Product Introduction

The 1763-NC01 cable is an essential accessory for the MicroLogix 1100 programmable logic controller system. Allen‑Bradley designed this cable specifically to enable seamless communication between the controller's Channel 0 and an RS-485 network. Its compact 30‑centimeter length makes it perfect for tight control cabinet installations. This cable is also a reliable choice for various automation tasks, from simple data logging to complex factory networking.

Technical Specifications

The 1763-NC01 features a Mini-DIN 8‑pin connector on one end and a 6‑pin terminal block on the other. This design ensures a secure and stable physical connection. The cable supports the RS-485 interface, which is a standard for robust, noise-immune serial communication in industrial settings. Moreover, it is fully compatible with all MicroLogix 1100 systems.

Furthermore, this cable excels in supporting a wide range of communication protocols. Its versatility is a key advantage in mixed-vendor environments. Specifically, the 1763-NC01 supports:

  • DH-485 Communication: For efficient networking with other Allen‑Bradley devices.

  • Modbus RTU Master and Slave: Allowing integration with a vast number of third-party instruments.

  • DF1 Half-Duplex Master and Slave: Providing flexible point-to-point or multi-drop network architectures.

Additionally, the cable is approved for Class I Division 2 hazardous locations. This certification confirms its reliability in environments where flammable gases or vapors may be present under abnormal conditions. Therefore, the 1763-NC01 is a dependable component for the oil and gas, chemical, and mining industries.

Mechanical and Environmental Parameters

The cable's 30‑centimeter length (approx. 11.8 inches) facilitates short, direct connections without excess slack. This prevents clutter within enclosures. The connectors are designed for durability, ensuring a firm connection that withstands vibration. The cable's insulation and jacketing are suitable for a standard industrial temperature range, from 0°C to 60°C. Meanwhile, its compact and robust construction ensures a long service life in typical factory floor conditions.

Installation Guidelines

Installing the 1763-NC01 is a straightforward process for any technician. First, connect the 8‑pin Mini-DIN connector to Channel 0 of the MicroLogix 1100 controller. Next, wire the bare leads of the 6‑pin terminal block to your RS-485 network's A, B, and Common terminals. Finally, ensure all connections are tight and correctly polarized. Always power down the controller before making or breaking connections to prevent damage. For optimal network performance, use a shielded, twisted-pair cable for the RS-485 network and connect the shield to a proper earth ground.
