Product Description:

The Allen-Bradley 1747-L542 is a processor from the SLC 5/04 family of programmable logic controllers (PLCs).¹ This controller offers 32K words of user memory for program storage and execution.² It's part of the SLC 500 platform, a widely used legacy system in industrial automation. The 1747-L542 provides reliable control for various applications.³

Important Note: The SLC 500 family, including the 1747-L542, is considered a legacy product line by Rockwell Automation. They recommend migrating to newer ControlLogix or CompactLogix platforms for new applications. However, the 1747-L542 is still used in many existing installations and may be required for maintenance or expansion of those systems.

Key Features:

• 32K Words of User Memory: Provides sufficient memory for moderately complex control programs.⁴
• SLC 5/04 Processor: Offers a balance of performance and cost-effectiveness for legacy applications.
• (Specify Communication Options): This is where you would list the specific communication ports available on this model. Common options for SLC 5/04 include DH-485, DH+, and RS-232.⁵ Consult the official documentation to confirm.
• (Specify I/O Capacity): The SLC 5/04 controllers support a range of I/O modules. The exact number of I/O points depends on the specific configuration. Consult the official documentation to confirm.
• Programming Software: Typically programmed using RSLogix 500 software.
