About This Chapter
About the Modules
This chapter introduces POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O configurable modules with DeviceLogix capability.
About the Modules
Quick Start - Prepare the Modules to work on DeviceNet
Quick Start - Prepare the Modules to work on EtherNet/IP and
ControlNet
The POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O modules work with EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet and ControlNet network adapters. Each module has eight 24V DC I/O points that self-configure to be inputs or outputs. Inputs are IEC Type 3 and outputs are self-protecting 0.5 A outputs.
The firmware in these modules uses Version 3 of the DeviceLogix master library. The modules can execute 144 DeviceLogix function blocks in 3 ms. Smaller programs that contain fewer than 40 function blocks can be executed in 1 ms.
Each module produces 20 bytes of data including I/O state (eight bits), eight user-defined bits, and eight user-defined words of analog data to be consumed by processors or other DeviceLogix modules. Each module consumes 20 bytes of data to set the I/O state (eight bits), eight user-defined control bits, and eight user-defined words of analog data. It is also possible to consume the data from up to eight other peers.
This table lists 1734 and 1738 configurable I/O modules with DeviceLogix.

1738-8CFGDLXM8, 1738-8CFGDLXM12, and 1738-8CFGDLXM23
The ArmorPOINT I/O family consists of modular I/O modules. The sealed IP67 housing of these modules requires no enclosure. Note that environmental requirements other than IP67 may require an additional appropriate housing. I/O connectors are sealed M8 (pico), M12 (micro) or M23 styles. The mounting base ships with the module.
Modes of Usage
The module can be used in one of the following modes:
as a standard POINT I/O module,
in a stand alone DeviceLogix program where it controls its own I/O,
and
in network applications with or without the peer exchange of data.
Standard POINT I/O Module
The module can simply be used as an 8-point configurable POINT I/O module. It uses ODVA pre-defined Produce and Consume assemblies. Default settings help to facilitate quick setup right out-of-the-box. It is CIP network independent and it can run on DeviceNet, EtherNet/IP or ControlNet when used in conjunction with an adapter.
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
Page 13
Introduction 11
Stand Alone DeviceLogix
If DeviceLogix is enabled (programmed), then the module becomes the owner of its outputs. The DeviceLogix program reads inputs and controls the onboard outputs.
The produced assembly may be shared with a controller if a connection
exists.
As the owner of its local outputs, the module may run without an
external controller.
An external controller, which is the owner of the connection to the module, can influence the module’s logic via a consume assembly – both digital and analog data. Configuration of the module is performed via RSNetWorx for DeviceNet. When used on ControlNet or EtherNet/IP, the tool bridges through the adapter to directly communicate with the DeviceLogix module on the POINT I/O backplane.
Peer Enabled POINT I/O
The POINT I/O DeviceLogix module can “listen in” on data connections to other POINT I/O modules on the backplane. This data can be used in the DeviceLogix program to control the outputs. It can consume data from 8 different peers. The data from each peer can be up to 24 bytes long. The data can be digital, analog (16-bit), or a mixture. The module supports the “Auto Produce” parameter to produce I/O data automatically without the need for a master. It will also produce and consume network data. Configuration of peer data is performed via RSNetWorx.
See Chapter 6,
modules using RSNetworx for DeviceNet.

Parameters on the Configuration tab
Parameter Description
Off-to-On Delay This is the OFF to ON filter constant for all inputs on the module. A
high signal must be present for this amount of time before the module will report an ON.
The value must be entered in microseconds (μs). The default value is 1000 μs. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum is 65535 μs. The actual resolution of this value is milliseconds. The user selected value will be truncated at milliseconds. For example, 65535 μs represents a 65 ms filter value.
On-to-Off Delay This is the ON to OFF filter constant for all inputs on the module. A
low signal must be present for this amount of time before the module will report an OFF.
The value must be entered in microseconds (μs). the default value is 1000 μs. The minimum value is 0 and the maximum is 65535 μs. The actual resolution of this value is millisecond. User selected value will be truncated at milliseconds. For example, 65535 μs represents a 65 ms filter value.
Output Fault State
This parameter controls the action of each output during a communication fault. 0 = Go to Output Fault Value (default) 1 = Hold Last State This parameter is ignored if DLX Fault Override is enabled.
Output Fault Value
The state of each output if a communication fault occurs. This parameter is ignored if the Output Fault State is set to Hold Last State or if DLX Fault Override is enabled. 0 = OFF (default) 1 = ON
Output Idle State This parameter controls the action of each output when in Idle state
or Program mode. 0 = Go to Output Idle Value (default) 1 = Hold Last State This parameter is ignored if DLX Fault Override is enabled.
Output Idle Value The state of each output when in Idle state or Program mode. This
parameter is ignored if the Output Idle State is set to Hold Last State or if DLX Fault Override is enabled. 0 = OFF (default) 1 = ON
Auto Produce Enabling this parameter will allow the module to produce data
without a master. This parameter is disabled by default. If enabled, the module will begin to produce data on the backplane or network after power up and network address verification (Dup MAC check). The Owned bit in the produced assembly will be cleared (0). A master may still make a connection to the module and then the Owned bit will be set (1). If a master connection fails, the module will continue to produce data, but the Owned bit will be cleared (0). The produced assembly, EPR, and PIT are described later in this table. Auto Production may be important to support data to listening peers.

