Chapter 1
Redundancy System Overview
The 1715 Redundant I/O System lets a ControlLogix controller communicate to
a remote, redundant I/O chassis by using EtherNet/IP. The 1715 Redundant I/
O system provides fault tolerance and redundancy for critical processes by using a
redundant adapter pair and multiple I/O modules that have diagnostics and are
easily replaceable.
The modular architecture lets a system be built and adapted to suit the specific
needs of an installation. It lets the user to choose from different levels of adapter
and I/O fault protection.
The 1715 Redundant I/O System consists of a single, two-slot, adapter base unit
that houses a redundant adapter module pair. The adapter base unit is connected
to up to eight I/O base units, that can hold up to 24 I/O modules (three I/O
modules per I/O base unit) when connected together. The I/O modules can be
configured in any combination of simplex or duplex pairs, depending on the
mode of operation needed. The I/O base units can be connected directly to the
adapter base unit and other I/O base units, or through expansion cables.
The 1715 Redundant I/O System is a modular system in which the adapter and
I/O base units snap together by using mating connectors and retaining clips to
form the backplane. Modules can be removed and replaced without system
interruption. The base units, via termination assemblies, provide the
interconnections for power, adapter, and I/O data. Once connected, the base
units form the single, mechanical assembly, or backplane.
Redundant 1715 Adapter Modules
The redundant, partnered adapter modules monitor inputs/outputs and
diagnostics for the I/O in the remote chassis. If a fault occurs in one of the
redundant adapters, an IP address switchover occurs and I/O monitoring and
communication to the ControlLogix System continues without interruption.
This switchover is completely transparent to the user. Status indicators and status
information available to the ControlLogix application enables you to determine
the status of each 1715-AENTR adapter module.

Chapter 1Redundancy System Overview
1715 I/O Modules
Both digital and analog I/O modules are available for use in this system,
depending on your needs. I/O modules can be used singly or in pairs, providing
configuration in either Simplex or Duplex modes.
These are the 1715 modules that can be used in this system.

System Architecture
With the inclusion of diagnostics for the CIP messaging channel, the 1715
Redundant I/O system can be used for SIL 2 safety applications. For information
about using a SIL 2 safety applications, see Chapter 6
and Chapter 7.
The 1715 Redundant I/O System operates with a pair of 1715-AENTR
adapters.
When designing your control system by using the 1715 Redundant I/O System,
you can use digital and analog I/O modules in one of these ways:
• One I/O module in Simplex mode
• One I/O module with the option to add a second module
• A pair of I/O modules that work in Duplex mode
You must decide the layout of your I/O before building your system, but you can
add additional I/O at any time.
The use of termination assemblies communicates the I/O mode of operation you
choose (Simplex or Duplex) to your system through the backplane (the adapter
and I/O base units).
Termination Assemblies
The termination assembly (TA) matches your software configuration for simplex
or duplex. Attached to an I/O base, the TA can start in any slot and can span
multiple connected bases. When modules are used in Duplex mode, one module
can be absent and the system still runs.

Redundancy System OverviewChapter 1
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
Base Unit Structure
The adapter base unit is always the leftmost base unit in the connection chain.
The total length of the base unit connection chain, including all expansion cables
cannot exceed 10 m (32.81 ft).
A adapter module always occupies slot 0 or 1.
An adapter base unit can support up to 8 I/O base units (up to 24 I/O modules).
1715-AENTR Adapter Modules
The leftmost adapter module position, or slot, is 0. The rightmost adapter
module slot is 1. Slots 0 and 1 of the system are always occupied by one
redundant adapter module pair, and are designated as ‘A’ for the primary adapter
partner and ‘B’ for the secondary adapter partner. This system is designed to run
with two adapter modules. It can run with one adapter module for a limited time
while replacing a damaged module, but ideally, needs both adapter modules
running simultaneously.
There is no method for configuring a system to use only one 1715-AENTR
adapter module. If you use only one 1715-AENTR adapter module, the unused
module generates errors.
A ‘partner’ adapter module can be installed or removed for replacement, while
the 1715 Redundant I/O System is operational. During replacement of the
module, there is a one-time, up to a maximum 500 ms, delay to the system.
I/O Modules
I/O module slots are numbered from 2…25, based on distance from the adapter
base unit. If duplex I/O module pairs are used, the two modules of the pair must
be in adjacent slots. The left, lower slot number is considered the slot number and
address for the pair. Any combination of simplex modules and duplex pairs can be
used in one or more connected I/O bases units.
A ‘partner’ I/O module can be installed or removed while the 1715 Redundant
I/O System is operational, without impact to the rest of the system.

Chapter 1Redundancy System Overview
TIP
Module Positioning in the 1715 Redundant I/O System
There are 26 total slot positions in the system numbered from 0…25. The first
two positions always contain the redundant adapter module pair, in slots 0 and 1.
The remaining positions begin numbering at slot 2 and contain the I/O modules,
ending at slot position number 25. Any combination of simplex or duplex I/O
module pairs can be used in the I/O base units. See Ta b l e 3

Expansion cables can be used to connect base units, as shown in Figure 1 on
page 19.

