Programming
Communication Options
Programming the MicroLogix 1100 controller is done using RSLogix 500,
Revision 7.0 or later. To use all of the latest features, RSLogix 500
programming software must be version 7.20.00 or later. Communication
cables for programming are available separately from the controller and
software.
The MicroLogix 1100 controllers provide two communications ports, an
isolated combination RS-232/485 communication port (Channel 0) and an
Ethernet port (Channel 1).
The isolated Channel 0 port on the MicroLogix 1100 can be connected to the
following:
• operator interfaces, personal computers, etc. using DF1 Full Duplex
point-to-point
• a DH-485 network
• a DF1 Radio Modem network
• a DF1 half-duplex network as an RTU Master or RTU Slave
• a Modbus network as an RTU Master or RTU Slave
• an ASCII network
• a DeviceNet network as a slave or peer using a DeviceNet Interface
(catalog number 1761-NET-DNI)
• an Ethernet network using the Ethernet Interface module (catalog
number 1761-NET-ENI, or 1761-NET-ENIW)
(1)
When connecting to a DH-485 network, DF1 half-duplex network
or a
Modbus network, the MicroLogix 1100 can be connected directly via Channel
0 (without an Advanced Interface Converter, catalog number
1761-NET-AIC). The Channel 0 combo port provides both RS-232 and
RS-485 isolated connections. The appropriate electrical interface is selected
through your choice of communication cable. The existing MicroLogix 1761
communication cables provide an interface to the RS-232 drivers. The
1763-NC01 cable provides an interface to the RS-485 drivers (for DH-485,
The controller may also be connected to serial devices, such as bar code

Disconnecting Main Power
Explosion Hazard
Do not replace components, connect equipment, or
disconnect equipment unless power has been switched off.
The main power disconnect switch should be located where operators and
maintenance personnel have quick and easy access to it. In addition to
disconnecting electrical power, all other sources of power (pneumatic and
hydraulic) should be de-energized before working on a machine or process
controlled by a controller.
Safety Circuits
Explosion Hazard
Do not connect or disconnect connectors while circuit is
live.
Circuits installed on the machine for safety reasons, like overtravel limit
switches, stop push buttons, and interlocks, should always be hard-wired
directly to the master control relay. These devices must be wired in series so
that when any one device opens, the master control relay is de-energized,
thereby removing power to the machine. Never alter these circuits to defeat
their function. Serious injury or machine damage could result.
Publication 1763-UM001D-EN-P - March 2011
Installing Your Controller 23
Power Distribution
There are some points about power distribution that you should know:
• The master control relay must be able to inhibit all machine motion by
removing power to the machine I/O devices when the relay is
de-energized. It is recommended that the controller remain powered
even when the master control relay is de-energized.
• If you are using a DC power supply, interrupt the load side rather than
the AC line power. This avoids the additional delay of power supply
turn-off. The DC power supply should be powered directly from the
fused secondary of the transformer. Power to the DC input and output
circuits should be connected through a set of master control relay
contacts.
Periodic Tests of Master Control Relay Circuit
Any part can fail, including the switches in a master control relay circuit. The
failure of one of these switches would most likely cause an open circuit, which
would be a safe power-off failure. However, if one of these switches shorts
out, it no longer provides any safety protection. These switches should be
tested periodically to assure they will stop machine motion when needed.
Publication 1763-UM001D-EN-P - March 2011
24 Installing Your Controller
Power Considerations
The following explains power considerations for the micro controllers.
Isolation Transformers
You may want to use an isolation transformer in the AC line to the controller.
This type of transformer provides isolation from your power distribution
system to reduce the electrical noise that enters the controller and is often used
as a step-down transformer to reduce line voltage. Any transformer used with
the controller must have a sufficient power rating for its load. The power
rating is expressed in volt-amperes (VA).
Power Supply Inrush
During power-up, the MicroLogix 1100 power supply allows a brief inrush
current to charge internal capacitors. Many power lines and control
transformers can supply inrush current for a brief time. If the power source
cannot supply this inrush current, the source voltage may sag momentarily.
The only effect of limited inrush current and voltage sag on the MicroLogix
1100 is that the power supply capacitors charge more slowly. However, the
effect of a voltage sag on other equipment should be considered. For example,
a deep voltage sag may reset a computer connected to the same power source.
The following considerations determine whether the power source must be
required to supply high inrush current:
• The power-up sequence of devices in a system.
• The amount of the power source voltage sag if the inrush current
cannot be supplied.
• The effect of voltage sag on other equipment in the system.
