Before You Begin
This section contains information you should understand before installing the
CompactLogix packaged controller.
Restrictions
The maximum amount of expansion modules that can be used with the packaged
controllers is two. Within that limit, the number of expansion I/O modules that can
be attached to the packaged controller depends on the bus current draw of the
modules being attached.
Each packaged controller has a specified amount of available bus current as shown
in this table.
Packaged Controller Bus Current and Expansion Module Limits
Cat. No.Total Available 5V DC Bus Current
1769-L23E-QB1B1 A (1000 mA)
1769-L23E-QBFC1B450 mA
1769-L23-QBFC1B800 mA
To determine the number of expansion I/O modules you can add, total the bus
current draw (maximum) of your planned expansion I/O modules and the end cap.
If your result is less than the packaged controller’s maximum available bus current,
you are within the expansion I/O limit of your packaged controller.

Wiring Power to the System
Use this diagram as a reference when wiring the required 24V DC power to your
system.
WARNING
For more information about replacing the fuse, see the Fuse Replacement Procedure in
the Compact Expansion Power Supplies installation instructions, publication 1769-IN028
IMPORTANT
Power Wiring Diagram
To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), this equipment and all connected I/O
must be powered from a source compliant with one of the following:
• Do not connect directly to line voltage. Line voltage must be supplied by a suitable,
approved isolating transformer or power supply having short-circuit capacity not
exceeding 100 VA maximum or equivalent.
• Explosion hazard, do not remove or replace fuses on the packaged controller unless
power has been disconnected or the area is known to be free of ignitible
concentrations of flammable gases or vapors.
• When you connect or disconnect the Removable Terminal Block (RTB) with field side
power applied, an electrical arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations.
• If you connect or disconnect wiring while the field-side power is on, an electrical arc
can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous location installations.
Be sure that power is removed or the area is nonhazardous before proceeding.
• Mis-wiring the removable terminal blocks to an AC power source causes damage
to the packaged controller.
• Be careful when stripping wires. Wire fragments that fall into an removable
terminal block could cause damage at power up. Once wiring is complete, ensure
the removable terminal blocks are free of all metal fragments.
• When wiring I/O removable terminal blocks, tighten terminal screws with care.
Excessive tightening can strip a screw.
To begin wiring your embedded I/O removable terminal blocks, loosen the screws
at the top and bottom of the removable terminal block and remove the removable
terminal block from the packaged controller.

Analog I/O Wiring Diagrams
Read and consider this information before wiring your analog I/O.
ATTENTION
IMPORTANT
Analog outputs may fluctuate for less than a second when power is applied or removed.
This characteristic is common to most analog outputs. While the majority of loads will
not recognize the short signal, take preventive measures to ensure that connected
equipment is not affected.
In environments where high-frequency noise may be present, it may be necessary to
directly ground cable shields to earth at the removable terminal block end and via a 0.1µF
capacitor at the sensor end.
• All analog I/O commons (ANLG COM) are connected in the analog I/O card
of the packaged controller. The analog common (ANLG COM) is not
connected to earth ground inside the packaged controller.
• Analog I/O channels are not isolated from each other.
• Use Belden 8761 (or equivalent) shielded wire.
• Under normal conditions, the drain wire and shield junction must be
connected to earth ground via a panel or DIN rail mounting screw at the
analog I/O removable terminal block end. Keep the shield connection to
ground as short as possible.
• To ensure optimum accuracy, limit overall cable impedance by keeping your
cable as short as possible. Plan to place the packaged controller as close to
your sensors or actuators as your application permits.
(1)
• If multiple power supplies are used with analog inputs:
– the power supply commons must be connected.
– do not exceed the specified isolation voltage.
• The embedded analog I/O does not provide loop power for analog inputs.
Use a power supply that matches the input transmitter specifications.
• Differential analog inputs are more immune to noise than single-ended
analog inputs.
• Voltage outputs (Vout 0+ and Vout 1+) of the analog I/O are referenced to
ANLG COM. Load resistance for a voltage output channel must be equal to
or greater than 1 KΩ.
• Current outputs (Iout 0+ and Iout 1+) of the analog I/O source current that
returns to ANLG COM. Load resistance for a current output channel must
remain between 0…300 Ω.
• Voltages on Vin+, V/Iin-, and Iin+ of the analog I/O must be within 0 to
+10V DC of analog common.
(1)
Cable length over 50 m (164.04 ft) may impact accuracy. For details, refer to the Compact Combination Analog I/O Module,
publication 1769-UM008

High-speed Counter Wiring Diagrams
Read and consider this information before wiring your high-speed counter.
ATTENTION
Disconnect power before wiring the HSC removable terminal block. This includes sensor
and packaged controller power.
• Input and output channels are isolated from the packaged controller. Input
channels are isolated from one another; output channels are not.
• Shielded cable is required for high-speed input signals A, B, and Z. Use
individually shielded, twisted-pair cable (or the type recommended by the
encoder manufacturer) for lengths up to 300 m (1000 ft).
• Route field wiring away from any other wiring and as far as possible from
sources of electrical noise, such as motors, transformers, contactors, and AC
devices.
• Routing field wiring in a grounded conduit can reduce electrical noise.
• If field wiring must cross AC or power cables, ensure that they cross at right
angles.
• Make sure the system is properly grounded using these guidelines:
– This product is intended to be mounted to a well-grounded mounting
surface such as a metal panel. Additional grounding connections from the
packaged controller’s mounting tabs or DIN rail (if used) are only
required when the mounting surface is non-conductive and cannot be
grounded.
– Keep the shield connection to ground as short as possible.
– Ground the shield drain wire only at the HSC input end, except where
high-frequency noise is present.
IMPORTANT
In environments where high-frequency noise may be present, it may be necessary to
directly ground cable shields to earth at the removable terminal block end and via a 0.1µF
capacitor at the sensor end.
• To establish optimum accuracy, limit overall cable impedance by keeping
cable as short as possible. Locate the packaged controller as close to input
devices as your application permits.

Sourcing Output - Source describes the current flow between the I/O and the field device. Sourcing output circuits supply
(source) current to sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the negative side (DC Common) of the field power supply
are sinking field devices. Field devices connected to the positive side (+V) of the field supply are sourcing field devices.
Europe: DC sinking input and sourcing output circuits are the commonly used options.

Typical Loading Resistor - To limit the effects of leakage current through solid state outputs, a loading resistor can be
connected in parallel with your load. Use a 5.6K ohm, ½ watt resistor for transistor outputs, 24V DC operation.