Parameters on the Configuration tab (Continued)
Parameter Description
DLX Dependent Mode
DLX Fault Override
Auto Produce Assembly
This parameter allows the logic in the module to be enabled or disabled according to the I/O connection status or the state of the owning processor. The default is disabled. If Dependent Mode is enabled, the DeviceLogix program will be disabled when the owning processor is in program mode. When the processor transitions to RUN, the logic will automatically be enabled.
When an output is being locally controlled, its state is either controlled by the DeviceLogix program or by the Fault/Idle states. Enabling this parameter allows the local logic to override the Fault/Idle states in the event of a communication fault or transition to Idle (Program) state. When this parameter is disabled (default) and a communication fault occurs or when in Idle (Program) state, all outputs, including those that are locally controlled, will go to the Fault/Idle states. Enabling this parameter and using the "Network Fault" status bit (Bus-off or Dup Mac Error) or COS/Cyclic Cnxn Idle/Fault bits in the DeviceLogix program, a controlled stop or maintenance of a machine state can be achieved when communication is lost with a master.
When the Auto produce parameter is enabled, this parameter selects which assembly to produce: 000: 20-byte assembly (default) 004: 1-byte assembly 101: 20-byte assembly 111: 8-byte assembly
For details on the contents of the assembly, see I/O Data Assembly
Maps in Chapter 4.
For the list of I/O tags, see I/O Tags
The 20-byte assembly contains all the data. The 8-byte assembly can be produced in one packet (non-fragmented).
Auto Produce EPR When the Auto Produce parameter is enabled, this parameter sets the
Expected Packet Rate. The units are milliseconds (ms). The default is 1000 ms. The maximum is 65535 ms and the minimum is 0 ms. When Auto Produce is enabled, the module produces data at every change of state (COS) or when the EPR timer expires.
Auto Produce PIT When the Auto Produce parameter is enabled, this parameter sets the
Product Inhibit Time. The units are milliseconds (ms). The default is 1 ms. The maximum is 65535 ms, and the minimum is 0 ms. If a Change of State occurs and the PIT has not expired, the message will wait until the PIT has expired. This can be used to prevent one module from using all the available network bandwidth.

Parameters on the Configuration tab (Continued)
Parameter Description
Peer #xx MacID There are eight (0…7) peer Mac ID parameters. Each one defines the
MacID or Slot Number of the peer from which this module will consume data. The default is "No Connection."
You can enter the MacID or Slot number, 0…63, or a relative offset from the address of the module (-4 to +4). Once a valid MacID is set, Peer Exists = 1 in DeviceLogix program.
See more details on peer configuration later in this chapter and in
Appendix A
.
Peer #xx Size There are eight (0…7) Peer Size parameters. Each one defines the
size in bytes of the message received from the peer. The default and maximum value is 24 bytes. The minimum is 1 byte. See Appendix A for peer message sizes of POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O modules.
If the received message size does not match the Peer Size value, the data will be considered invalid and the appropriate error bits will be set (Produced assembly: Peer Missing = 1. In DeviceLogix program: Peer Data valid = 0.) This parameter is ignored if the Peer MacID is set to "No Connection."
Peer #xx EPR There are eight (0…7) Peer EPR parameters. Each one defines the
Expected Packet Rate in milliseconds (ms) of the peer connection. If this module does not receive valid data from a peer for 4 times the EPR, the appropriate error bits will be set (Produced assembly: Peer Missing = 1. In DeviceLogix program: Peer Data Valid = 0.) The default value is 1000 ms. The maximum is 65535 ms and the minimum is 0 ms. This parameter is ignored if the Peer MacID is set to "No Connection."

