Product Summary
The 1747-M13 is a 64KB flash memory backup module for SLC 500 programmable logic controller processors. It retains your entire user program even after the battery fails without any external power.
Product Procurement & Buyer Guide
Procurement engineers must verify compatibility with SLC 5/03, 5/04, or 5/05 processors before ordering the 1747-M13 module. This memory module requires the 1747-M15 Series B adapter for correct installation and operation.
Using a Series A adapter damages the module and the PROM chip, so always check the revision. The 64-kilobyte flash memory stores 64,000 words of user data with a fast 0.9 ms scan time.
This backup memory prevents program loss when the processor's lithium battery completely drains after two years. The module automatically loads the saved user program upon each power cycle restart.
Step-by-Step User & Installation Guide
Switch the controller OFF completely before installing the memory module or removing its SLC processor. The 1747-M13 module has keyed connectors that prevent improper installation and potential damage.
Set the jumper to connect the A18 pin to the center pin for correct operation. Always use the 1747-M15 Series B adapter to avoid damaging the PROM or memory module.
Do not expose the module to electrostatic charge as it may destroy the stored data. Handle the module in an ESD-safe area with proper grounding procedures to ensure long-term reliability.
