It is a module that combines both the control capabilities of a PLC and the communication capabilities of an EtherNet/IP network.
Here are some key features of the 1769-L38ERMS module:
CompactLogix Platform: The 1769-L38ERMS is part of the CompactLogix series of PLCs, which are known for their compact size and high performance. This module is designed to fit in a 1769 I/O chassis.
Processor: The "L38" in the module's name refers to the processor type. This module is equipped with a powerful 1.5 GHz dual-core processor, allowing for fast program execution and efficient handling of complex automation tasks.
Memory: The module has 2 MB of user program memory and 1.5 MB of data memory. This memory capacity allows for storing and executing ladder logic programs, function blocks, and data structures.
Embedded I/O: The 1769-L38ERMS module features built-in I/O, including 16 digital inputs and 16 digital outputs. This built-in I/O helps reduce system complexity and wiring efforts by eliminating the need for external modules for basic I/O requirements.
