ratings: 600 milliamps at 5 Volts DC and 90 milliamps at 24 Volts DC.
It provides 500V DC circuit isolation between the power supply and DH-485 common for enhanced protection.
The 1747-UIC has a net weight of 1 pound (0.45 kilograms), making it lightweight and portable.
Dimensions: 109mm x 50.6mm x 31mm (4.29in x 1.99in x 1.22in) for compact placement.
Operating temperature range: 0–60°C (32–140°F), suitable for standard industrial environments.
It supports installation in chassis with up to 30 module slots, ensuring compatibility with SLC 500 chassis setups.
Backup memory is stored on Flash, ensuring retention of configuration settings and data.
The converter is designed for easy plug-and-play operation, reducing setup time.
Its rugged construction ensures durability in industrial control environments.
Connect the 1747-UIC to a computer’s USB port using a standard USB cable (not included).
Use the switch-selectable DH-485 ports to connect to DH-485-equipped controllers or terminals.
Attach the RJ-45 Ethernet cable to the SLC 500 (5/01, 5/02, 5/03), AIC, or PanelView terminal.
For RS-232 communication, connect devices to the DB9 RS-232 port using a compatible cable.
Verify that the computer’s USB port provides sufficient power (≤100 mA) for the converter.
Ensure the operating temperature remains within 0–60°C to maintain optimal performance.
Install the required drivers (if applicable) to enable communication between the computer and the 1747-UIC.
Test the connection to confirm stable data transmission between the computer and connected industrial devices.
