Preface
IMPORTANT
This quick start describes how to use CompactLogix 5370 L1 controllers to install a simple
CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system and execute a task with a local 1734 POINT I/O output
module. The programming examples included are not complex, and offer solutions to verify that
devices are functioning and communicating properly.
Consider the following points:
• A typical CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system includes more components than listed in this quick start. For
example, you can use 1734 POINT I/O modules over an EtherNet/IP network in a CompactLogix 5370 L1 control
system. Other quick starts describe how to use additional components with your control system.
For a list of quick starts describing how to use other components in Logix5000™ control systems, see Choose to
Integrate Optional Devices on page 12.
• Not all tasks described in this quick start are required to complete the final task, that is, use ladder logic to test a
1769-OB16 output module as described beginning on page 51. For example, you do not need a DeviceNet
configuration file to test the module.
We expect that you might attempt to complete additional tasks with your control system by using the publications
listed on page 12. When you use those publications, some assumptions are made. For example, if you use a
PanelView Plus terminal over an EtherNet/IP network in a CompactLogix 5370 L3 control system, you must have
already created project and assigned an IP address to the controller.
If you complete all of the tasks described in this quick start, you can easily complete the tasks described in the
publications listed on page 12.
The following topics are described in this quick start:
• Installing hardware for a basic CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system
• Installing software required for the basic CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system
Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS024B-EN-P - December 2012 9
Preface
IMPORTANT
IMPORTANT
• Configuring an EtherNet/IP network
You are not required to install nor configure an EtherNet/IP network to complete the tasks described in this quick
start. However, before you can complete the tasks described in some of the publications listed on page 12, you
must first install an EtherNet/IP network.
For example, Chapter 4, on Create a Logix Designer Project on page 51 describes how to use ladder logic to test a
1734-OB4E output module. The test is completed by using the output module in a local expansion slot in the
CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system and does not require use of a 1783-EMS08T Stratix 6000 managed switch
because it can be done via a USB connection to the controller.
If you use 1734 POINT I/O modules over an EtherNet/IP network in your CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system, as
described in the Logix5000 Control Systems: POINT I/O over an EtherNet/IP Network Quick Start, publication
IASIMP-QS027, you must install and configure an EtherNet/IP network.
Completing all of the tasks described in this quick start will assist you when attempting to complete the tasks in
some other quick starts, such as publication IASIMP-QS027.

IMPORTANT
Configure the EtherNet/IP Network
In this chapter, you assign an IP address to your CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller.
This quick start does not describe how to use other devices on the EtherNet/IP network. It is
common to use other devices on an EtherNet/IP network in a CompactLogix 5370 L1 control
system. If you were to do so, for example, use a PanelView Plus terminal on an
EtherNet/IP network, you need to assign an IP address to those devices.
Not all tasks described in this quick start are required to complete the final task, that is, use ladder logic to test a
1734-OB4E output module as described beginning on page 51. For example, you do not need to install an
EtherNet/IP network to connect to a CompactLogix 5370 L3 controller because you can do so over a USB cable.
We expect that you might attempt to complete additional tasks with your control system by using the publications
listed on page 12 relating to using a component over an EtherNet/IP network in a Logix5000 control system. When you
use those publications, some assumptions are made. For example, if you use POINT I/O modules over an EtherNet/IP
network in a CompactLogix 5370 L1 control system, you must have already created a Logix Designer projectLogix
Designer projectand have an IP address assigned to the controller.
If you complete all of the tasks described in this chapter, you can easily complete the tasks described in the publications
listed on page 12 related to using an EtherNet/IP network.

Add Ladder Logic to Test the Local Expansion Module
If you do not have a 1734-OB4E module, you can use ladder logic with an embedded output point on the CompactLogix
5370 L1 controller in a similar fashion.
When using an embedded output point, instead of choosing an output point on the local expansion module, as
described in step 13 on page 62, you choose an embedded digital output point on the CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller.
1. Expand the Tasks folders.
2. Right-click MainRoutine and
choose Open.
A blank MainRoutine opens.
3. From the Element Toolbar, drag
and drop an Examine On and an
Output Energize element onto the
rung.

Understanding Other Application Options
IMPORTANT
This chapter describes two application options available with a CompactLogix 5370
L1 controller:
• Using the controller in a DLR network topology
• Using the controller in an application that includes Integrated Motion on an
EtherNet/IP network - 1769-L18ERM-BB1B controller only
Appendix A
This chapter does not describe specific steps required to use the CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller in applications with
DLR networks or Integrated Motion over an EtherNet/IP network.
The purpose is to introduce you to these other applications.
See the following publications for more information on using the application options:
• Using the controller in a DLR network topology:
– CompactLogix 5370 Controllers User Manual, publication 1769-UM021
– EtherNet/IP Embedded Switch Technology Application Guide,
publication ENET-AP005
• Using the controller in an application that includes Integrated Motion on the EtherNet/IP
network:
– CompactLogix 5370 Controllers User Manual, publication 1769-UM021
– CIP Motion Configuration and Startup User Manual, publication MOTION-UM003

DLR Network Topology
A DLR network topology is a single-fault-tolerant ring network in which DLR-capable
Rockwell Automation devices use embedded technology and dual EtherNet/IP ports to establish
a network that is resilient to single points of failure, recovers faster when single faults occur, and
does not require switches.
Configuring a DLR network topology requires you to complete a few tasks that do not apply to
using a CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller in a linear or star network topology. For example, a
DLR network topology requires that one supervisor-capable network device be configured as
the active ring supervisor. CompactLogix 5370 L1 controllers are supervisor-capable devices on a
DLR network.
This graphic shows a DLR network topology with a CompactLogix 5370 L1 controller.
