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.
