Product Description

The 1769-L32C (Part Number: 1769-L32C) is a high-performance programmable automation controller within the Allen-Bradley CompactLogix family, specifically designed for applications requiring integrated ControlNet connectivity. This controller acts as a critical network manager, capable of storing scheduled network configurations and parameters essential for stable system initialization. With robust memory capacity and flexible I/O expansion, it serves as a reliable logic engine for mid-sized industrial architectures.

Equipped with a specialized ControlNet port on Channel A, the 1769-L32C facilitates deterministic, high-speed data transfer across the plant floor. It also supports local expansion of up to 16 I/O modules across a maximum of three I/O banks, ensuring scalability for growing production lines. For maintenance and backup, the unit utilizes the user-replaceable 1769-BA lithium battery to preserve project memory during power loss.

Application Scenarios

The 1769-L32C is ideal for decentralized control systems where deterministic communication is essential. Common deployments include:

  • High-speed packaging lines

  • Water treatment telemetry

  • Synchronized material handling systems

These systems require precise timing, which is facilitated via ControlNet connectivity.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the purpose of the NAP port on this controller?

  • The Network Access Port (NAP) allows for a temporary connection point for programming terminals or HMI devices to access the ControlNet network without interrupting the trunk line.

How many tasks can this controller run simultaneously?

  • The 1769-L32C supports up to 16 tasks, including one continuous task and the rest as periodic or event-based tasks.
