The 1784‑PKTX/B network interface card is a PCI (Peripheral Component Interconnect) universal card that must be inserted into a PCI bus slot on a compatible PC. This card connects a personal computer to Allen‑Bradley networks such as Data Highway Plus (DH+), DH‑485, and Remote I/O, enabling easy programming, configuration, and data acquisition from PLC controllers. It incorporates Plug and Play capabilities defined by the PCI BIOS, so interrupt request levels (IRQ) and base memory addresses are automatically assigned at power‑up, eliminating manual jumper configuration in most Windows environments.
The 1784‑PKTX/B is a PCI network interface card used to connect a PC to Allen‑Bradley PLC‑5 and SLC systems over DH+, DH‑485, and Remote I/O networks. It enables monitoring, programming, and data exchange between the PC and industrial controllers.
What networks does 1784‑PKTX/B support?
It supports Data Highway Plus (DH+), Data Highway‑485 (DH‑485), and Remote I/O networks. Users can connect the PC to multiple Allen‑Bradley controllers over these industrial networks for diagnostics and communication.
What are the operating voltage and power requirements for 1784‑PKTX/B?
The card draws power directly from the PCI bus and does not require an external power supply. The standard PCI voltage is 5 V DC, with typical power consumption around 4 W.
Is 1784‑PKTX/B compatible with older Allen‑Bradley PLC systems?
Yes, it is compatible with legacy PLC‑5 and SLC systems, including both DH+ and DH‑485 networks. Series B revision mainly improves hardware reliability without changing core functionality.
What are the key differences between 1784‑PKTX and 1784‑PKTX/B?
The Series B (/B) version is a revision of the original PKTX card. It features minor hardware improvements for reliability and manufacturing updates, but network support and core functionality remain the same.
