Allen-Bradley 1756-M02AE ControlLogix/GuardLogix 2-Axis Analog Encoder Servo Module

Description

The Allen-Bradley 1756-M02AE is a 2-axis analog encoder servo module designed for the ControlLogix/GuardLogix platform, engineered for industrial automation control applications. As a core component of the 1756 ControlLogix modular system, it supports flexible configuration with other CPU, I/O, and communication modules, enabling seamless upgrades from basic logic control to complex process management. This module features 2 independent axes and provides 1 quadrature position feedback output to monitor actuator position, ensuring motors follow programmed motion profiles accurately. It is compatible with multiple quadrature-output rotary and linear sensors, and controls drives or actuators requiring +/-10V speed or torque reference inputs, while generating analog command references for connected drives. The module can be installed in any available slot of ControlLogix chassis including 1756-A4, 1756-A7, 1756-A10, 1756-A13, and 1756-A17, but requires a compatible removable terminal block (RTB) such as 1756-TBCH or 1756-TBS6H. Proper grounding of the chassis and power supply is required prior to installation. A related redundant variant, the 1756-M02AE-CC, offers enhanced durability for demanding industrial environments.
