Product Description P/N: 1734-ARM

Description / Specifications

Description

The Allen-Bradley 1734-ARM is a POINT I/O address reserve module designed to hold I/O slot positions when a physical module is not installed. By reserving module addresses within a POINT I/O assembly, it simplifies commissioning, reduces reconfiguration needs, and maintains system continuity. This compact, non-communicating module helps preserve project structure during maintenance, phased upgrades, or staged system expansions.

Information About 1734-ARM

The 1734-ARM is part of the Allen-Bradley POINT I/O family, functioning specifically as an address reserve module for preserving slot assignments and I/O addressing in distributed control architectures. It occupies a standard POINT I/O slot and ensures that configuration files, controller tags, and addressing structures remain intact even when a functional I/O module has been removed or is pending installation. This capability is especially beneficial in staged installations, spares management, or when replacing modules without altering the system's logical structure.

The 1734-ARM installs onto any POINT I/O terminal base without a dedicated keying position, allowing flexible placement within an I/O bank. Although it does not exchange I/O data, it maintains the expected module presence for controllers and engineering tools. Its low POINTBus current requirement and minimal power consumption make it efficient for maintaining address integrity without unnecessary loading on the I/O backplane.

This module includes basic module and network status indicators for integration consistency, while its robust operating temperature and humidity ratings support use in industrial environments. As a passive placeholder module, the 1734-ARM ensures that system design, addressing sequences, and automation project structure remain stable and predictable.

Key Features

  • Address Reservation Function: Maintains slot addressing when I/O modules are absent or awaiting installation.
  • Flexible Slot Placement: Can be installed in any POINT I/O slot without keying restrictions.
  • Non-Communicating Module: Does not exchange I/O data, preserving controller configuration.
  • Low Power Requirements: Draws only 75 mA of POINTBus current for efficient operation.
  • Supports System Continuity: Prevents address reshuffling during maintenance or expansion.
  • Easy DIN-Rail Integration: Mounts using standard 1734-TB or 1734-TBS terminal bases.
  • Status Indicators: Includes module and network LEDs for quick visual diagnostics.
  • Industrial Operating Range: Rated for –20 to 55°C and up to 95% non-condensing humidity.

The 1734-ARM delivers the reliability and precision required for address preservation in modular POINT I/O systems.

 

Frequently Asked Questions about 1734-ARM
Question: What is the primary purpose of the 1734-ARM module?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The 1734-ARM is an Address Reserve Module designed to maintain slot continuity in a POINT I/O system by reserving I/O addresses for future module installation. It allows engineers to predefine module layouts and replace or add modules later without reconfiguring the network. This simplifies system scaling and reduces downtime during maintenance or upgrades. The ARM module does not perform I/O functions but helps maintain logical structure. It is particularly useful in staged or phased deployments.

Question: Does the 1734-ARM module communicate with I/O data?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

No, the 1734-ARM does not handle any I/O data because it is not a signal-processing module. Its role is purely organizational—it reserves address space without generating or consuming signals. This makes it transparent in control logic but critical for address planning. It appears in the system tree but does not require parameterization. Its function is passive yet essential in design integrity.

Question: With which wiring bases is the 1734-ARM compatible?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

The 1734-ARM must be mounted on a compatible base such as 1734-TB or 1734-TBS wiring assemblies. These bases provide the mechanical and electrical interface to the POINTBus. The module can be inserted at any key position, as it doesn't enforce keying. Correct base installation ensures proper address reservation. Its base mounting allows fast and secure deployment.

Question: Can the 1734-ARM module be used for system flexibility and cost saving?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, it allows users to reserve space for future modules without reprogramming or rewiring, which reduces engineering costs and downtime. This makes it ideal for scalable systems or phased deployments. It provides a placeholder for modules not yet installed. Maintenance and upgrades are easier thanks to consistent addressing. The result is a flexible, future-ready system design.

Question: Is the 1734-ARM module still being manufactured?
Date Update:06/06/2025
Answer:

Yes, the 1734-ARM is actively manufactured and supported as part of Allen-Bradley's POINT I/O system. It remains available through official Rockwell Automation distributors. The module is included in modern distributed I/O architectures and Studio 5000 environments. Continued production ensures long-term use in new or existing systems. It remains relevant for both digital and analog expansions.
