Specifications
The new
1747-PSD program storage device simplifies PLC program backup and upgrade
shipping issues for the users of Micrologix 1000 and SLC-5/03, -5/04, and -5/05
processors. It allows the backup of PLC programs without the need for a computer
or programming software. OEMs can confidently ship program upgrades to end users
for easy and low cost installation at remote sites.
Capabilities
The
1747-PSD performs many functions. The device can upload programs
from PLCs or download programs to PLCs. It will toggle the
PLC from Run Mode to Program Mode and allows the transfer of
programs between PLC memory and an EEPROM memory cartridge. The
device also has the ability to clear the processor’s memory.
Features
The 1747-PSD provides reliable
storage of user programs. The device
is designed to handle over 10,000 uploads and an unlimited
number of downloads. It performs error checking prior to
downloading a PLC program to ensure that the program is compatible
with the target PLC. The PSD
can be powered by either two AAA batteries or by an external
7-30V dc power supply. A battery save feature shuts off power
30 seconds after the operation is completed. Stored pro-grams
are
retained in Flash EPROM memory even if the batteries and
power supply fail. The
hand-held device is lightweight and very easy to use. Only minimal
training should be needed. One red LED and one green LED
provide instant status feedback to the user. For ease of operation,
all of the PSD functions can be accessed using one switch
and one pushbutton. Installation
of the 1747-PSD is simple, using a standard RS-2329-pin D-shell connector. The
device attaches to the PLC with standard
SLC-500 and Micrologix cables (1747-CP3 and 1761-CBL-PM02). Access
is via the Micrologix 1000 mini-din RS-232 port or the
SLC-500 processor 9-pin RS-232 port. For
maximum compatibility, the 1747-PSD can store the largest PLC
programs of the SLC-500 and Micrologix processors.
