Logix Platforms Allen-Bradley Logix platforms provide a single integrated-control architecture for discrete,drives, motion, process, and safety control.
The Logix platforms provide a common control engine, programming software
environment, and communication support across multiple hardware platforms. All Logix
controllers operate with a multitasking, multiprocessing operating system and support the
same set of instructions in multiple programming languages. One RSLogix 5000
programming-software package programs all Logix controllers. And, as part of the
Integrated Architecture, all Logix controllers offer the benefits of the Common Industrial
Protocol (CIP) to communicate via EtherNet/IP, ControlNet, and DeviceNet networks.

CompactLogix Selection Guide
CompactLogix Systems CompactLogix is designed to provide a Logix solution for medium applications. Typically,these applications are machine-level control applications with I/O requirements, network
connectivity, and motion control requirements. A simple system can consist of a
standalone controller with a single bank of I/O modules and DeviceNet communication. In
a more complex system, add other networks and motion control. Multiple controllers can
communicate across networks and share data.
What's New in Version 16.03:
1768-L45 controller
Using CompactLogix controllers on EtherNet/IP or ControlNet networks, you have the
means to cost-effectively integrate a simple machine or application into a plant-wide
control system. For example, you can use a CompactLogix 1769-L35E controller to
connect a suite of scalable products, such as the Allen-Bradley PanelView Plus operator
interface, POINT I/O, and the PowerFlex 70 drive, for a full-scale integrated solution.
Both ends of the architecture provide a direct link from real-time production information
to manufacturing quality or execution systems (and back again), providing a more
accurate view of plant operations and more control options than ever before to achieve
this integration.

Example 1769-L3xConfiguration
The 1769 CompactLogix system provides a Logix solution for low-end to medium
applications. Typically, these applications are machine-level control applications that
require limited I/O quantities and limited communication capabilities. The 1769-L31
controller offers two serial ports. The 1769-L32C and 1769-L35CR controllers offer an
integrated ControlNet port. The 1769-L32E and 1769-L35E controllers offer an integrated
EtherNet/IP port.
Example 1768-L4xConfiguration
The 1768 CompactLogix system combines a 1768 backplane for communication and
motion support and a 1769 backplane for I/O support. The 1768 controller is designed for
integrated motion applications and more complex communication requirements than the
other CompactLogix controllers. The 1768 controller has one serial port. Add 1768
modules for motion control, EtherNet/IP communication, and ControlNet communication.

Controller Battery
The 1769 controller comes with one 1769-BA lithium battery.
The 1768 controller does not require a battery. The controller uses internal flash memory
to store its program during shutdown. Energy stored in the 1768 power supply maintains
controller power long enough to store the program to internal flash memory (not the
external CompactFlash card).
CompactFlash Card
The CompactFlash card offers nonvolatile memory (flash) to permanently store a user
program and tag data on a controller.
1784-CF64 has 64 MB of memory.
1784-CF128 has 128 MB of memory.
1769-L3x ControllerPlacement
The controller and I/O modules can be placed to the left and the right of the power
supply. As many as eight modules can be placed on each side of the power supply.
The CompactLogix controller has a power supply distance rating of 4 modules. The
controller must be the leftmost module in the first bank of the system. The maximum
configuration for the first bank of a CompactLogix controller is the controller and 3 I/O
modules to the left of the power supply and 8 I/O modules to the right of the power
supply.

1769-SG001G-EN-P -- July 2007
CompactLogix Selection Guide
1769-L3x Local I/O Performance
There is one RPI for the entire 1769 backplane (1...750 ms). As you install modules, the
minimum backplane RPI increases. The RPI (request packet interval) defines the frequency
at which the controller sends and receives all I/O data on the backplane.
Type of Module Considerations
Digital and analog(any mix)
1...4 modules can be scanned in 1.0 ms
5...16 modules can be scanned in 1.5 ms
17...30 modules can be scanned in 2.0 ms
some input modules have a fixed 8.0 ms filter, so selectinga faster RPI has no affect
Specialty
full-sized 1769-SDN modules, addional 1.5 ms per module
1769-HSC modules, additional 0.5 ms per module
1769-ASCII modules, minimum of 8 ms per module
You can always select an RPI that is slower than listed above. These considerations show
how fast modules can be scanned - not how fast an application can use the data. The RPI
is asynchronous to the program scan. Other factors, such as program execution duration,
affect I/O throughput.
1768-L4x ControllerPlacement
Follow these guidelines as you place modules in the 1768 backplane.
The 1768 power supply must be the leftmost module in the 1768 backplane.
The controller must be the rightmost module in the 1768 backplane.
11
1769-SG001G-EN-P -- July 2007
CompactLogix Selection Guide
Follow these guidelines as you place 1769 modules to the right of the 1768 backplane.
As many as eight 1769 modules can be attached to the right of the 1768 system.
The 1769 I/O connected directly to the 1768 backplane does not need a 1769 power
supply. Never put a 1769 power supply in the 1768 system. Putting a 1769 power
supply in the 1768 system causes the controller to generate a major fault that cannot
be cleared until you remove the 1769 power supply.
Additional 1769 modules must be in additional I/O banks.
Each additional I/O bank must have its own 1769 power supply.
Configure an individual RPI for each local 1769 I/O module. Use the default RPI numbers
that the software automatically assigns or select faster RPIs as fast as 1 millisecond. I/O
update times do not affect overall 1768 bus performance, such as motion performance or
controller performance.
Use faster RPIs for time critical I/O without impacting overall 1769 I/O performance.
Use Immediate Output (IOT) instructions for further reduction in I/O update times.

Example Serial Configuration
To use Logix5000 controllers on Modbus, you connect through the serial port and execute a
specific ladder logic routine. The controller project is available with RSLogix 5000 Enterprise
programming software. For more information, see Using Logix5000 Controllers as Masters or
Slaves on Modbus Application Solution, publication CIG-AP129.

