Use of the Common
Industrial Protocol (CIP)
Understand the Producer/
Consumer Model
The 1732E-IB8M8SOER and 1732E-OB8M8SR modules use the Common
Industrial Protocol (CIP). CIP is the application layer protocol specified for
EtherNet/IP, the Ethernet Industrial Protocol. It is a message-based protocol that
implements a relative path to send a message from the “producing” device in a
system to the “consuming” devices.
The producing device contains the path information that steers the message along
the proper route to reach its consumers. Because the producing device holds this
information, other devices along the path simply pass this information; they do
not need to store it.
This has two significant benefits:
• You do not need to configure routing tables in the bridging modules,
which greatly simplifies maintenance and module replacement.
• You maintain full control over the route taken by each message, which
enables you to select alternative paths for the same end device.
The CIP “producer/consumer” networking model replaces the old source/
destination (“master/slave”) model. The producer/consumer model reduces
network traffic and increases speed of transmission. In traditional I/O systems,
controllers poll input modules to obtain their input status. In the CIP system,
input modules are not polled by a controller. Instead, they produce their data
either upon a change of state (CoS) or periodically. The frequency of update
depends upon the options chosen during configuration and where on the
network the input module resides. The input module, therefore, is a producer of
input data and the controller is a consumer of the data.
The controller can also produce data for other controllers to consume. The
produced and consumed data is accessible by multiple controllers and other
devices over the EtherNet/IP network. This data exchange conforms to the
producer/consumer model.
Specify the Requested
Packet Interval (RPI)
2Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 2014
The Requested Packet Interval (RPI) is the update rate specified for a particular
piece of data on the network. This value specifies how often to produce the data
for that device. For example, if you specify an RPI of 50 ms, it means that every
About ArmorBlock Modules Chapter 1
50 ms the device sends its data to the controller or the controller sends its data to
the device.
RPIs are only used for devices that exchange data. For example, a ControlLogix
EtherNet/IP bridge module in the same chassis as the controller does not require
an RPI because it is not a data-producing member of the system; it is used only as
a bridge to remote modules.

.
Introduction to CIP Sync
CIP is the Common Industrial Protocol that we use to let all
Rockwell Automation products communicate with each other whether it be on a
DeviceNet, ControlNet, and/or an EtherNet network. Since it is an ODVA
standard, other industrial product manufacturers develop products to
communicate via the CIP protocol.
CIP Sync is a CIP implementation of the IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time
Protocol) in which devices can bridge the PTP time across backplanes and on to
other networks via EtherNet/IP ports.
What is IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time Protocol)?
The IEEE 1588 standard specifies a protocol to synchronize independent clocks
running on separate nodes of a distributed measurement and control system to a
high degree of accuracy and precision. The clocks communicate with each other
over a communication network. In its basic form, the protocol is intended to be
administration free. The protocol generates a master slave relationship among the
clocks in the system. Within a given subnet of a network there will be a single
master clock. All clocks ultimately derive their time from a clock known as the
grandmaster clock. This is called Precision Time Protocol (PTP).
The PTP is a time-transfer protocol defined in the IEEE 1588-2008 standard
that allows precise synchronization of networks, for example, Ethernet. Accuracy
within the nanosecond range can be achieved with this protocol when using
hardware generated synchronization.
IEEE 1588 is designed for local systems requiring very high accuracies beyond
those attainable using Network Time Protocol (NTP). NTP is used to
synchronize the time of a computer client or server to another server or reference
time source, such as a GPS.
CIP Sync Support
CIP Sync supports the IEEE 1588-2008 synchronization standard. In this
architecture, a grandmaster clock provides a master time reference for the system
time. The 1732E-IB8M8SOER, 1732E-OB8M8SR modules are CIP Sync slave
Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 20147
Chapter 2 Module Overview and Features
only devices. There must be another module on the network that will function as
a master clock. The grandmaster could be:
• a 1756 ControlLogix L6 or L7 controller when using RSLogix 5000
software v18 or later.
• an Ethernet bridge that supports IEEE 1588 V2, or
• a Symmetricom Grand Master GPS or equivalent.
What is CIP Sync?
CIP Sync is a CIP implementation of the IEEE 1588 PTP (Precision Time
Protocol). CIP Sync provides accurate real-time (Real-World Time) or Universal
Coordinated Time (UTC) synchronization of controllers and devices connected
over CIP networks. This technology supports highly distributed applications
that require time stamping, sequence of events recording, distributed motion
control, and increased control coordination.
What is Time Stamping?
Each input has its own individual timestamp recorded for both ON and OFF
transitions. The offset from the timestamp to the local clock is also recorded so
that steps in time can be detected and resolved.
Timestamping uses the 64-bit system time whose time base is determined by the
modules master clock resolved in microseconds. Each timestamp is updated as
soon as an input transition is detected, before input filtering occurs. When
filtering is enabled, the transition is only recorded if the transition passes the
filter.
The module starts timestamping as soon as it powers up, even if it is not
synchronized to a master clock. If it is synchronized to a master clock and then
becomes unsynchronized it continues to time stamp. All time stamps and offsets
have a value of zero at power-up.
For more information on how to use CIP Sync technology, see the Integrated
Architecture and CIP Sync Configuration Application Technique publication

