This module acts as a bridge, enabling ControlLogix systems to communicate with Reliance Electric AutoMax Distributed Power Systems (DCS) and traditional Allen-Bradley Remote I\/O (RIO) networks. It provides a strategic migration path for brownfield sites, allowing operators to modernize their control architecture while retaining functional legacy drive racks and remote I\/O infrastructure.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFeatures\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Performance Processing:\u003c\/strong\u003e Equipped with a 100 MHz IDT MIPS processor for efficient protocol translation and data handling.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eMemory Architecture:\u003c\/strong\u003e Features 1 MB of onboard logic RAM and 512 KB of shared backplane RAM to manage complex communication tasks.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eVersatile Operating Modes:\u003c\/strong\u003e Supports DCS Master, DCS Slave, and RIO Master configurations for flexible network deployment.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLegacy Network Compatibility:\u003c\/strong\u003e Bridges the gap between ControlLogix backplanes and AutoMax DCS or RIO environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eHigh-Capacity Communication:\u003c\/strong\u003e Capable of managing up to 55 DCS slave nodes in Master mode or handling extensive I\/O polling in RIO mode.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eTechnical Specifications\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003ctable\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBrand\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eAllen-Bradley\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProduct Line\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eControlLogix\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eModule Type\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eCommunication Interface\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eProcessor\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e100 MHz IDT MIPS\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eMemory\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e1 MB Logic RAM \/ 512 KB Shared RAM\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBackplane Current (5.1V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e650 mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eBackplane Current (24V)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e75 mA\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003ePower Dissipation\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e5 Watts\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eInterface Port\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eDB9 D-shell\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003ctr\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003eNode Capacity\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003ctd\u003e55 DCS Slave Nodes (Master Mode)\u003c\/td\u003e\n\u003c\/tr\u003e\n\u003c\/table\u003e\u003ch3\u003eInstallation Guidelines\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eEnsure the ControlLogix chassis is powered down before inserting or removing the 1756-AMXN module to prevent electrical damage.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eVerify that the module is fully seated in the chassis slot and that the retaining screws are tightened to ensure proper grounding.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eUse appropriate shielded cabling for the DB9 interface to minimize electromagnetic interference (EMI) in high-noise industrial environments.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eConfigure the module operating mode through the ControlLogix software environment prior to establishing network communication.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eMaintain adequate ventilation around the chassis to ensure heat dissipation stays within the 5W power dissipation limit.\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch3\u003eFAQ\u003c\/h3\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: Can the 1756-AMXN be used to replace an AutoMax controller entirely?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: Yes, it is designed to allow a ControlLogix controller to act as the master for an existing AutoMax DCS network, effectively replacing the legacy controller while maintaining the existing field devices.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eQ: What is the primary function of the RIO Master mode?\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003eA: In RIO Master mode, the module acts as a remote scanner, allowing the ControlLogix processor to read and write data to legacy Remote I\/O chassis, supporting up to 250 input words and 28 output words.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Allen-Bradley","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":48845699645630,"sku":"1756-AMXN","price":73.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0725\/1145\/5422\/files\/wm_1_d4e39be0-b56d-4056-8972-e5de559b4cf0.jpg?v=1788658571","url":"https:\/\/www.autooiltech.com\/es\/products\/allen-bradley-1756-amxn-remote-i-o-master","provider":"AutoOilTech Limited","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
