I. Module Description
The 1492-CM1771-LD002 conversion module provides field wire signal conversion from an A-B 1771-IAD, 79 to
138Vac/dc, 16 point input module to a 1756-IH16I, 90 to 146Vdc, 16 point individually isolated input module or a
1771-IMD, 184 to 250Vac or 166 to 230Vdc, 16 point input module to a 1756-IM16I, 159 to 265Vac, 16 point
individually isolated input module. The conversion module provides the mating connector to the 1771-IAD or
1771-IMD module swing-arm/terminal block with the attached field wires. It routes those signals via its 37-pin
connector and a 1492-CONCABY pre-wired cable to compatible terminals on the 1756-IH16I or 1756-IM16I
(refer to Wiring Diagrams on page 2 and 3 for details).

WARNING
De-energize and lockout any and all power to all I/O field devices connected to the A-B 1771 I/O
Chassis, and the power to the 1771 I/O Chassis itself. Ensure all power is de-energized and locked out
to any device in the control cabinet where the conversion is to be performed. Ensure work is
performed by qualified personnel.
Refer to conversion module Specifications Section: Maximum Operating Voltage
II. Module Installation
The 1492-CM1771-LD002 conversion module must be installed in a 1492 conversion base-plate and cover-plate
assembly. The installation of the module into the assembly is explained in the Installation Manual that ships with the
conversion assembly. For a list of compatible assemblies refer to Appendix A.

Conversion Module Installation and Application Considerations
The input delay times for the 1771-IAD module versus 1756-IH16I module are as follows:
1771-IAD
1756-IH16I
a) Off-to-On Delay
3ms @120V DC
2ms (plus selectable filter)

NOTICE
VI. Appendix A - 1771 to 1756 Chassis Conversion System Selection Process
1) Determine the number of 1771 I/O modules used in the 1771 I/O Chassis to be converted to 1756. NOTE: In some
cases two 1756 modules may be required for one 1771 module. Select the applicable 1492 conversion modules from
the Digital and Analog Conversion Selection Table Matrix.
2) Review the Max Slots for I/O and chassis width data from the below table, and select a 1756 I/O Chassis which meets
your conversion needs from Step 1. Ensure the information from the I/O Conversion module tables are reviewed first.
3) Once the 1756 Chassis is selected, select the Conversion Assembly. The Conversion Assembly has the same dimensional foot-print as the 1771 chassis and can use the same mounting hardware. The assembly consists of a base-plate
to hold the conversion modules and a cover-plate to protect the modules and to mount the selected 1756 chassis. The
combined depth of the conversion assembly with the 1756 chassis mounted is 10.25 inches (Controller w/key) to
10.0 inches (Controller w/o Key).

Foot Notes:
1771-A3B is not listed as it is used for 19 inch wide instrumentation panels
Two 1771 width dimensions are provided as some PLC-5 processors have integrated power supplies. Dimension w/PS
includes -P1, -P2, etc. Notice that the width dimension of some 1756 chassis exceed the width of the 1771 chassis with
or without the power supply. Cover-plate chassis mounting design allows the excess 1756 chassis width to be evenly
distributed to both sides, or excess to right or left. Carefully consider this in the conversion
1756-A4 may work in a 1771-A1B application if 4 or less I/O slots were used. Conversion cover-plate is capable to
mount -A4 or -A7
1756-A7 may work in a 1771-A2B application if 6 or less I/O slots were used. Conversion cover-plate is capable to
mount -A7 or -A10
1756-A10 may work in a 1771-A3B1 application if 10 or less I/O slots were used. Conversion cover-plate is capable to
mount -A10 or -A13
1756-A13 may work in a 1771-A4B application if 13 or less I/O slots were used. Conversion cover-plate is capable to
mount -A13 or -A17