Introduction to the
Sequence of Events Input
Module
8Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 2014
The 1732E-IB8M8SOER is an input module that offers sub-millisecond
timestamping on a per point basis in addition to providing the basic ON/OFF
detection. It supports two modes of operation: Per Point Mode and FIFO (First
In First Out) Mode. To learn more about using the modules in these modes of
operation, see Operational Modes on page 68.
Module Overview and Features Chapter 2
All input point event times are recorded and returned in a single buffer. The
module returns two 64-bit timestamps for each input, thus allowing:
• ON and OFF events for each point to be displayed simultaneously in the
input data.
• ladder logic not being explicitly required to see events, although needed to
archive events.
• events to be kept in the controller memory during remote power loss thus
eliminating data loss.
All inputs on the module can be filtered for both ON to OFF and OFF to ON
transitions. The timestamp for a filtered input will be the time of the initial
transition to the new state and not the time that the filter validates the event as
real.
Selective Event Capturing allows particular events to be disabled per input and
per transition, ON to OFF or OFF to ON.
Event latching ensures that events are not overwritten. A single transition in each
direction is recorded per point. Any new event, which occurs after the point has
captured a timestamp, is dropped until the stored events have been
acknowledged.
If latching is not enabled in point mode, new events will overwrite old events
when they are received. In FIFO mode, up to 256 events per input will be
buffered before events are overwritten. Thus, if inputs are changing rapidly it may
be possible that events will be lost either in the module or the controller prior to
an event being operated on by ladder logic.
When events are lost, either old ones being overwritten or new ones being
ignored due to latching, an EventOverflow bit will be set for each point that loses
an event. The EventOverflow bit will clear when the blocking events for that
point are acknowledged.
Timestamping is a feature that registers a time reference to a change in input
data. For the 1732E-IB8M8SOER, the time mechanism used for timestamping is
(PTP) system time. The 1732E-IB8M8SOER module is a PTP slave-only device.
There must be another module on the network that functions as a master clock.
High Performance Sequence of Events Applications in the Logix
Architecture
Sequence of Events (SOE) applications span a wide range of industry
applications. Typically any event that needs to be compared against a second
event can be classified as SOE.
• Used on discrete machines to identify failure points
• Used in Power Substations or power plants to indicate first fault
conditions
Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 20149
Chapter 2 Module Overview and Features
• Used in SCADA applications to indicate pump failures or other discrete
events
• Used in motion control applications to increase control coordination.
• Used in high speed applications
• Used in Global Position Registration
In today's environment, specifications for SOE applications typically require 1 ms
or better resolution on timestamps. There are two types of SOE applications.
• First Fault – measures the time between events with no correlation to
events outside of that system.
• Real Time – captures the time of an event occurrence as it relates to some
master clock. Typically this is a GPS, NTP server or some other very
accurate clock source. This method allows distributed systems to capture
events and build a history of these events. These events are almost always
digital, however some are analog for which lower performance
requirements can be configured.
First Fault Detection
An example of first fault detection would be intermittent failure from a sensor on
a safety system faults a machine and halts production cascading a flood of other
interrelated machine faults. Traditional fault detection or alarms may not appear
in the correct timed order of actual failure making root cause of the down time
difficult or impossible.
Time Stamped I/O
High precision timestamps on I/O allows very accurate first fault detection
making it easy to identify the initial fault that caused machine down time.
Common Time base for Alarming System logs user interaction as well as alarm
events using common time reference.
The power industry requires sub 1 ms accuracy on first fault across geographically
dispersed architecture.
High Speed Applications
Packaging machines or sorters that have fast part cycles are often bottlenecked by
controller scan times. By switching to a time-based solution, you can remove
many scan time critical components of the system. This programming technique
allows you to do predictive events and schedule outputs to run things like
diverters without having a scan time to match the part cycle time.
10Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 2014
Module Overview and Features Chapter 2
IMPORTANT
Motion Control
CIP Sync also provides a common time reference for distributed VFD drives,
servos, and controllers throughout the system. This allows controllers to request
axes, reach a pre-defined position at a known time reference, or run at a set speed
using the same reference. Since all drives and controllers in the system have the
same reference to time, the controller can issue simple requests for axes to reach
target positions in a synchronized fashion.
Global Position Registration
Registration refers to a function usually performed by the drive where a physical
input is triggered causing the drive to precisely capture the actual axis position
when the input event occurred. Rather than wiring inputs to the registration
input on all of the drives, this time-based system lets you wire an input to only
one time based SOE input module. The timestamp returned for that input, can
