Important User Information
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 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/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.

Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage Category II
applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes
up to 2000 meters without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial
equipment according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without
appropriate precautions, there may be potential difficulties
ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments
due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
This equipment is supplied as ‘enclosed’ equipment. It should
not require additional system enclosure when used in locations
consistent with the enclosure type ratings stated in the
Specifications section of this publication. Subsequent sections of
this publication may contain additional information regarding
specific enclosure type ratings, beyond what this product
provides, that are required to comply with certain product safety
certifications.
NOTE: See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC
publication 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees
of protection provided by different types of enclosure. Also, see
the appropriate sections in this publication, as well as the
Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1 (Industrial Automation
Wiring and Grounding Guidelines), for additional installation
requirements pertaining to this equipment.

ATTENTION
Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
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.
• If available, use a static-safe workstation.
• When not in use, store the equipment in appropriate
static-safe packaging.
About the ArmorPoint PROFIBUS Adapter
The ArmorPoint PROFIBUS adapter ships with the adapter and a
terminating base to be used with the last I/O module on the backplane. The
sealed IP67 housing of the adapter requires no enclosure. Note that it is
possible that environmental requirements other than IP67 will require an
additional appropriate housing. PROFIBUS connectors are sealed M12
(micro) style.

Mount the Adapter and I/O Bases
To mount the ArmorPoint adapter on a wall or panel, use the screw holes
provided in the ArmorPoint adapter.
Drilling Dimensions
To install the mounting base:
1. Layout the required points as shown in the Drilling Dimensions
drawing.
2. Drill the necessary holes for #8 (M4) machine or self-tapping screws.
3. Mount the adapter using #8 (M4) screws.
4. Ground the system using the ground lug connection in the I/O bases.
Note that the ground lug connection is also a mounting hole.
5. Mount the terminating base that was shipped with the adapter as the
last base in the backplane instead of the base that was shipped with
the I/O module.

Set the Station Address
To set the station address, adjust the switches on the front of the module
(refer to the Module Identification illustration). Use a small blade screwdriver
to rotate the switches. Line up the small notch on the switch with the number
setting you wish to use. The two switches are most significant digit (MSD) and
least significant digit (LSD). Valid address are from 01 to 99. The module
reads the switches only when power is applied.
