PRODUCT INFORMATION
Product Overview
The Allen-Bradley 1762-RTC is a Real-Time Clock Module designed for MicroLogix controllers. It plugs directly into the controller memory port. The module provides accurate 24-hour timekeeping for time-stamped control routines. It tracks year, month, day, day of week, hour, minute, and second.
A built-in lithium cell powers the clock when main power is removed. Users can monitor battery status through system status flags. The hardware supports removal and insertion under power during maintenance operations. It operates in ambient temperatures from 0 °C to 55 °C.
