Solid-state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment. Safety
Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication SGI-1.1
your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at rok.auto/literature) describes some important differences
between solid-state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also
because of the wide variety of uses for solid- state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must
satisfy themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages resulting from
the use or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because of the many variables
and requirements associated with any particular installation, Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot assume responsibility or
liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.
No patent liability is assumed by Rockwell Automation, Inc. with respect to use of information, circuits, equipment, or
software described in this manual.
Reproduction of the contents of this manual, in whole or in part, without written permission of Rockwell Automation,

Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION: This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage Category II applications (as
defined in IEC 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial eq uipment according to IEC/CISPR 11.
Without appropriate precautions, there may be difficulties with electromagnetic compatib ility
in residential and other environments due to conducted and radiated disturbances.
This equipment is supplied as enclosed equipment. It should not require additional system
enclosure when used in locations consistent with the equipment Enclosure Type Ratings.
Subsequent sections of this publication may contain more information regarding specific
enclosure type ratings, beyond what this product provides, that are required to comply with
certain product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see:
• Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Rockwell Automation publication
1770-4.1
, for additional installation requirements.
• NEMA Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees of protection
provided by different types of enclosure.
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
ATTENTION: This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal
damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this
equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.
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. I/O connectors are sealed M12 style.
EtherNet/IP networks use advanced network technology, for example, producer/consumer communication, to increase
network functionality and throughput.

(1) Protective Earth is provided for the grounding of field devices and is internally connected to each Pin 5 of the M12 I/
connectors. See
(2) Functional Earth grounds the I/O block’s EtherNet/IP communication circuitry which is designed to mitigate the effect
of noise on the network. See
I/O Connectors on page 8.

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 the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0. When the I/O
block uses the network address set on the switches, the I/O block does not have a host name assigned to it or use any
Domain Name Server.
If the switches are set to an invalid number (for example, 000 or a value greater than 254 excluding 888), the I/O block
checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If DHCP is enabl ed, the I/O block asks for an address from a DHCP server. The DHCP
server also assigns other Transport Control Protocol (TCP) parameters.
If DHCP is not enabled, the I/O block uses the IP address (along with other TCP configurable parameters) stored in
nonvolatile memory.
Mount the Module
Two sets of mounting holes are used to mount the module directly to a panel or machine. Mounting holes accommodate
#8 (M4) pan head screws. The torque specification is 1.13 N•m (10 in•lb).
Product Dimensions
Refer to the mounting dimensions illustration to help you mount the module.
6Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-IN004F-EN-E - August 2020
If you mount the module in an area that is subject to shock or vibration, we recommend you use a flat and a lock washer
to mount the module. Mount the flat and the lock washer as shown in the mounting illustration. Torque the mounting
screws to 1.13 N•m (10 in•lb).

Auxiliary Power is based on a 4-pin connector system and is used to provide 24V DC power to I/O modules and other
devices. Running separate power to these devices is most typically used for I/O devices with output connections to
prevent power supply interruption due to switching of outputs. However, some devices require separate auxiliary power to
power them regardless of the presence of outputs.
Depending on the devices used, it may be possible to provide power through only one pair of the four available pins, and in
this case the other available pair may be used for single channel E-stop through the use of special E-stop drop or power
T-ports and shorting plugs. Allen-Bradley E-stop T-ports and shorting plugs are red in color for easy identification.
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/Current.