If the entire system is powered-up at the same time, a brief sag in the power
source voltage typically will not affect any equipment.
Loss of Power Source
The power supply is designed to withstand brief power losses without
affecting the operation of the system. The time the system is operational
during power loss is called program scan hold-up time after loss of power. The
duration of the power supply hold-up time depends on the type and state of
the I/O, but is typically between 10 milliseconds and 3 seconds. When the
duration of power loss reaches this limit, the power supply signals the
processor that it can no longer provide adequate DC power to the system.
Publication 1763-UM001D-EN-P - March 2011
Installing Your Controller 25
TIP
This is referred to as a power supply shutdown. The processor then performs
an orderly shutdown of the controller.
Input States on Power Down
The power supply hold-up time as described above is generally longer than the
turn-on and turn-off times of the inputs. Because of this, the input state
change from “On” to “Off ” that occurs when power is removed may be
recorded by the processor before the power supply shuts down the system.
Understanding this concept is important. The user program should be written
to take this effect into account.
Other Types of Line Conditions
Occasionally the power source to the system can be temporarily interrupted. It
is also possible that the voltage level may drop substantially below the normal
line voltage range for a period of time. Both of these conditions are considered
to be a loss of power for the system.
Preventing Excessive Heat
For most applications, normal convective cooling keeps the controller within
the specified operating range. Ensure that the specified temperature range is
maintained. Proper spacing of components within an enclosure is usually
sufficient for heat dissipation.
In some applications, a substantial amount of heat is produced by other
equipment inside or outside the enclosure. In this case, place blower fans
inside the enclosure to assist in air circulation and to reduce “hot spots” near
the controller.
Additional cooling provisions might be necessary when high ambient
temperatures are encountered.
Do not bring in unfiltered outside air. Place the controller in
an enclosure to protect it from a corrosive atmosphere.
Harmful contaminants or dirt could cause improper
operation or damage to components. In extreme cases, you
may need to use air conditioning to protect against heat
build-up within the enclosure.
Publication 1763-UM001D-EN-P - March 2011
26 Installing Your Controller
ATTENTION
TIP
Master Control Relay
A hard-wired master control relay (MCR) provides a reliable means for
emergency machine shutdown. Since the master control relay allows the
placement of several emergency-stop switches in different locations, its
installation is important from a safety standpoint. Overtravel limit switches or
mushroom-head push buttons are wired in series so that when any of them
opens, the master control relay is de-energized. This removes power to input
and output device circuits. Refer to the figures on pages 28 and 29.
Never alter these circuits to defeat their function since
serious injury and/or machine damage could result.
If you are using an external DC power supply, interrupt
the DC output side rather than the AC line side of the
supply to avoid the additional delay of power supply
turn-off.
The AC line of the DC output power supply should be
fused.
Connect a set of master control relays in series with the
DC power supplying the input and output circuits.
Place the main power disconnect switch where operators and maintenance
personnel have quick and easy access to it. If you mount a disconnect switch
inside the controller enclosure, place the switch operating handle on the
outside of the enclosure, so that you can disconnect power without opening
the enclosure.
Whenever any of the emergency-stop switches are opened, power to input and
output devices should be removed.
When you use the master control relay to remove power from the external
I/O circuits, power continues to be provided to the controller’s power supply
so that diagnostic indicators on the processor can still be observed.
The master control relay is not a substitute for a disconnect to the controller.
It is intended for any situation where the operator must quickly de-energize
I/O devices only. When inspecting or installing terminal connections,
replacing output fuses, or working on equipment within the enclosure, use the
disconnect to shut off power to the rest of the system.
Publication 1763-UM001D-EN-P - March 2011
Installing Your Controller 27
TIP
TIP
Do not control the master control relay with the
controller. Provide the operator with the safety of a direct
connection between an emergency-stop switch and the
master control relay.
Using Emergency-Stop Switches
When using emergency-stop switches, adhere to the following points:
• Do not program emergency-stop switches in the controller program.
Any emergency-stop switch should turn off all machine power by
turning off the master control relay.
• Observe all applicable local codes concerning the placement and
labeling of emergency-stop switches.
• Install emergency-stop switches and the master control relay in your
system. Make certain that relay contacts have a sufficient rating for your
application. Emergency-stop switches must be easy to reach.
• In the following illustration, input and output circuits are shown with
MCR protection. However, in most applications, only output circuits
require MCR protection.
The following illustrations show the Master Control Relay wired in a grounded
system.
In most applications input circuits do not require MCR
protection; however, if you need to remove power from all
field devices, you must include MCR contacts in series with
input power wiring.
