What 1756 Input module will work with a 845D Gray Code Encoder
dan_did_it replied to dan_did_it's topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Hi Chantecler! you are definately not intruding! I appreciate your comment. BTW I am a big fan of U of M ! I grew up in Michigan not far from there :) Yes, terminal 34 will be connected to encoder pin T and the negative of the 24vdc power supply. Dan -
What 1756 Input module will work with a 845D Gray Code Encoder
dan_did_it posted a topic in Allen Bradley / Rockwell Automation
Hello, I am migrating a PLC-5 to Control Logix. Due to location etc, we need to keep the existing 845D-SHHZ25AGCW4 Encoders. (256 counts, single turn 24vdc NPN open Collector.) I tried to use a 1756-Ib16IF, but I toasted my spare encoder. (Have to get another one). My question is has anyone ever done this since the 1771-DL is not made in CLX form factor. Also, what Module did you use if you did try this and if you have a wiring diagram, would be great! (I cannot afford another fried encoder) Thanks! Dan -

I have attached the copy from the Rockwell manual of the 1756-IB16IF module, I also attached a copy of the way I wired it to the 845D Gray code Encoder (NPN Open Collector). Ken, see if you think I goofed up. Thanks! Dan -

Thanks Ken. inwill post a drawing of how I think it’s sposed to wire to the 1756-IB16IF tomorrow. let me know if you think there is something wrong with my thought process. THANKS! Dan -

Here’s a photo of the inside of the encoder -

I believe I toasted it when I accidentally swapped polarity of the 24vdc to the encoder. (I fried the encoder, not the module) i am still apprehensive that possibly something else damaged the encoder?
