Assemble the System
1769 Compact I/O power supplies distribute power from either side of the power supply.
The maximum amount of current the system supports in both directions is:
• 1769-PA2, 1769-PB2: 2 amps at 5V DC; 1 amp at 24V DC.
• 1769-PA4, 1769-PB4: 4 amps at 5V DC; 2 amps at 24V DC.
The power supply can be attached to an adjacent I/O module before or after
mounting.
EXAMPLE
A 2 amp at 5V DC power supply (1769-PA2, 1769-PB2) can provide 1 amp to the right side
of the power supply and 1 amp to the left. A 4 amp at 5V DC power supply (1769-PA4,
1769-PB4) can provide 2 amps to the right side of the power supply and 2 amps to the
left.
IMPORTANT
The maximum amount of current that can be distributed from either side of any 1769
power supply is 2 amps at 5V DC and 1 amp at 24V DC.
This is a limit of the 1769 Compact I/O Bus.
