ControlLogix Communication Modules
ControlNet Modules and
Components
The ControlNet bridge modules (catalog numbers 1756-CNB, 1756-CNBR,
1756-CN2, 1756-CN2R, and 1756-CN2RXT) provide communication
between any nodes properly scheduled on the ControlNet network.
ControlNet Cabling
For remote racks, a single RG6 coax cable is required for ControlNet
communication. Although it is not a requirement to use redundant media with
the 1756-CNBR or 1756-CN2R modules, it does provide higher system
reliability. Redundant media is not required for SIL 2 operation.
ControlNet Repeater
The following ControlNet repeater modules are approved for use in safety
applications up to and including SIL 2:
•
1786-RPFS, Short-distance Fiber Repeater Module
•
1786-RPFM, Medium-distance Fiber Repeater Module
•
1786-RPFRL, Long-distance Fiber Repeater Module
•
1786-RPFRXL, Extra-long-distance Fiber Repeater Module
Use of the 1756-RPA adapter is required with all of the repeater modules listed.
ControlNet Module Diagnostic Coverage
All communication over the passive ControlNet media occur via CIP, which
guarantees delivery of the data. All modules independently verify proper
transmission of the data.
EtherNet/IP Communication
Modules
Use an EtherNet/IP communication module (catalog numbers 1756-ENBT,
1756-EN2T, 1756-EN2TR, and 1756-EN2TXT) to:
•
connect controller chassis to remote I/O.
•
make connections for visualization purposes.
•
establish connections between the programming terminal and controller.
•
When using an EtherNet/IP network for SIL 2 data communication, you
may not use non-SIL 2-rated hardware, such as Ethernet switches.
