Product Overview

The 1747-KE is an SLC 500-series communication interface module from Allen-Bradley. It bridges DH-485 networks and devices using DF1 protocol via configurable serial standards (RS-232, RS-422, RS-485). Installed in an SLC 500 chassis, it enables network extension, remote link-up, or modem interfacing for distributed control systems. The module supports both Monitor and Modify modes via a three-position terminal, with LED status indication, and is typically used for linking remote stations or integrating serial devices into an SLC 500 control system.
