1747-L553 SLC-5/05 Power Supply Connections

3 posts in this topic

Hey there-

I need to run a program written for a 5/05 at home for troubleshooting purposes. I have the processor, software, RSLogix, cables and other stuff  but all of my SLC chassis are on loan to colleagues so I currently don't have anything to put the CPU in. For this exercise, I do not need anything beyond the CPU (no I/O cards).

Is it possible to provide power to the CPU via the back plane connector plug and run the CPU outside of the chassis? I have all kinds of power supplies but I don't know the pin-outs for the plugs and (not surprisingly) could not find any information on line.

Thanks in advance for any help you can provide,

J

I wouldn't recommend it.

If you don't need the IO, then why not try to run it in the RSLogix500 emulator?

This is a really bad idea. That card is designed for the chassis and nowhere else. I could write for the next ten minutes about all the ways this could go wrong, lol.