This parameter should only be used in a DeviceNet system. It is used to set another POINT I/O or ArmorPoint I/O module to the right of this module to Autobaud (enable) or used to save the baud rate (disable).
This section will describe how to configure the POINT I/O and ArmorPoint I/O DeviceLogix module to consume data from peers. The POINT I/O DeviceLogix module can use data from other modules to affect the DeviceLogix program.
The module can perform the following functions:
Get Change-Of-State (COS) data from up to eight I/O modules or
peers.
Each peer can have up to 24 bytes of data.
Each peer has its own expected packet rate.
Each peer has its own status bit that can be used in logic.
The data from each peer can be digital (bit), analog (16-bit words), or a
mixture of both.
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
The following functions are not supported:
Make a connection.
Configure a peer.
Control outputs on a peer.
Listen to a peer that is on another network.
The module can only listen to peers on the backplane or local DeviceNet network.

You are highly encouraged to use the connection status bits to verify that the device is receiving valid data from the peer. They are located under the Status Input category of the "bit input" I/O tags.
In our example, "Peer#0 Data Valid" will be set to 1 when the POINT I/O DeviceLogix module is consuming data from the peer that is timely (which is, within the EPR timeout) and of the correct length. No other checking is done on the data by the module.
"Peer#0 Exists" is set to 1 when a peer connection has been configured.
Analog data can also be used in a peer connection. If a 1734-IE4C module is located in the third slot, you can configure the POINT I/O DeviceLogix module like this:
Parameter number
32 Peer#0 MacID Slot number 3 40 Peer#0 Size Input data size 12 bytes 66 Peer#0 EPR Expected packet rate 500 ms

To use the analog data from channel 2, click to place an analog bit input on the function block sheet in the DeviceLogix editor.
Channel 2 is mapped to Word 2. Select this as shown below. For help on mappings, see Appendix A
.
To use the Over-range bit of channel 1, you can use "bit input" I/O tag and select Peer#1, byte 9, bit 7.
Again, it is best to use the Peer Connection Status bits (Peer#1 Data Valid and Peer#1 Exists) to validate the data before using it.

If the POINT I/O DeviceLogix module is consuming data from a peer that has double precision analog data (32-bit), like the 1734-VHSC24, the data can be used in logic by addressing the high-word and low-word separately. By using math functions (multiply and add), the two words can be combined into one value.
Produce Data Without Using a Master
See Very High Speed Counter Input Modules
in Appendix A.
With the POINT I/O DeviceLogix module (and other DeviceLogix modules that support "ZIP"), you can send data to another listener without a network master to set up the connection.
The following parameters are used to configure this feature:
Parameter number
74 Auto Produce See page 50 75 Auto Produce EPR See page 51 76 Auto Produce PIT See page 51 99 Auto Produce
Parameter name Parameter
description
See page 51
Assembly
Default value
. Disabled . 1000 ms .1 ms . 20-byte produced
(default)
Soon after power-up and getting online, when Auto Produce is enabled, the POINT I/O DeviceLogix module begins producing change-of-state (COS) type I/O data on the connected network or backplane. It produces the selected "Auto Produce Assembly" at the selected "Auto Produce EPR" (Expected Packet Rate).
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
The Auto Produce Assembly data can be:
20 bytes of produced data (it sends all possible data)
8 bytes of produced data (this does not require the fragmentation
protocol, so it will reduce network bandwidth)
1 byte of produced data (only the state of the 8 I/O)
A description of these assemblies can be found in Chapter 4.
The Auto Produce EPR sets the cyclic rate at which data is produced if there is no change of I/O state. If there is a change of state, new data is produced immediately. If data changes often, to reduce change-of-state traffic on the network, you can increase the Auto Produce Production Inhibit Time (PIT). For example, if the PIT is set to 10 ms, the quickest the module can produce data is once every 10 ms even if there is a change of state.
Auto Produce is only recommended on a DeviceNet network in situations where a master is not required.

