Installation Instructions
SLC 500 Input Simulator
(Catalog Number 1746-SIM)
Application
The SLC 500 Input Simulator is designed for use on 16-point, 24V dc input modules
that incorporate a removable terminal block (RTB). The following table lists the
SLC 500 modules that may be used with the Input Simulator Module.
Catalog Number Module Description
1746-IB16 Current Sinking DC Input Module
1746-ITB16 Fast Response Current Sinking DC Input Module
1746-IV16 Current Sourcing DC Input Module
1746-ITV16 Fast Response Current Sourcing DC Input Module

Installing the Input Simulator
1. Remove the RTB from the input module. To avoid cracking the RTB,
alternate between the two release screws when loosening.
ATTENTION
!
Installing the 1746-SIM on a module other than those listed
above can damage the module and expose you to hazardous
voltages.
ATTENTION
!
Never install or remove RTBs (removable terminal blocks) or
modules while power is applied to the SLC system.
Terminal Block Release Screws
Maximum Torque = 0.7 to 0.9 Nm (6 to 8 in-lb)

2. Mount the 1746-SIM on the input module. Align the Input Simulator release
screws with the mating connector on the module and press the Input
Simulator firmly onto the connector contacts. To avoid damage to the Input
Simulator connector/RTB, alternate between the two screws when
tightening.
3. Connect the 24V dc power supply to the terminals labeled A and B as stated
in the instructions on the Input Simulator. In most instances, the 24V dc user
power available in the SLC 500 power supply can be used. The Input
Simulator A/B terminal block is removable for convenience in making this
connection.
