Features:
- Interface Between DeviceNet Network and 8 Sourcing Output Channels
- Combines Capability of Digital Output Control with Distributed I/O Architecture
- Operates in Conjunction with Master Scanners and Expansion I/O Modules
The Allen-Bradley 1791D-0B8P 8 sourcing output base module operates as a CompactBlock I/O solution in DeviceNet networks, providing reliable digital output control for industrial automation applications. It continuously exchanges I/O data with the master through polled, change-of-state, or cyclic connections and distributes sourcing output signals to control solenoids, relays, and other field devices. Seamless communication is standard with the 1791D-0B8P, however using an optional expansion module configuration will allow seamless integration of additional I/O points while monitoring expansion health status. The 1791D-0B8P has made improvements in several areas over traditional centralized I/O designs in addition to incorporating built-in power supply and DeviceNet adapter capability within the compact block.
The 1791D-0B8P provides essential output functions for distributed control systems, and is a critical component of the I/O path, directly affecting the proper, normal operation of field actuators and indicators. One 1791D-0B8P base module is required per output node, with support for expansion modules to increase I/O density. The 1791D-0B8P occupies minimal installation space and is always positioned close to sensors and actuators for reduced wiring complexity.
For expanded I/O applications, the 1791D-0B8P supports connection of additional CompactBlock expansion modules. In addition to standard standalone operation, the expansion configuration also performs automatic health monitoring. The 1791D-0B8P expansion system executes status reporting using the internal byte returned indicating expansion module health. Using this method, the base module continually monitors the status of connected expansions. If the system detects that the expansion module is no longer operating within normal parameters, it will automatically report this condition through the DeviceNet network and update the health indication byte.
The 1791D-0B8P Allen-Bradley 8 sourcing output base module may still be available for purchase and support from Apter Power beyond End-Of-Life (EOL) by the manufacturer (OEM).
