The 1747-SDN is a high-performance DeviceNet Scanner Module designed for the Allen-Bradley SLC 500 platform. It serves as the master communication interface, allowing SLC 5/03, 5/04, and 5/05 processors to control, configure, and collect data from up to 63 DeviceNet-compatible slave devices. This module is essential for integrating motor starters, variable frequency drives (VFDs), sensors, and distributed I/O into a centralized control system. By supporting multiple data exchange modes and providing a transparent "Pass-Through" feature for software configuration, the 1747-SDN significantly reduces system wiring while increasing diagnostic visibility across the industrial network.
The 1747-SDN integrates directly into the SLC 500 chassis and manages the DeviceNet physical and data link layers.
Manufacturer: Rockwell Automation / Allen-Bradley
Model Number: 1747-SDN
Module Type: DeviceNet Scanner Module
System Compatibility: SLC 500 Series (SLC 5/03 or higher)
DeviceNet Node Capacity: 63 Slave Nodes (Nodes 0–63, Scanner occupies one)
Communication Rates: 125 k, 250 k, and 500 k baud
Backplane Current Draw: 500 mA at 5V DC
DeviceNet Current Draw: 90 mA at 24V DC (sourced from the network)
I/O Messaging Modes: Polled, Strobe, Cyclic, and Change-of-State (COS)
DeviceNet Power: 11–25V DC (Linear power supply recommended)
Isolation: 500V DC (between DeviceNet and SLC backplane)
Operating Temperature: 0°C to 55°C (32°F to 131°F)
Product Net Weight: 0.17 kg (0.37 lbs)
Optimized Network Traffic: Through Change-of-State (COS) and Cyclic I/O modes, the 1747-SDN reduces bandwidth consumption by updating the processor only when data changes or at specific intervals.
DeviceNet Pass-Through: This feature enables a PC connected to the SLC processor to configure DeviceNet nodes directly using RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, eliminating the need for a separate 1770-KFD or USB-CAN adapter.
Status Display: A built-in 2-digit numeric display provides real-time diagnostic codes, identifying specific node failures or network errors (e.g., Code 77 for communication faults) for rapid troubleshooting.
Modular Integration: Compatible with standard SLC 500 I/O racks, allowing for easy expansion and hardware migration in legacy systems.
Our production line was down due to a faulty Bently Nevada monitor. We found it in stock here and they shipped it via DHL immediately. Back in operation within 48 hours—truly a lifesaver for our plant.
Finding brand new, original modules is critical for our safety. This team delivers factory-fresh components with full certification. Their commitment to only selling new products makes them our most trusted partner.
We have sourced Honeywell and Schneider parts here for two years. Every shipment arrives well-packaged with original factory seals intact. Clear communication and the best lead times in the industry.
