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.literature.rockwellautomation.com) 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

ATTENTION
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 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.
Besides this publication, see:
• Allen-Bradley publication 1770-4.1, Industrial
Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, for
additional installation requirements.
• NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC publication
60529, as applicable, for explanations of the degrees
of protection provided by different types of
enclosure.

Prevent Electrostatic Discharge
ATTENTION
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.

North American Hazardous Location Approval
The following information applies when operating this
equipment in hazardous locations:
Products marked “CL I, DIV 2, GP A, B, C, D” are suitable for use in
Class I Division 2 Groups A, B, C, D, Hazardous Locations and
nonhazardous locations only. Each product is supplied with markings
on the rating nameplate indicating the hazardous location
temperature code. When combining products within a system, the
most adverse temperature code (lowest “T” number) may be used to
help determine the overall temperature code of the system.
Combinations of equipment in your system are subject to
investigation by the local Authority Having Jurisdiction at the time of
installation.
WARNING
EXPLOSION HAZARD

IMPORTANT
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 (e.g. aluminum, plastic, etc.) that can corrode,
oxidize, or are poor conductors, can result in improper
or intermittent grounding. Secure DIN rail to mounting
surface approximately every 200 mm (7.87 in.) and use
end-anchors appropriately.

Install Your Modules
IMPORTANT
Do not use both screws and DIN rail to mount the
modules. It is possible to break the mounting tabs off if
you screw the modules to the panel while they are on
DIN rail.
If You Are Using Screws to Mount Your Modules
The steps in these instructions show how to mount the modules on
DIN rail. If you are using screws instead of DIN rail, make these
changes to the instructions:
1. Follow the steps in Mount the Modules on the DIN Rail to
connect the modules together.
2. Use the modules as a template and mark pilot holes on your
panel.
3. Drill the pilot holes for M4 or #8 screws.
4. Use M4 or #8 screws to mount the modules to your panel.

Why Wait for the Lights to Turn Off Before I Remove a Module?
After you turn off the power, wait for all of the lights on the power
supply and controller to turn off before you disconnect any modules.
• When you turn off the power, the controller writes its project
to Flash memory.
• The MEM SAVE light turns on while the controller writes its
project to Flash memory.
• If you don’t wait for the lights to turn off, you will lose your
project.
Care of Fiber Optic Cables
Keep the fiber optic ports clean. Dirt and dust block the optic path
and reduce performance.
• Cap the ports and cables when you aren’t using them.
• Clean the ends of the cables with either:
– compressed air
– lint and strand free cotton swab and one of these cleaners:
AlcoholsAliphaticsOther
methylhexanesoap solution
isopropylheptanenaphtha
isobutyl
