Transfers ASCII characters between a CompactLogix or MicroLogix 1500 system and serial equipment such as barcode readers, printers, weigh scales and operator terminals. Both channels support RS-232, RS-422 and RS-485 electrical interfaces.
Channel-to-channel and channel-to-system isolation
Backplane current
425 mA at 5V DC
Approximate depth
87 mm (3.43 in.)
Data handling
ASCII character transfer with configurable buffers
System role
Specialty communication module
Lifecycle position
Active Mature
02 / SYSTEM INTEGRATION
Connection Path and Selection Logic
CompactLogix controller
Executes logic and exchanges module data through the 1769 bus
1769 local bank
Holds the ASCII module within the supported module-distance and power budget
Serial device
Connects through the selected RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 interface
Engineering configuration
Defines channel mode, framing, baud rate and data handling
Selection advantage: Exact catalog matching preserves the intended electrical interface, controller relationship and field wiring arrangement. Confirm the installed series, revision, companion hardware and project configuration before replacement.

12-Month Warranty · Return Support Contact us within seven days if an issue is found. Items must return in original condition with a clear reason; refund or replacement review begins after receipt. Return shipping is paid by the buyer.
Can both channels use different serial standards? Yes. Each channel is configured independently, so the interface and communication settings must be matched to its connected device.
Q2
What should be supplied for compatibility checking? Provide the controller catalog number, firmware level, 1769 bank arrangement, available power budget and the serial device electrical interface.
Q3
Is this an Ethernet communication module? No. It handles ASCII data through RS-232, RS-422 or RS-485 serial connections; it does not add an Ethernet port.
Q4
Why does module placement matter? A Compact I/O system has power-supply distance and current-budget limits. Confirm the complete bank order before adding or replacing the module.
Q5
What settings should be captured before replacement? Record channel interface, baud rate, parity, stop bits, termination, buffer behavior and controller tag mapping.
