The Allen-Bradley 1761-L32BWB MicroLogix 1000 Controller Processor is designed to control small scale applications or equipment, including standalone machines. The controller includes an integrated power supply, I/O channels, memory, and communication ports, and can be used to connect to a DH485 network by interfacing the port with a 1761-NET-AIC. The communication port is designed for uploading, downloading, online editing, testing, and commissioning of a PLC unit.
The processor can also communicate with HMIs, SCADA, or other computer-based control systems. It can be vertically or horizontally mounted on a DIN rail or via the optional mounting screws, and requires 2in of clearance on all sides, regardless of orientation.