Configuring POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O DeviceLogix modules using RSNetworx for DeviceNet 59
Due to the fact that there is no master to verify the connection and the configuration of each module, it is recommended that the ZIP Security Key be produced in the data. This unique number is calculated using the identity of the module and the present configuration. The ZIP Security Key value is in the DeviceLogix Logic Editor, under the Analog Input I/O tags.
The output of the Analog Input I/O tag can be wired to the input of an Analog Output I/O tag to map it into the Produced Assembly Image:

In this example, the ZIP Security Key is mapped to Network Output Word 3.
Any module receiving this data should verify the constant value. For example:
The ZIP Security Key constant is added using the ellipses button of the NEQ function block. This output can be used to condition the execution of other function blocks using the Enable input.
Note that there could be an "unsigned value to signed value conversion" when the ZIP Security Key is displayed in the Logic Editor, which leads to a mismatch of displayed value. However, the value is consistent in HEX format.

Logic Execution Time
The execution time is dependent on the total number of function blocks used in the entire DeviceLogix program.
Number of Function Blocks Expected Execution Time (ms)
0…40 1 41…100 2 101…144 3
The module will execute the entire logic program before applying the outputs. The module follows these steps:
1. Sample all inputs (hardware, network, peer).
2. Execute logic.
3. Apply all outputs (hardware, network).

72 DeviceLogix Capabilities
If you are using the EtherNet/IP or ControlNet adapter, it is suggested that you use the COS/Cyclic connection status bits to determine the health of the connection with a master.
The following are the status bits for the eight Peer connections:
Peer#X Data valid
Peer#X Exists
Use the Exists bits to determine if a connection is configured, and the Data Valid bit to check if the data from the peer has been received in the expected time (EPR) and with the expected data size.
Network
Network Input 0 through Network Input 7 are sent to the DeviceLogix program through the Output Data assembly byte 1. In RSLogix 5000, the tag name for these bits is UserDefinedBitData.
Reserved Bit 8 through Reserved Bit 31 are legacy bits and should not be used.
There are many Peer#X (Byte X Bit X) bits. This is a mapping of 24-byte bit data for the eight peer connections. You need to know the Input Memory map of each of the peers in order to use this data. See Appendix A
.

Analog Inputs to Function Blocks
When the Analog Input I/O tag connector is added to the DeviceLogix editor, the following options are available.
Network Analog Input
Network Input Word 0 through Network Input Word 7 are sent to the DeviceLogix program through the Output Assembly. In RSLogix500, the tag name for these words is UserDefinedWordData[0..7].
The ZIP Security Key defines a unique number that can be sent to a peer to verify the identity and configuration of the module. The ZIP key can be directly tied to a Network Output Word in the DeviceLogix program.
Peer#x (Word x)
There are eight groups of peer data (0…7) and 12 words within each group. These are the eight peers and up to 24 bytes of data mapped from each peer. You need to know the input data map from each peer to know what data to use. See Appendix A
.

Digital Outputs from Function Blocks
Hardware
Discrete Output 0 through Discrete Output 7 are the eight hardware outputs available on the module. If these tags are unused (that is, not mapped in the DeviceLogix program), then there is a virtual mapping from the Data Byte Output Assembly to the output point. This means that the output is under control of the owning processor. If the Discrete Output is mapped in logic, it is controlled by the module.

Enable Line feature
The Enable Line feature can be supported by each instruction type in the Function Block Editor. When an instruction supports the Enable Line feature, that particular instruction can only be executed when Enable Line is on; otherwise, that instruction maintains the data from the last data scan. In this manner, functions can be executed conditionally based on the state of the Enable input. Under normal conditions, the Enable output will have the same value as the input, passing the enable information to the next instruction. Certain error conditions that occur within the processing of a function block may cause the Enable output to go false.
If the Enable Line feature is used, EnableIn can be connected to an input I/O tag or the output of another function block. The EnableIn input will retain the value of the source that it is bound to.
If the Enable Line feature is not needed, the EnableIn input can use a constant value which can be set on each instruction’s property page. By default, this constant will allow execution of the function.

Offline and Online Editing
Editing of the configuration and DeviceLogix program can be done off-line and saved in the DNT file created by RSnetWorx for DeviceNet. The changes, however, must be manually downloaded to the module while online. When using RSLogix 5000 with an EtherNet/IP or ControlNet adapter, the forward open to the DeviceLogix module does not contain any configuration information. The configuration must be sent via RSNetWorx for DeviceNet while online.

RSNetWorx for DeviceNet
Online
Module
The I/O module will save the configuration and DeviceLogix program locally (inside the module). You will only need to download the configuration once. If you replace the device, you need to download the configuration to the new module.
Before the DeviceLogix program executes, it must be enabled. You can do this using the Editor while online. For details, see Enable/Disable Logic
. Alternatively, you can use the owning processor to enable the program. For details, see Messaging
.

