The Allen-Bradley SLC 500 series, when paired with the SST-ASI-SLC AS interface scanner, provides swift and dependable communication with field devices and sensors. This interface scanner facilitates the connection of SLC 500 series PLCs to basic binary I/O devices, like sensors and actuators, across two ASI networks supporting up to 62 nodes each. With its seamless mounting in industrial networks, it integrates power supply and data transmission using a flat cable while ensuring efficient performance with a cycle time of under 10 milliseconds, leveraging a Renesas M16C processor for optimal operation.
