1756-RIO-CC ControlLogix Remote I/O (RIO) communication module Supports implementation of ControlLogix controllers in harsh environments

The 1756-RIO-CC is a ControlLogix Remote I/O (RIO) communication module with conformal coating manufactured by Rockwell Automation. It supports communication and data transfer between ControlLogix controllers and devices on remote I/O networks in harsh environments.


Features:

The 1756-RIO-CC can be used as a network scanner or adapter in ControlLogix systems:

Scanner mode: In scanner mode, the 1756-RIO-CC continuously scans and communicates with I/O adapters on a remote network. It then transfers discrete and block-transfer data between the ControlLogix controller and remote I/O devices.
Adapter mode: The 1756-RIO-CC can also be used as an adapter that will simulate one or more I/O racks to a scanner on a remote network. This allows the integration of existing PLC-5, PLC-3, or SLC systems with ControlLogix controllers, minimizing downtime during upgrades.
Main features:

Three anti-paint: "CC" in the model number may indicate the presence of a conformal coating on the board. This coating provides additional protection against dust, moisture corrosion, and other contaminants typically found in harsh environments such as industrial environments or outdoor locations.
Scanner/Adapter functionality: Provides flexibility by acting as a scanner to communicate with remote I/O or an adapter for integrating legacy systems.
Data transfer: Supports discrete and block transfer data communication between ControlLogix controllers and remote devices.
Simple configuration: No complex message instructions (MSG) are required for data transfer. All data transfers are arranged for efficient operation.
