Product Introduction
The Allen Bradley SST-PB3-SLC is a Profibus DP Remote I/O Scanner Module designed for SLC500 controllers. It enables communication between an SLC processor (SLC 5/03 or later) and DP remote I/O devices on a PROFIBUS network.
This module acts as a PROFIBUS DP Remote I/O Scanner, capable of scanning up to 125 slaves, with each slave supporting 244 bytes of input data and 244 bytes of output data. Its RS-232 configuration port and RS-485 PROFIBUS interface allow for efficient setup and reliable communication.
