Because of the variety of uses for the products described in this
publication, those responsible for the application and use of these
products must satisfy themselves that all necessary steps have been
taken to assure that each application and use meets all performance
and safety requirements, including any applicable laws, regulations,
codes and standards. In no event will Rockwell Automation be
responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damage resulting
from the use or application of these products.
Any illustrations, charts, sample programs, and layout examples
shown in this publication are intended solely for purposes of

with any particular installation, Rockwell Automation does not
assume responsibility or liability (to include intellectual property
liability) for actual use based upon the examples shown in this
publication.
Allen–Bradley publication SGI–1.1, Safety Guidelines for
Application, Installation, and Maintenance of Solid–State Control
(available from your local Rockwell Automation office), describes
some important differences between solid–state equipment and
electromechanical devices that should be taken into consideration
when applying products such as those described in this publication.

Environment and Enclosure
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 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.
See NEMA Standards publication 250 and IEC
publication 60529, as applicable, for explanations
of the degrees of protection provided by different
types of enclosures. Also, see the appropriate
sections in this publication, as well as the
Allen–Bradley publication 1770–4.1, (“Industrial
Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines”),
for additional installation requirements pertaining
to this equipment.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
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, keep modules in appropriate
static–safe packaging.
The 1771-IVN Series C dc input module is a source input and
requires a sink output. A source input provides a positive voltage
path and a sink output provides a path to ground.
You must use this module in a Series B or later 1771 I/O chassis.
Refer to the table below for processor compatibility.

WARNING
!
Do not place this module in the same I/O chassis as the 1771-IX
thermocouple module. You can use this module in the same chassis
as the 1771-IXE thermocouple module. You can use this module in
the same chassis as the 1771–IXE thermocouple module.
