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.ab.com/manuals/gi) 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

How to Handle ControlLogix Components
ATTENTION
Preventing 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.
Install the Module
WARNING
When you insert or remove the module while backplane power
is on, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion
in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous
before proceeding. Repeated electrical arcing causes excessive
wear to contacts on both the module and its mating connector.
Worn contacts may create electrical resistance that can affect
module operation.
You can install or remove this module while chassis power and field-side
power are on.

1. Align the circuit board with
the top and bottom guides of

Connect the Fiber Optic Cables
ATTENTION
You must give a unique address to each drive on the SERCOS
ring. If you give 2 drives the same address on the same ring, both
drives respond to commanded motion. This could injure people
or damage equipment.
ATTENTION
Under certain conditions, viewing the optical port may expose
the eye to hazard. When viewed under some conditions, the
optical port may expose the eye beyond the maximum
permissible exposure recommended in ANSI Z136.2, 1993.
ControlLogix SERCOS interface modules use fiber optics that are rated Class
1 for IEC LED safety classification. Under most viewing conditions, there is
no eye hazard.

Care and Handling of Fiber Optic Cables
ATTENTION
When you handle these components, take normal
precautions to prevent damage and/or degradation by
electrostatic discharge (ESD). The small junction size of
these components increases their susceptibility to damage
from ESD.
Good system performance depends on clean port optics and cable ferrules,
which keeps dust and small particles from blocking the optic path.
• When cables are not in use, keep the ends covered with the dust
covers that came with the cables.
• To clean the ends of the cables, use either:
– compressed air
– one of the following cleaners on a lint and strand free cotton swab:
For more information about the care, handling, and installation of fiber optic
cables see the Fiber Optic Cable Installation and Handling Instructions, publication
number 2090-IN010x-EN-P.

Environment and Enclosure Information
ATTENTION
Environment and Enclosure
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 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
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.
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.