Enable/Disable Logic
For logic to execute, it must be enabled. While editing online with RSNetWorx for DeviceNet, you can enable logic.
Logic Enable On
Use the Logic Enable On function to notify the device to start processing the stored logic diagram. To set Logic Enable On, select Communications > Logic Enable On.
Logic Enable Off
Use the Logic Enable Off option to notify the device to stop executing the logic program. When you select this option, the device enters an idle state, turning off the Logic Enable Bit in the produced data. The Logic Enable bit in the Produced I/O assembly of the device reflects a 0 or 1 for Logic Enable Off or Logic Enable On. To set Logic Enable Off, select Communications > Logic Enable Off.
Dependent Mode
Logic will also be enabled or disabled if the Dependent Mode parameter is Enabled. In this case, logic will execute following the state of the owning connection. When the connection is in RUN, the logic is enabled. When the connection is in Idle, Fault, or non-existent, logic is disabled.
You can also enable or disable logic through explicit messages from the owning controller. See Messaging
.

Messaging
There are certain parameters that you may want to SET or READ from the module that are not part of the I/O Assemblies. Those parameters are still available through messaging.
This section contains advanced user information. You should understand the CIP object model and be familiar with the terms Service, Class, Instance, and Attribute.
This section discusses how to SET and READ information from the Timer and Counter function blocks and how to enable and disable logic with the Logic Supervisor Object.
The first thing that is important to know is that each function block has a handle or an instance number. This instance number is assigned by the editor, it can be found in the upper left corner of the function block.
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
Function block instances
The instance number can change if you edit the program. It may also be different from module to module – be very careful to verify the instance number before using messaging.
To access the information, you need the “address” of that information. The address is made up of the Class Code, the instance (as discussed above), and the attribute.

88 Troubleshooting
Troubleshooting Scenarios
The following are scenarios you may encounter while using the modules.
Peer connection is not working
If the Network Status LED is flashing red, one or more connections to the device are broken or not functioning properly. If the device has been configured to consume data from peers, it is possible that the data size or data rate have not been configured correctly.
Use the Peer Missing bits in the I/O assembly to check which peer
connection is missing.
Verify the configuration is correct. Upload from the module into
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet.
Verify the Node number or Slot number is correct.
Verify the connection size is correct.
Increase the EPR (Expected Packet Rate).
Verify that the owner of the connection to the peer (usually a scanner or
controller) is receiving data. The DeviceLogix module cannot make a connection to a peer; it can only listen to COS (Change-of-State) I/O data going from the peer to the master.
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
Page 91
Troubleshooting 89
Configuration or DeviceLogix program cannot be downloaded to the module
A DeviceLogix program and most configurable parameters cannot be changed while the DeviceLogix program is running or when an I/O connection is active.
Inhibit the connection in RSLogix 5000 (if using EtherNet/IP and
ControlNet).
Disable logic in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet before downloading.
Allen-Bradley HMIs
Publication 1734-UM015A-EN-E - November 2009
Page 92
90 Troubleshooting
Clear the Node Active check box in RSNetWorx for DeviceNet (if
using a DeviceNet scanner or DeviceNet adapter).
Module’s DeviceLogix program exits the Run mode unexpectedly
The module’s DeviceLogix program exits the Run mode unexpectedly. A possible reason may be that the ADR feature of the scanner is turned on and the ADR data of the module stored in the scanner is not consistent with what is on the module. When the scanner establishes connection to the module, it will verify the configuration in itself with what is in the module. Any mismatch would result in the scanner downloading its saved ADR data to the module.
Check the ADR feature of the network scanner and verify if the
configuration stored in the scanner is the most recent and correct version.

About This Appendix
Peer I/O Sizes
This appendix contains information to help you use peer data from POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O modules in your DeviceLogix program. For descriptions or details on the individual modules, refer to the Installation Instructions or User Manual for the specific modules.
The following tables list the produced I/O sizes of the digital and analog input modules, including those of the POINT I/O and ArmorPOINT I/O modules.
Only the input modules are listed below. The data sent to or consumed by output modules cannot be used in Peer data connections. Although it is possible to read the status information produced from some output modules, they are not included here for the sake of brevity. If another module’s output data is required in your DeviceLogix program, it is suggested that this data be sent from the owning master to the DeviceLogix module through the output (consumed) data assembly.
