The 1203-GU6 is a SCANport to RS-232 communication interface that provides a direct digital interface between a personal computer and any Allen-Bradley drive or host that supports SCANport. This module connects to the SCANport host through an 8-pin circular connector and to the personal computer through a 9-pin subminiature D female connector.
Direct SCANport Powering
9600 bps Serial Support
Built-in Visual Diagnostics
The 1203-GU6 module draws its operating power directly from the SCANport host (130 mA at 12V DC) and supports serial data rates of 1200, 2400, 4800, and 9600 bps. It features "PORT" and "MOD" status indicators to provide visual diagnostics for the SCANport connection and the module's operational status during drive configuration and monitoring.

Automotive Assembly
Used in engine and vehicle assembly lines to interface with 1336 PLUS and 1305 drives for precise motion control. The module allows technicians to upload and download drive parameters via a personal computer to ensure consistent production cycles.
Petrochemical Refineries
Applied in hazardous area control rooms to monitor drive performance and status for pumping and compression equipment. It provides a direct digital link for remote diagnostics and parameter adjustment without interrupting the SCANport host operation.
Material Handling
Deployed in automated sorting and conveyor systems to configure drive acceleration and deceleration profiles. The serial interface supports the use of DriveExplorer software to maintain optimal throughput and reduce downtime in high-speed distribution centers.
Food & Beverage
Integrated into bottling and packaging lines to manage variable frequency drives for liquid filling and capping machinery. It facilitates the synchronization of multiple drive units by allowing rapid configuration changes through a standard RS-232 serial connection.
Metal Processing
Utilized in steel mills and foundry applications to monitor the torque and speed of heavy-duty induction motors. The module’s integrated status indicators provide immediate visual feedback for troubleshooting communication links in high-electrical-noise environments.
Water Treatment
Implemented in municipal pumping stations to configure and monitor drives for large-scale water distribution and filtration systems. It allows for the collection of drive operational data to support preventative maintenance schedules and energy efficiency analysis.
communication network designed to provide an interface through a single cable from a programmable controller directly to “smart” devices. The 1203-GU6 module and 1336-GM6 board provide an electronic communications interface between a DeviceNet network and any single SCANport product. The module translates DeviceNet messages into SCANport messages that can be understood by the connected product.
These adapters feature flash upgradeability for field updates and COS (Change of State) capability to report only new data. Cyclic operation lets you customize the device’s activity by reporting data at specific intervals, while Peer I/O capabilities let the drive’s I/O be broadcast to or received from other connected drives. Software configuration allows you to configure the adapter using DeviceNet Manager, RSNetWorx, or HyperTerminal.