be used by the motion planner to calculate the actual axis position at the time the
input triggered. This simplifies system installation, reduces wiring costs, and
provides a global machine registration for all the axes in the system thru one SOE
input.
Introduction to Scheduled
Output Module
The 1732E-OB8M8SR Scheduled Output module is designed to work in
conjunction with the MAOC motion instruction to provide position-based
output control (also known as PLS). The MAOC instruction by itself allows
position-based output control using the position of any motion axis in
ControlLogix as the position reference and any output or boolean as the output.
The MAOC updates the outputs based on motion axis position at the motion
group coarse update rate (typically 2…10 ms). While this is adequate for some
applications, it is too slow for many high speed applications typically found in
converting and packaging segments. The 1732E-OB8M8SR module improves
performance by supporting the ability to schedule the output turn-on/turnoff time of its 8 outputs (outputs 0…7) in 1 µs increments. Outputs are
scheduled by entering data into one or more of the 16 schedules provided by the
output connection data store.
When using the 1732E-OB8M8SR module with the MAOC instruction,
make sure you use the default Communication Format for the module,
that is, Schedule Output Data Per Point. If you change the
Communication Format when the module is used with an MAOC
instruction, an error may result.
Operation
This scheduled output implementation schedules outputs on a per point basis
and each individual output point is controlled by its own timestamp.
Rockwell Automation Publication 1732E-UM003B-EN-E - March 201411
Chapter 2 Module Overview and Features
Individual schedules are created in the controller, stored in the output image table
for the module, and sent over the backplane to the Scheduled Output module.
The schedule specifies a sequence count, the output point to be associated with
the schedule, the time at which an output value should be applied to the physical
output point, and the value to be applied at the scheduled time. The I/O module
receives and stores the schedule. The CIPSync time of each schedule is monitored
by the module. When a schedule has expired, that is the current time, matches the
scheduled timestamp, the output value is then applied to the corresponding
output bit. Timer hardware in the ASIC is used to optimize the scheduling
algorithm. This hardware also reduces the latency and jitter performance. Status
of each schedule is reported in the output echo connection and reflected in the
input image for the module.
The scheduled output functionality relies on CIPSync time. Unused outputs may
be used as normal outputs and are applied immediately rather than waiting for
the CIPSync time to expire. A mask is sent to the module to indicate which
outputs are to function as normal outputs. The scheduled output module
supports up to 8 outputs that can be individually scheduled. The scheduled
outputs must be between output points 0 and 7. The 1732E-OB8M8SR module
supports up to 16 schedules with two schedules per output. Outputs that are not
“scheduled” are used as normal output points. A mask is used to indicate which
points are scheduled and which points are unscheduled. Jitter performance is less
than 25 µs. All of the scheduling configuration is done through the MAOC
instruction.
If a new schedule as indicated by a change in the sequence count is received by the
I/O module before the current schedule has expired, the current schedule is
overwritten. This mechanism can be used to cancel currently active schedule.
Status bits returned in the output echo connection may be used to determine the
current state of each schedule and to trigger corresponding event tasks.
If a new schedule is sent by the controller and the CIPSync time has already past,
the output is asserted until the CIPSync time has completely wrapped around.
The module does not check for an expired CIPSync time.
WARNING: If the time between two schedules is less than the
minimum schedule interval (for example, 100 µs), then deviation occurs.
This means that even though two outputs are scheduled at different
times (for example, time 90 and time 110), they both activate at the
same time (for example, time 90). The minimum schedule interval should
not be set to faster than 100 µs.
High Speed Product Reject
In a control system you can program a scheduled output module, which can
trigger multiple outputs simultaneously or trigger a reject at the precise point a
product is at the reject station.

By using time to schedule the output in advance,and identifying when the
product will be at a known position, hitting the exact point when a part is in front
of a reject station on a high speed packaging machine, can be controlled.

To install the module:
• Set the network address
• Mount the module
• Connect the I/O, Network, and Auxiliary cables to 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:
• adjust the node address switches on the front of the module.
• use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, such as
Rockwell Automation BootP/DHCP.
• retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.
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.

Mount the Module in High Vibration Areas
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 0.68 Nm (6 lb-in.).

Use the 1585D–M4DC–H: Polyamide small body unshielded mating
connectors for the D-Code M12 female network connector.
Note that the distance between the center of each Ethernet
connector is 16.2 mm (see dimensions on page 18).
Rockwell Automation recommends the use of suitable cable based
on this measurement. Some of the recommended cables are 1585DM4TBJM-x and 1585D-M4TBDM-x for daisychains.
Use two twisted pair CAT5E UTP or STP cable.
ATT ENTI ON: Make sure all connectors and caps are securely
tightened to properly seal the connections against leaks and maintain
IP enclosure type requirements.