DH-485 Network On the DH-485 network, the controller can send and receive messages to and from othercontrollers on the network. The DH-485 connection does support remote programming and
monitoring via RSLogix 5000 software. However, excessive traffic over a DH-485
connection can adversely affect overall performance and can lead to timeouts and loss in
RSLogix 5000 configuration performance.
Important: Use Logix5000 controllers on DH-485 networks only when you want to add
controllers to an existing DH-485 network. For new applications with Logix5000
controllers, networks in the NetLinx open architecture are the recommended networks.
You need a 1761-NET-AIC converter for each controller you want to put on the
DH-485 network.

Motion Control Requirements
The Logix approach to motion control employs synchronized, distributed processing and
provides a highly-integrated motion solution. The Logix system integrates sequential and
motion control to bring unmatched flexibility to machine design and unprecedented
efficiency to the manufacturing floor. RSLogix 5000 Enterprise series software supports a
comprehensive set of embedded motion instructions that can be programmed using the
relay ladder, structured text, or sequential function chart editors.
The Logix architecture supports motion components that work in a wide variety of
machine architectures.
Step 3 - Select:
Select a 1768-L4x controller if you have
motion control requirements
Size the motion application (use the
Motion Analyzer)
How you want to interface the controller

(use the Motion Analyzer)
The Kinetix integrated-motion solution uses a SERCOS interface module to perform
complex, multi-axis, synchronized motion. With a Kinetix system, you reap the full
benefit of the integrated architecture because the integration doesn’t stop at the
controller. This system integrates the drive, the motor, and even the actuator at a lower
cost per axis of motion. Use the same RSLogix 5000 programming software to configure,
program, and commission your application.
Networked motion provides the ability to connect via the DeviceNet network to a single-
axis drive to perform simple, point-to-point indexing. You need Ultraware software for
drive and indexing configuration.
For more information on drives, motors, and accessories, see the Motion Control Selection
Guide, publication GMC-SG001.
Integrated Motion The 1768-L4x controller supports integrated motion. You can communicate directly to aservo drive using a motion interface or over a network.
With this controller You can have

Type of Module Description
Input module
An input module responds to an input signal in the following manner:
• Input filtering limits the effect of voltage transients caused by contact bounce and/or electrical noise. If notfiltered, voltage transients could produce false data. All input modules use input filtering.
• Optical isolation shields logic circuits from possible damage due to electrical transients.
• Logic circuits process the signal.
• An input LED turns on or off indicating the status of the corresponding input device.
Output module
An output module controls the output signal in the following manner:
• Logic circuits determine the output status.
• An output LED indicates the status of the output signal.
• Optical isolation separates module logic and bus circuits from field power.
• The output driver turns the corresponding output on or off.
Most output modules have built-in surge suppression to reduce the effects of high-voltage
transients. Use an additional suppression device if an output is being used to control
inductive devices, such as relays, motor starters, solenoids, or motors. Additional
suppression is especially important if your inductive device is in series with or parallel to
hard contacts, such as push buttons or selector switches.
Add a suppression device directly across the coil of an inductive device to reduce the
effects of voltage transients caused by interrupting the current to that device and to
prolong the life of the switch contacts.
Digital I/O Modules
The 1769 Compact I/O modules can be used as local and distributed I/O for a
CompactLogix controller. Each I/O module includes a built-in removable terminal block
with finger-safe cover for connections to I/O sensors and actuators. The terminal block is
behind a door at the front of the module. I/O wiring can be routed from beneath the
module to the I/O terminals.
When planning I/O requirements, consider:
which Compact I/O modules to use.
where to place Compact I/O modules.
how Compact I/O modules operate.

1492 Wiring Systems As an alternative to buying RTBs and connecting the wires yourself, you can buy a wiringsystem of:
interface modules (IFMs) that provide the output terminal blocks for digital I/O modules.
Use the pre-wired cables that match the I/O module to the IFM.
analog interface modules (AIFMs) that provide the output terminal blocks for analog I/O
modules. Use the pre-wired cables that match the I/O module to the AIFM.
I/O module-ready cables. One end of the cable assembly is an RTB that plugs into the
front of the I/O module. The other end has individually color-coded conductors that
connect to a standard terminal block.
1667 PanelConnectModules for ConnectingSensors
A PanelConnect module and its sensor connection system connect sensors directly to I/O
modules using convenient pre-built cables and connectors.
The PanelConnect module mounts on the enclosure and creates the correct seal for the
entry of the sensor connections. You do not need to seal the opening where the sensor
cables enter the enclosure, create custom connectors, or wire to those custom connectors.

You can DIN-rail or panel mount the controller and I/O modules. The number of local I/O
modules supported depends on the controller.
Each 1769 I/O module has a distance rating. In 1769 systems, the distance rating is the
number of modules between the specific module and the 1769 power supply. In a 1768
system, the distance rating is the number of modules between the specific I/O module
and the 1768 controller.

1768 Power Supplies The 1768 backplane requires one 1768 power supply. The power supply is a dual inputsupply that operates in multiple ranges. The power supply also offers a 24V dc external
power source. The CompactLogix power supply requires that a 1768 CompactLogix
controller be installed to power the system.
• The power supply sends 24V dc to the controller located in slot 0.
• The controller converts the 24V dc to 5V dc and 24V dc and distributes it as needed.
– 5V and 24V power to 1769 I/O modules on the right side of the controller
– 24V power to 1768 modules on the left side of the controller
The 1768 modules do not have a distance rating to the 1768 power supply. For the 1769
I/O modules in the 1768 system, the distance rating is from the controller and not the
1768 power supply.
