About the Fieldbus Linking Device
The FOUNDATION Fieldbus Linking Device bridges from the Ethernet
network to H1 networks. It accepts either High-speed Ethernet (HSE) or
EtherNet/IP messages and converts them to the H1 protocol. By supporting
H1, HSE, and EtherNet/IP protocols, the linking device is capable of
providing bridging capability of Rockwell Automation products and
OUNDATION Fieldbus products on the Ethernet network to products on H1
F
links.

ATTENTION
This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2 industrial
environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC
60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 m (6562 ft) without derating.
This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according
to IEC/CISPR 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be difficulties
with electromagnetic compatibility in residential and other environments due
to conducted and radiated disturbances.
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

Before You Begin
The following software is compatible with this revision of the linking device:
• RSFieldbus software, version 2.03 or later
• RSLogix 5000 programming software, version 16.03 or later
• RSLinx Classic software, version 2.52 or later
• Logix5000 Clock Update tool
Install the Linking Device
Install your linking device by using the instructions on the following pages.
Mount the Linking Device
Most applications require installation in an industrial enclosure (Pollution
Degree 2) to reduce the effects of electrical interference (Over Voltage
Category II) and environmental exposure. Locate your linking device as far as
possible from power lines, load lines, and other sources of electrical noise
such as hard-contact switches, relays, and AC motor drives. For more
information on proper grounding guidelines, see the Industrial Automation
Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, publication 1770-4.1
• We do not recommend vertical mounting due to heat build-up
considerations.
• Be careful of metal chips when drilling mounting holes for your linking
device or other equipment within the enclosure or panel. Drilled
fragments that fall into the unit could cause damage.

Mount on a DIN Rail
The linking device DIN-rail latch locks in the open position so that the
linking device can be easily attached to or removed from the DIN rail. The
maximum extension of the latch is 15 mm (0.67 in.) in the open position. You
need a screwdriver to remove the linking device. The linking device can be
mounted to 35 x 7.5 or 35 x 15 DIN rails (EN 50 022). See page 10
DIN-rail mounting dimensions.
This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc
plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding. The use of
other DIN rail materials (for example, aluminum or plastic) that can corrode,
oxidize, or are poor conductors can result in improper or intermittent
grounding. Secure DIN rail to the mounting surface approximately every
200 mm (7.8 in.) and use end-anchors appropriately.

Do these steps to install your linking device on the DIN rail.
1. Verify that the placement of the linking device on the DIN rail allows

WARNING
Wire the Linking Device
Wire your linking device by using these instructions.
• If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side 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.
• When you change switch settings while 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.

Ethernet Connection
If you connect or disconnect the communication cable with power applied to
this module or any device on the network, 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
Connect your Ethernet cable to the Ethernet port on the underside of the
linking device. The factory default for the linking device is Dynamic Host
Configuration Protocol (DHCP) for initial configuration.
H1 Terminal Block
When you connect or disconnect the removable terminal block (RTB) with
field-side power applied, 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.
Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into the linking
device could cause damage.
The H1 terminal plugs are keyed so they fit only into the corresponding
socket. Be certain that you are connecting the cables to the correct plugs.
The linking device provides two parallel terminals on each H1 network. Use
one to connect to your fieldbus devices and use the other for short-term
connection of diagnostic devices.
Perform the following steps to connect the H1 cables.
1. Strip about 5…7 mm (0.2…0.28 in.) of the insulation at the ends of
the cable leads.
2. Insert the stripped cable end into the RTB, following the layout on

Configure the Linking Device
The following instructions describe how to configure and set up network
parameters for your linking device.
Assign an IP Address
The Rockwell Automation BOOTP/DHCP Server (BOOTP) is a standalone
program that combines the functionality of standard BOOTP software with
DHCP software. The linking device is shipped with DHCP enabled.
To configure the linking device by using BOOTP, perform the
following steps.
1. Choose Start > Programs > Rockwell Software > BOOTP-DHCP
Server 2.3.2 Standalone > BOOTP-DHCP Server 2.3.2 Standalone.
BOOTP opens and the linking device sends a request.
2. Verify that the linking device is the correct device by matching the
MAC address with the MAC address found on the label of the linking
device (under the barcode).

Reset Configuration
The Reset Configuration removes power from the battery, clearing all
downloaded fieldbus configurations. The linking device retains its network
configuration and web page password information through this reset.
Do these steps to reset configuration.
1. Remove power from the linking device.
If you insert or remove the jumper while the power is on, an electrical arc can
occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations. Be
sure the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
2. Move the jumper from its original position (two right pins) to the two
left pins.
3. Wait 5 seconds.
4. Move the jumper back to its original position.
5. Return power to the linking device.
Reset to Factory Default
The factory-default reset sets the linking device’s network configuration to use
BOOTP, erases web page password information, and clears all downloaded
fieldbus configurations. Follow these steps to complete a factory-default reset.
1. Verify that the linking device is powered up and in a running state
