Hi,
I have a piece of kit using an AB SLC 5/04 that I'm putting onto an Ethernet network. A new 5/05 16k processor has been purchased, but I need 32k of memory. Instead of buying a new 32k processor (~€2000), could I use the 1747-M13 64k User Memory Module (~€200) on the 16k processor to expand the memory? I'm thinking that there must be a disadvantage to this, otherwise why use the 32k or 64k processors at all?
Am I misinterpreting the use of the 1747-M13?
Thanks in advance.
