The Allen-Bradley 1734-IB8 provides eight sinking digital input channels for receiving on/off signals from compatible industrial sensors, switches and other sourcing field devices.
The module is part of the Rockwell Automation POINT I/O distributed I/O platform and occupies a narrow installation footprint when assembled with the required compatible terminal base and network adapter.
Both off-to-on and on-to-off input transitions support a hardware filter plus selectable digital filtering, helping engineers configure signal response for the application.
Eight yellow input indicators provide visual channel-state information, while a green/red module status indicator assists with commissioning and routine troubleshooting.
The 1734-IB8 can operate as part of a properly configured POINT I/O station with compatible communication adapters, allowing digital signals to be collected near industrial equipment.
With a 10 to 28.8 VDC input range, reinforced field-to-system isolation and an operating temperature specification of -20 to +55°C, the module supports suitably enclosed industrial control installations.

What is the Allen-Bradley 1734-IB8?
It is an eight-channel, 24 VDC sinking digital input module belonging to the Allen-Bradley POINT I/O distributed I/O family.
How many input channels does the module provide?
The 1734-IB8 provides eight digital inputs numbered 0 through 7, arranged as one group of eight.
Is 1734-IB8 a sinking or sourcing input module?
It is a sinking input module, intended for appropriately rated sourcing field signals such as many three-wire PNP proximity sensors. Confirm wiring compatibility before installation.
What is the input voltage range?
The nominal input voltage is 24 VDC, with a specified on-state voltage range of 10 to 28.8 VDC.
What is the nominal input current?
The nominal on-state input current is 4 mA at 24 VDC, with an on-state operating range of 2 to 5 mA.
Can the input filter delay be configured?
Yes. The published specification provides a 0.5 ms hardware filter plus an additional user-selectable filtering interval of 0 to 65 ms for input transitions.
What terminal base does the 1734-IB8 require?
Rockwell Automation specifies the 1734-TB or 1734-TBS POINT I/O terminal base. Check whether the required terminal base is included in the purchased item.
Does the module provide LED indicators?
Yes. It has eight yellow input status indicators and a green/red module status indicator.
How much POINTBus current does it require?
The maximum POINTBus current is 75 mA at 5 VDC. Include this value in the overall POINT I/O power budget.
Can 1734-IB8 connect directly to Ethernet?
No. The input module requires an appropriate POINT I/O station and compatible communication adapter for network connectivity. It does not contain an independent Ethernet port.
Is 1734-IB8 the same as 1734-IB8S?
No. The 1734-IB8 is a standard digital input module, while the 1734-IB8S belongs to the POINT Guard I/O safety input family. They must not be treated as interchangeable safety components.
What should be checked before ordering?
Confirm catalog number 1734-IB8, required series and firmware compatibility, eight sinking inputs, 24 VDC field supply, 1734-TB or 1734-TBS terminal base, keyswitch position 1, POINTBus power budget, communication adapter and enclosure conditions.
