ControlNet Network Interface Characteristics
The 1784-PCC provides portable ControlNet communication access for Allen-Bradley automation systems through PCMCIA-equipped computers. The interface enables network configuration, controller monitoring, and diagnostic communication through the ControlNet NAP connection.
The card is designed for ControlNet deterministic network environments and supports data exchange between engineering computers and ControlNet-enabled PLC processors, scanners, and communication devices. Within Allen-Bradley ControlNet architectures, the interface supports software-based configuration functions through compatible RSLinx communication drivers.
Firmware and driver compatibility are required for proper operation with supported Windows operating systems. The PCMCIA Type II hardware format provides direct connection capability for portable programming platforms.
Frequently Asked Questions
Q: What communication network does the 1784-PCC support?
A: The 1784-PCC supports ControlNet communication through a Network Access Port (NAP) interface.
Q: What power supply is required for the 1784-PCC?
A: The card operates from 5 VDC supplied through the PCMCIA interface, with a maximum current requirement of 225 mA.
Q: Is the 1784-PCC compatible with modern Ethernet-based networks?
A: No. The 1784-PCC is a ControlNet communication interface card and does not provide Ethernet communication functions.
Field Installation Guidelines
Install the 1784-PCC only in computers equipped with a compatible PCMCIA Type II slot. Remove power from the portable computer or follow the computer manufacturer's PCMCIA installation procedure before inserting or removing the card.
Connect the ControlNet NAP cable using the specified connector interface and verify that cable routing avoids high-voltage power conductors and sources of electromagnetic interference.
Install and configure the required communication driver software before establishing network communication. Maintain proper grounding and shielding practices for ControlNet cabling according to the network installation requirements.
Avoid excessive mechanical force on the PCMCIA connector and protect the card from electrostatic discharge during handling.
