The 1769-IF4 is a high-performance analog input expansion module for the Allen-Bradley CompactLogix and MicroLogix 1500 families. It provides four high-resolution channels capable of interfacing with a wide variety of industrial sensors, including pressure transducers, flow meters, and level transmitters.
With its 16-bit architecture, the 1769-IF4 delivers the precision required for complex process control and data acquisition, enabling granular monitoring of critical system variables.

Removable Terminal Block (RTB): Simplifies field maintenance and module replacement.
Differential Mode: Recommended for high-noise environments or long cable runs; uses two leads per sensor to reject common-mode noise.
Single-Ended Mode: Higher density when sensors share a common return path; ideal for short-distance, local signals.
Data Storage: Converted analog signals are stored as 16-bit signed integers in the controller’s I/O image. Use SCL (Scale) or CPT (Compute) instructions in Studio 5000 to convert raw counts to engineering units.
Can I mix current and voltage inputs on the same module?
Yes. Each channel is individually configurable. For example, a 4–20 mA pressure transmitter can be connected to Channel 0 and a 0–10V position sensor to Channel 1 without interference.
What is the "Power Supply Distance Rating"?
The 1769-IF4 has a rating of 8, meaning it cannot be more than eight slots away from the system power supply (e.g., 1769-PA4). Exceeding this distance may compromise signal accuracy due to backplane voltage drop.
