The SST-IBS-CLX scanner device from Allen-Bradley and Woodhead is an industrial scanner from the Allen-Bradley and Woodhead SST Cards series that supports the Allen-Bradley Data Highway Plus communication protocols. It is a master interbus scanner component that is used to scan and transmit data in a variety of industrial applications. The SST-IBS-CLX master scanner can be configured through the Phoenix Contact CMD software. Its parameters are configured to use sample ladder logic programs. It can work with different Allen-Bradley systems and devices, but it may need to undergo a different setup or configuration process with different systems in order to function properly. The SST-IBS-CLX master scanner is a special type of module that is either a separate module in a multi-module system or a component that is built into a single module for communication with a network module.

The Allen-Bradley and Woodhead SST-IBS-CLX master interbus scanner is meant to transmit data between itself and the module it is connected to, and the I/O configuration of the whole system will determine what kind of data the system will transmit, how much data it will transmit, and which data is transmitted between the master scanner and the module and which data is transmitted between the drive and the module. The network I/O mapping needs to be the first thing that is configured in the host modules for the SST-IBS-CLX master scanner to function. The SST-IBS-CLX master scanner can support data in the form of Process Input Data Description or PIDD words and Process Output Data Description or PODD words. Its operating temperature range is from 14 to 149 degrees Fahrenheit.
