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.

Requirements
Determine Module
Placement
This module contains the circuitry necessary to control the on/off
status of eight user devices. The devices can be:
• ac motor starters
• indicators
• solenoids
An output can drive an Allen–Bradley Size 4 motor starter, provided
its supply voltage does not drop below 92V ac. The maximum load
current the module can deliver is 1.5A per channel, not to exceed 6A
total per module.
The output module is powered by the power supply connected to the
I/O chassis backplane. The module requires a maximum current of
210mA from the +5V dc output of this supply. Total the current
requirements of this module with the other modules in the I/O
chassis to avoid overloading the supply or the I/O chassis backplane.
Group your modules to minimize adverse effects from radiated
electrical noise and/or heat. We recommend the following:
• Group analog input and low voltage dc modules away from ac
modules or high voltage dc modules to minimize electrical noise
interference.
• Place analog input modules and other I/O modules sensitive to
heat away from slot power supplies and rack controllers to
minimize adverse heat effects.
ATTENTION
!
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.

Key the Backplane Connector
Place your module in any slot in the chassis
except the leftmost slot which is reserved for
processors or adapters.
ATTENTION
!
Observe the following precautions
when inserting or removing keys:
• insert or remove keys with your
fingers
• make sure that key placement is
correct
Incorrect keying or the use of a tool
can result in damage to the
backplane connector and possible
system faults.
Position the keying bands in the backplane connectors to correspond to
the key slots on the module.
I/O chassis
You can change the position of these bands if
subsequent system design and rewiring makes
insertion of a different type of module necessary.
Place the keying bands:
- between 4 and 6
- between 12 and 14

WARNING
!
Remove power from the 1771 I/O chassis
backplane and wiring arm before removing or
installing an I/O module.
• Failure to remove power from the backplane or
wiring arm could cause module damage,
degradation of performance, or injury.
• Failure to remove power from the backplane
could cause injury or equipment damage due to
possible unexpected operation.
When you insert or remove the module with field
power applied, or connect or disconnect the field
wiring arm with field side power applied, 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.

The 1771–OA module is a modular component of the 1771 I/O
system requiring a properly installed system chassis. Refer to
publication 1771–IN075 for detailed information on acceptable
chassis, proper installation and grounding requirements. Limit the
maximum adjacent slot power dissipation to 15W maximum.
Connect Wiring to the
Module
You make connections to the module through the 1771-WA field
wiring arm shipped with the module. The arm pivots on the chassis
to connect with the 8 terminals on the front of the module. The
wiring arm allows the module to be removed from the chassis
without disconnecting wiring.
1. Make certain all power is removed from the module before
making wiring connections.
2. Swing the wiring arm up into position on the front of the module.
The locking tab on the module will secure it into place.
3. Make your connections to the field wiring arm as shown in
Figure 1. (Use the label on the front of the wiring arm to identify
your wiring.)

You should identify the labels on the wiring arm with the name or
number of the device connected at each terminal.

You can use an output of the 1771–OA module to drive an input of a
120V AC input module (1771–IA, –IA2, –ID and –IAD) to indicate
status, such as the turning on a motor starter (Figure 2). However,
you must add an external resistor between the output terminal and
the common (L2) (Figure 2). Typically, this is a 2.5K ohm, 10W
resistor.

Interpreting the Status
Indicators
The module has eight neon status indicators (Figure 3) that show the
state of each output. These indicators light when their corresponding
outputs are energized.
The module also has an indicator that displays a blown–fuse
condition at the respective output regardless of the state of the
output. This indicator is driven by your field device power supply.

Replacing a Fuse
Each module output is individually fused. You can easily access the
module fuses by removing the front component–side cover.
ATTENTION
Remove power from the 1771 I/O chassis
backplane and wiring arm before removing or
installing the module.
• Failure to remove power from the backplane or
!
field wiring arm could cause module damage,
degradation of performance, or injury.
• Failure to remove power from the backplane
could cause injury or equipment damage due to
possible unexpected operation.
If a blown fuse occurs:
1. Turn off power to the I/O chassis backplane.
2. Pivot the wiring arm away from the module and pull the module
from the I/O chassis.
3. Remove the front half of the protective cover from the unlabeled
side of the module by removing the two slotted screws.
4. Replace the blown fuse with a 2A, 250V Buss AGC2 fuse.
5. Replace the protective cover and install the module in the I/O
chassis.
6. Reposition the wiring arm.
7. Restart system power.