Layout the Hardware
This section discusses how to layout the system’s hardware by topology.
System Context
The redundant I/O subsystem must be connected to one ControlLogix
redundancy system, or any Logix system that supports I/O via the
EtherNet/IP network. All connections are established via the Ethernet network
by using the topologies supported by the 1756-EN2T or 1756-EN2TR module,
that is, DLR (Ring) or Star.
For additional information about DLR topologies, see the EtherNet/IP
Embedded Switch Technology Application Guide, publication ENET-AP005

Simplex I/O modules fail safe on the first detected fault. The process under
control shuts down when the fault is detected.
This configuration is suitable for high, as well as low demand module
applications.

Redundancy System OverviewChapter 1
Switchover Considerations
Each 1715 Redundant I/O System uses a single IP address as the primary IP
address for all communication on the EtherNet/IP network. The redundant
adapter module pair consists of two active modules, a primary adapter module
and its partner, a secondary module. For the purpose of this document, the
primary module is referred to as module ‘A’ and the secondary module is referred
to as module ‘B’.
On power-up, the adapter module in the leftmost slot is considered the primary
module (when two adapter modules are present) because it uses the primary IP
address, and because it is the module responsible for receiving/transmitting to
ControlLogix controller on the EtherNet/IP network.
The module in the rightmost slot is considered the secondary module partner
and uses the primary IP address +1. For example, if the primary module in the
leftmost slot has an IP address of ‘N’, then the secondary module in the rightmost
slot, has an IP address of ‘N+1’.
Both modules are active at all times and are responsible for monitoring all inputs
and outputs, monitoring diagnostics in the system, and reading and writing data
from/to I/O at exactly the same time. When the primary module receives a write,
it tells the secondary module the data that is to be written, and to which module
it is to be written to. At a synchronized point in time, both adapter modules
physically write to the I/O.
The adapter modules negotiate which module is primary, depending on the
status of the system. If the primary module is unable to perform its role, for
example, if a fault occurs in the primary module, then the secondary module
becomes the new primary, assuming the primary module’s IP address, taking over
the role of communication. The primary module is the only module of the pair
that produces data on the EtherNet/IP network.
In the event of a fault, the IP address swapping between the primary module and
the secondary module takes no longer than 20 ms from the time of the initiating
fault. The secondary module is the new primary and handles all communication.
(Depending on the structure of your Ethernet configuration, this time can be
impacted.)
This IP address swap is transparent to the user. The user can detect which module
the primary module is by looking at the Network status indicator near the top of
each adapter module. On the primary adapter the Network status indicator is
solid green; on the secondary adapter, the Network status indicator flashes green.
Once a swap occurs, the ‘new’ primary module remains the primary unless there’s
a good reason to swap over again. If the B module becomes the primary module
because you need to replace the A module, that is not enough cause to swap IP
addresses back again. Module B remains as the primary module.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1715-UM001C-EN-P - March 201427
Chapter 1Redundancy System Overview
Obtaining a New IP Address
The primary module’s IP address is stored in the adapter base unit through
interaction with the TCP/IP object. If a stored primary IP address is available,
the adapter uses that address. If a stored primary IP address is not available, then
the adapter uses BOOTP/DHCP to obtain an IP address.
The adapter transmits DHCP requests, but is able to process a BOOTP/DHCP
response from either a DHCP or BOOTP server. If the BOOTP/DHCP
request is unsuccessful, the secondary adapter module (that is, Module B),
attempts to obtain the primary module’s IP address through BOOTP/DHCP.
The adapters continue to attempt BOOTP/DHCP configuration until an IP
address is obtained, alternating between adapter Modules A and B. Once an
adapter module has obtained the IP address, the secondary module can use that
IP address + 1.
Once an adapter has a primary IP address, it confirms that it does not have a
duplicate IP address. See EtherNet/IP Modules in Logix5000 Control Systems,
publication ENET-UM001

Ethernet Topology
The 1715 Redundant I/O System supports DLR (Ring) and Star Topologies.
For a DLR (Ring) Topology, the adapter modules’ Ethernet ports are configured
with the outward-facing ports (Port 1 of Module A and Port 2 of Module B)
operating as a 2-port switch. Port 2 of Module A and Port 1 of Module B are
chained together.

For a STAR Topology, the adapter modules’ Ethernet ports are configured with
the leftmost ports (Port 1 of Module A and Port 1of Module B) operating as a
2-port switch. The rightmost ports on each adapter are left unused.

Communication on the EtherNet/IP Network
Communication to a simplex module is addressed to the slot number for that
module. CIP communication to modules in a duplex configuration (including
the adapter modules) are addressed to the lowest slot number for the module pair.
The adapter modules respond with CIP errors for attempts to communicate to
an I/O module of a type that is not the same as the physically installed module.
The termination assembly type (simplex/duplex) determines the CIP messages
for corresponding CIP objects that the adapter processes for each I/O module.
