Information About 1794-AENT

The 1794-AENT is part of the Flex I/O family from Allen-Bradley, developed to enable distributed I/O architectures with Ethernet/IP connectivity. This adapter supports linear topologies and is equipped with one Ethernet port, allowing real-time data exchange between Flex I/O modules and controllers such as CompactLogix, ControlLogix, SLC500, and PLC-5. It accepts an input voltage range of 19.2–31.2 VDC with a nominal rating of 24 VDC, consuming up to 7.3 W of power at 19.2 VDC. Configuration of the adapter’s IP address can be done via thumbwheel switches or a DHCP server, with the default setting at 999. Designed for DIN rail mounting, it withstands industrial conditions, including vibration (5 g at 10–500 Hz) and operating shock (30 g). With LED indicators for module, network, and link status, the 1794-AENT provides clear diagnostics and reliable performance in distributed control systems.

Key Features:

  • Ethernet Port: One RJ45 port supporting Ethernet/IP protocol at 10/100 Mbps.
  • Module Capacity: Supports installation of up to eight Flex I/O modules for distributed architectures.
  • Voltage: Operates on 19.2–31.2 VDC input with nominal 24 VDC rating.
  • Configuration: Network address set via thumbwheel switches or DHCP server.
  • Diagnostics: LED indicators for module, network, and link status.
  • Mounting: Compact DIN rail mount design for flexible installation.
  • Durability: Rated for 0–55 °C operation, 30 g shock, and 5 g vibration per IEC standards.
  • Integration: Compatible with CompactLogix, ControlLogix, PLC-5, and SLC500 controllers.

The 1794-AENT delivers the reliability and precision required for Ethernet-based distributed I/O communication in industrial automation.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1794-AENT
Question: What is the primary function of the 1794-AENT module?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The 1794-AENT is an Ethernet/IP communication adapter that allows FLEX I/O modules to be remotely connected to an Ethernet-based control system. It serves as a gateway between FLEX I/O modules and a Logix-based controller such as ControlLogix or CompactLogix. This helps in building distributed control architectures over Ethernet networks.

Question: What are the dimensions of the 1794-AENT module?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The dimensions of the 1794-AENT are approximately 3.4 x 3.7 x 2.7 inches (87 x 94 x 92 mm). Its compact design allows it to be easily installed on a DIN rail within control panels. Despite its small size, it supports full Ethernet/IP communication capabilities.

Question: What is the required power supply voltage for the 1794-AENT?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The module operates within a voltage range of 19.2 to 31.2 VDC, with a nominal rating of 24 VDC. Power must comply with SELV or PELV standards for safe operation. The power input feeds the module and connected FLEX I/O modules.

Question: How to factory reset 1794-AENT?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

To factory reset the 1794-AENT Ethernet/IP adapter, power off the module and set the node address rotary switches on the front panel to 888. Then power the module back on. It will enter factory default mode, clear the existing IP configuration, and await a new configuration via BOOTP or manual setting. After reset, return the switches to their desired address before rebooting.

Question: Is the 1794-AENT adapter still being manufactured?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The 1794-AENT adapter is currently in the "End of Life" phase and will be officially discontinued by Rockwell Automation on September 30, 2028. After this date, the module will no longer be available for purchase. Users are advised to start planning migration to the recommended functional replacement, 1794-AENTR, to ensure continuity in their control systems.
