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.

Environment and Enclosure
ATTENTION
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
installation requirements, Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1
• NEMA Standards 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of
the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.

To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), all connections to this
equipment must be powered from a source compliant with safety extra low
voltage (SELV) or protected extra low voltage (PELV).
To comply with UL restrictions, all connections to this equipment must be
powered from a source compliant with Class 2 or limited voltage/current.

area is known to be nonhazardous.
• Do not disconnect connections to
this equipment unless power has
been removed or the area is known
to be nonhazardous. Secure any
external connections that mate to
this equipment by using screws,
sliding latches, threaded
connectors, or other means
provided with this product.

ATTENTION
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
for 50 mm (2 in.) of space on all sides for adequate ventilation.
2. Hook the top slot over the DIN rail.
