The analog inputs are only 0 to 10 VDC and you canÆt configure the data format like you can with the 1762-IF2OF2.Īt this point I converted the Micrologix 1200 program to a Micrologix 1100. Lucky for me, I had exactly 4 expansion modules.ģ. I had some other questions for Rockwell and tech support did inform me of this when I was talking to them. BIG WARNING û The Micrologix 1100 only supports 4 expansion modules compared with the Micrologix 1200s 6 expansion modules. In the end I only had the encoder on inputs 1 and 2 and used five of the base outputs.Ģ. Most of the Outputs went through the expansion modules and I had enough spare inputs on the IQ16s to move all of the inputs to the expansion module. There is only 10 inputs and 6 outputs on the Micrologix 1100 compared to the Micrologix 1200s 24 inputs and 16 outputs.
MSG INSTRUCTION RSLOGIX 500 UPGRADE
I/O û There are some things you need to watch out for when planning to upgrade to a Micrologix 1100 or designing a new project for that matterġ. So not only did this test the capabilities of the Micrologix 1100 but also how easily it could be swapped for a Micrologix 1200. All other program changes would have to be made in 2 minute openings when new parts were being loaded. This was a much cheaper solution but the machine could only be down twice for a half a day each time. I probably could have used a memory module and some 1761-NET-ENIs to do it but it seemed like a perfect time to try the Micrologix 1100. It was also to be hooked to the Ethernet network for data acquisition. I was asked to make some upgrades to it that was going to push the data memory over the Micrologix 1200s 2k limit. It uses a Panelview 600 DF1, 2711-T6C16, as a HMI. It uses one high speed counter (Input 0 and 1) hooked to an encoder and uses the 1762-IF2OF2 to control a AB 2098-DSD-020 servo drive. I built the controls for the machine about 4 years ago using a Micrologix 1200. I have finally got an application to use one on and I thought I would share my first impressions with you.įirst here is a little background on the machine. I know there have been several of us contemplating whether or not to use the Micrologix 1100.
