Overview

The EtherNet/IP ArmorBlock is a 24V DC I/O module that communicates via EtherNet/IP. The sealed IP65, IP67 and IP69K housing of these modules requires no enclosure. Note that environmental requirements other than IP65, IP67 and IP69K may require an additional appropriate enclosure. I/O connectors are micro M12 style.

EtherNet/IP networks use advanced network technology, for example, producer/consumer communication, to increase network functionality and throughput.

For detailed information about features, functionality, and configuration requirements and procedure for the 1732E-IF4M12R, 1732E-OF4M12R modules, see the 1732E ArmorBlock Dual-Port EtherNet/IP 4-Point Analog Input and Output Modules User Manual, publication 1732E-UM005.

Module Identification

The module features several connection points and indicators:

(1) Function Earth grounds the I/O block's EtherNet/IP communication circuitry to mitigate the effect of noise on the network. The device requires a solid earth ground connection, either through a metal screw to a grounded metal panel or through a wire. See Ethernet Connector on page 11 for connections.

Optional Accessory

The following table identifies an optional accessory that can be used with the modules and must be ordered separately.

Install the Module

To install the module:

Set the Network Address

The I/O block ships with the rotary switches set to 999 and DHCP enabled. To change the network address, you can do one of the following:

The I/O block reads the switches first to determine if the switches are set to a valid number. To set the network address:

  1. Remove power.
  2. Remove the switch dust caps.
  3. Rotate the three (3) switches on the front of the module using a small blade screwdriver.
  4. Line up the small notch on the switch with the number setting you wish to use. Valid settings range from 001...254.
  5. Replace switch dust caps. Make sure not to over tighten.
  6. Reapply power.
  7. Record IP address on product label found on the side of enclosure.

Set Network Address Diagram: The diagram shows three rotary switches (X100, X10, X1). An example illustrates setting the switches to 163, which configures the module IP address to 192.168.1.163.

Note: You need to remove the protective switch dust caps before you can adjust the address settings.

When the switches are set to a valid number, the I/O block's IP address is 192.168.1.xxx, where xxx represents the number set on the switches. The I/O block's subnet mask is 255.255.255.0 and default gateway address is set to 192.168.1.1.

When the I/O block uses the network address set on the switches, it does not have a host name assigned to it or use any Domain Name Server.

If the switches are set to an invalid number (e.g., 000 or a value greater than 254 excluding 888), the I/O block checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If DHCP is enabled, the I/O block requests an address from a DHCP server, which also assigns other Transport Control Protocol (TCP) parameters. The modules are shipped with the network switches set to 999.

If DHCP is not enabled, the I/O block uses the IP address (along with other TCP configurable parameters) stored in nonvolatile memory.

Network Address Switch Value 001: The module IP address cannot be the same as the gateway address. If the address switches are set to 001, the module IP address becomes 192.168.1.1, which is the same as the default gateway address. In this case, the module gateway address will be set to 0.0.0.0.

Default Factory Configuration: The switch value 888 resets the module to default factory configuration on power up. The module will not operate properly when powered up with this setting. The switches must be set to a different (and valid) value and then power cycled after a reset. While in reset state, the module LED flashes red and the network LED goes off.

Mount the Module

Two sets of mounting holes are used to mount the module directly to a panel or machine. Mounting holes accommodate #6 (M3) pan head screws. The torque specification is 0.68 Nm (6 lb-in.).

High Vibration Area Mounting: If you mount the module in an area subject to shock or vibration, use a flat and a lock washer to mount the module, as shown in the illustration. Torque the mounting screws to 0.68 Nm (6 lb-in.).

Product Dimensions: Refer to the mounting dimensions illustration to help you mount the module.

Female Output

The diagram shows a 4-pin female receptacle.

The power required by the module is based on a 4-pin micro-style connector system. Power can be daisy chained through the module either left to right or right to left. The standard configuration is with Module/Auxiliary power entering the module on the left connector.

Both modules require two 24V DC (nominal) supplies. These supplies are called the Module Power and the Auxiliary Power. The Module power supplies the microprocessor and Ethernet portions of the module. The Auxiliary Power provides power for the analog circuitry in both analog modules (1732E-IF4M12R and 1732E-OF4M12R) and for the voltage or current outputs on the 173E-OF4M12R analog output module. Internally, the Module Power and Auxiliary Power are electrically isolated.

IMPORTANT The maximum current that any pin on the power connectors can carry is 4 A.

ATTENTION: To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), this equipment and all connected I/O must be powered from a source compliant with the following: Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low Voltage (PELV).

ATTENTION: To comply with UL restrictions, this equipment must be powered from a source compliant with the following: Limited Voltage/Limited Current.

ATTENTION: The device meets UL Type 1 Enclosure rating.
