Environment and Enclosure
ControlLogix ControlNet Interface Module 5
ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial environment, in
overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes
up to 2000 meters (6562 feet) 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 open-type equipment. It must be mounted within an
enclosure that is suitably designed for those specific environmental conditions that will
be present and appropriately designed to prevent personal injury resulting from
accessibility to live parts. The enclosure must have suitable flame-retardant properties to
prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2,
V1, V0 (or equivalent) if non-metallic. The interior of the enclosure must be accessible only
by the use of a tool. Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional
information regarding specific enclosure type ratings that are required to comply with
certain product safety certifications.
In addition to this publication, see:
Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, for additional installation
requirements, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1.
NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication 60529, as applicable, for
explanations of the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.
Prevent 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.
For additional information, refer to Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding
Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1.

6 ControlLogix ControlNet Interface Module
The ControlNet Interface Module and Redundant Media
Use the 1756-CN2 ControlLogix ControlNet series B module if
redundant media is not necessary. Applications requiring redundant
media must use the 1756-CN2R module.
Understanding Standalone and Redundant Control
You can use the 1756-CN2R series B modules for standalone or
redundant control. For standalone control, only one set of modules is
required. For redundant control, two ControlLogix chassis are
populated with identical pairs of modules called partners. The chassis
that performs active control is called the primary chassis and the
modules in the chassis are called primary modules. The other chassis
is called the secondary chassis and the modules in the chassis are
called secondary modules.
These installation instructions discuss both standalone and redundant
control; read them carefully to distinguish the procedures and
requirements for each type of control.
IMPORTANT
If you use redundant control, you must select the same ControlNet
network address for each set of partner modules (primary and
secondary). You must also place the partner modules in the same
corresponding slots in their respective redundant-control chassis
pair.
For more redundancy information, refer to the ControlLogix
Redundancy System User Manual, publication 1756-UM523F.

Use a small screwdriver to set the module’s network address
switches. For modules in a standalone chassis, you must specify a
unique ControlNet network address. You can select an address of
01...99 for modules in a standalone chassis. Address 00 is an invalid
ControlNet address.

7. Remove the module from the chassis.
8. Set the switches to their final value.
9. Replace the module in the chassis.
10. Apply power to the chassis.
Keeper Configuration - Automatic Keeper Crossload
The 1756-CN2 series B module is a keeper capable module. This
means that, if the module has a valid configuration and has the
lowest address among the keeper capable nodes on the network, it
becomes the Master Keeper. The Master Keeper is the node that
distributes network configuration information to other nodes as the
network is formed or as nodes are added to the network.
When the module is first removed from the box, or is reset to the
original factory settings, it will automatically attempt to crossload
configuration information from the current Master Keeper. If a Master
Keeper with a valid network configuration is present on the network,
the configuration crossload will succeed; no user configuration is
needed. However, if a Master Keeper does not exist, or does not have
a valid network configuration, you must use RSNetWorx for
ControlNet to download the network configuration information.
