Greetings! I recently acquired a new machine equipped with a Compact GuardLogix processor, which features Point I/O modules spread out in different areas. I am in search of a 1734 DC Output module that can be controlled within a frequency range of 0 to 3KHz to connect to a Vorne XLdata collection system. Despite spending considerable time searching on Rockwell's website, I have yet to come across a suitable solution. I am wondering if there is a compatible device available in the market.
If you're looking for a Pulse Width Modulation (PWM) module, consider checking out AMCI's offerings. As a trusted Rockwell Partner, I have previous experience with AMCI resolver modules on Allen Bradley (AB) systems, although I haven't personally used the specific PWM module referenced here.
Christoph inquired: Greetings to all! I recently acquired a new machine outfitted with a Compact GuardLogix processor, which includes Point I/O in various locations. I am seeking a 1734 DC Output module that can be controlled within a frequency range of 0 to 3KHz to operate a Vorne XLdata collection system. Despite my extensive search efforts on Rockwell's official website, I have been unable to locate a suitable module. Is such a product available? It can be frustrating dealing with Vorne boards, as I have replaced numerous ones over the past few years. It may be more cost-effective to opt for a data collection scada system like ignition.
Do you require high-frequency output pulses and are limited by the speed of your network connection? If you need a frequency output with a 50% square wave, consider using an AMCI module for precise control. The RPI of the network connection plays a crucial role in determining how fast and frequent output pulses can be sent by the CompactLogix system.
If you're using your own funds, consider investing in the affordable RPi Pico ($10) for controlling up to 16 PWM channels with seven distinct frequencies. The maximum frequency is determined by CPU speed divided by four. Additionally, it's crucial to determine the required current for sinking and sourcing purposes.
Hello! From what I understand, it sounds like you might be looking to control the speed of a DC motor or similar device. Unfortunately, a 1734 DC Output module might not be the perfect pick as it's not typically designed to handle frequency control. Instead, you should consider a suitable VFD (Variable Frequency Drive) that communicates over the same network as your Compact GuardLogix to achieve the desired frequency control range. As for communicating with your Vorne XLdata collection system, you need to ensure that whichever device you choose can interface with it properly. Consulting with a Rockwell's representative could provide additional guidance tailored to your specific setup but I hope this might point you in the right direction!
Hi there! It does sound like a bit of a challenge. While the typical frequency range for 1734 DC Output modules from Rockwell is not as high as 3KHz, there might be other ways to achieve the integration with the Vorne XL data collection system. You could look into using a signal converter or an intermediary device that can manage the frequency requirement. It might be beneficial to contact Rockwell's customer support for tailored advice, as well. Also, another option to consider may be selecting different modules that can satisfy your frequency requirements natively. Good luck!
Hi there! It's indeed a bit challenging to find modules that can cater to that specific frequency range. Despite this, I'd recommend checking out the 1734-OB8 model from Allen-Bradley. While it doesn't technically support frequency control, you can resort to PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) to manipulate DC signals on the lower end of your frequency range. For frequencies reaching 3kHz though, you might need to explore external hardware like PLCs with high-speed outputs. Hope this leads you on the right path, and best of luck with your machine project!
Hey there! You may want to explore the 1734-IB8S Safety Input Module from Rockwell. While it's primarily an input module, by using it in pulse-width modulation mode, you might be able to adjust the output frequency within your desired range. Also, try reaching out to Rockwell support directly - they might have a specialist who can steer you toward a product that aligns more closely with your specific requirements. Don't forget to confirm its compatibility with your Vorne XL data collection system.
Hey there! It sounds like you’re diving deep into your new setup! For a 1734 DC Output module that can handle a 0 to 3 kHz frequency range, you might want to check out the Allen-Bradley 1734-OB8EP or 1734-OB4EP, depending on your specific requirements. They can offer PWM outputs that might work for your application. If you're still having trouble finding the right module through Rockwell, it could also be worth reaching out to a local distributor or even Rockwell's customer support—they might have some insights or alternatives that aren't immediately visible online. Good luck!

Answer: Answer: Currently, there is no standard 1734 DC Output module from Rockwell that offers a frequency control range up to 3KHz. You may need to explore alternative solutions or customizations to meet your specific requirements.
Answer: Answer: While Rockwell may not have a direct solution available, you can consider reaching out to Rockwell's support or exploring third-party vendors for custom or specialized modules that meet your frequency control needs.
Answer: Answer: It may be worth investigating if there are external controllers or signal conditioning devices that can interface between a standard 1734 DC Output module and the Vorne XLdata collection system to achieve the desired frequency range control. Consulting with automation experts or system integrators could also provide valuable insights.
