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 information, circuits, equipment, or software described in this manual.

System Overview
Chapter

Overview
Pico is an electronic control relay with built-in logic, timer, counter,
and real-time clock functions. Pico is a control and input device that
can perform a variety of tasks in building and machine applications.
Pico is programmed using ladder diagrams. Each programming
element is entered directly via the Pico display. For example, you can:
• connect make and break contacts in series and in parallel,
• connect output relays and markers,
• define outputs as relays, flip-flop relays or latching relays,
• select timing relays with different functions,
• assign eight up and down counters,
• display text with variables,
• track the flow of current in the program, and
• load, save and password-protect programs.
Most controllers also offer a real-time clock, allowing up to 32
separate on and off times.
The dc versions can receive analog signals at two inputs and evaluate
the signals with eight analog comparators.
If you prefer to program Pico from a PC, use PicoSoft programming
software. PicoSoft allows you to create and test your programs on the
PC. It also enables you to print out your programs in DIN, ANSI or
Pico format.

System Overview 1-5
Expansion modules connect directly to the Pico controller as shown
below.
Electrical isolation is provided between the Pico
controller and the expansion module as follows:
• Basic Isolation: 400V ac (+10%)
• Reinforced Isolation 240V ac (+10%)
(1)
(2)
The controller and expansion units may be
destroyed if the potential between them exceeds the
Basic Isolation value provided. This may cause your
entire system or machine to malfunction.
(1) Basic Insulation - An insulation system which provides a minimal level of protection against electric shock up to
a stated voltage level. Refer to EN 61131-2 for additional information.
(2) Reinforced Insulation - An insulation system comprised of basic and supplemental insulation. This provides
protection against electric shock up to a stated voltage level and is tolerant of a single fault. Refer to EN
61131-2 for additional information.
TIP
The Pico controller and the expansion module can
be of different voltage types.

See Expansion Modules on page 1-4 for information on using the
modules with your Pico controller.
Mount the Pico Controller
Install Pico in an enclosure, switch cabinet, or distribution board so
that the power feed and terminal connections cannot be touched
accidentally during operation.
Clip Pico onto a DIN rail or install directly onto a panel using the
mounting feet. Pico can be mounted either vertically or horizontally.
TIP
When using a Pico expansion module, connect the
expansion module and Pico controller together
before mounting. See Connect the Expansion
Module.

2-4 Installation
Minimum Spacing
Maintain spacing from enclosure walls, wireways, adjacent equipment,
etc. Allow 3 cm (1.18 in.) of space on all sides for adequate
ventilation, as shown:
3 cm (1.18 in.)

3 cm (1.18 in.)
DIN Rail Mount
1. Mount your DIN rail. Make sure that the placement of the Pico
unit on the DIN rail meets the recommended spacing
requirements.
2. Hook the top slot over the DIN rail.
3. While pressing the Pico unit down against the top of the rail,
snap the bottom of the unit into position. Ensure DIN latches are
in the up (secured) position.
Pico can be mounted vertically on a DIN rail in the same manner.
