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 platform, all Logix controllers offer the benefits of the Common
Industrial Protocol (CIP) to communicate via EtherNet/IP, ControlNet, and DeviceNet
networks.

4 CompactLogix Selection Guide
CompactLogix Systems CompactLogix is designed to provide a Logix solution for small and mid-size applications.
Typically, these applications are machine-level control applications with I/O requirements,
What's New in Version 17: 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
y 1769-L23x packaged controllers a more complex system, add other networks and motion control. Multiple controllers can
communicate across networks and share data.
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.

1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
Example 1769-L3 x The 1769-L3x CompactLogix system provides a Logix solution for low-end to medium
applications. Typically, these applications are machine-level control applications that
Configuration 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.

1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
Example 1768-L4 x 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
Configuration 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.

✶When estimating memory use by communication modules, count all the communication modules in the system, not just those in the local
chassis. This includes device connection modules, adapter modules, and ports on PanelView terminals.
CompactFlash Card
The CompactFlash card offers nonvolatile memory (flash) to permanently store a user
program and tag data on a controller. The 1769-L3x and 1768-L4x controllers support a
CompactFlash card.
y 1784-CF64 has 64 MB of memory.

y 1784-CF128 has 128 MB of memory.
Controller Battery
The 1769-L23x and 1769-L3x controllers come 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).

1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
1769-L23 x Controller The controller comes with:

System • built-in power supply.
• either two serial ports or one serial and one EtherNet/IP port.
• combination of embedded digital, analog, and high-speed counter I/O.
• 1769-ECR right-end cap.

You can add up to two additional 1769 modules to the right of the controller package. The
modules you can add depend on their current draw. Each packaged controller has the
following amount of 5V DC bus current.
Controller Available 5V DC Current

1769-L23 x Local I/O Performance
The RPI (request packet interval) defines the frequency at which the controller sends and
receives all I/O data on the backplane. The default RPI is 5 ms. The combination of
embedded I/O in the packaged controllers determines the fastest RPI you can configure.
Controller Considerations
1769-L23E-QB1B y 1...4 modules can be scanned in 1.0 ms
1769-L23-QBFC1B y 1...4 modules can be scanned in 1.5 ms
1769-L23E-QBFC1B y 5...6 modules can be scanned in 2.0 ms
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.

1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
1769-L3 x Controller System 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.
www.pacontrol.com
1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
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

y 1...4 modules can be scanned in 1.0 ms
y 5...16 modules can be scanned in 1.5 ms
Digital and analog
(any mix) y 17...30 modules can be scanned in 2.0 ms
y some input modules have a fixed 8.0 ms filter, so selecting
a faster RPI has no affect
y full-sized 1769-SDN modules, addional 1.5 ms per module
Specialty y 1769-HSC modules, additional 0.5 ms per module
y 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-L4 x Controller System Follow these guidelines as you place modules in the 1768 backplane.
y The 1768 power supply must be the leftmost module in the 1768 backplane.
y The controller must be the rightmost module in the 1768 backplane.
www.pacontrol.com
1769-SG001H-EN-P -- July 2008
Follow these guidelines as you place 1769 modules to the right of the 1768 backplane.
y As many as eight 1769 modules can be attached to the right of the 1768 system.
y 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.
y Additional 1769 modules must be in additional I/O banks.
y 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.
y Use faster RPIs for time critical I/O without impacting overall 1769 I/O performance.
y Use Immediate Output (IOT) instructions for further reduction in I/O update times.

How a Logix System A Logix system uses a connection to establish a communication link between two
devices. Connections can be:
Uses Connections y controller to local I/O modules or local communication modules.
y controller to remote I/O or remote communication modules.
y controller to remote I/O (rack-optimized) modules.
y produced and consumed tags.
y messages.
You indirectly determine the number of connections the controller uses by configuring the
controller to communicate with other devices in the system.
Method Description
A scheduled connection is unique to ControlNet communication. A scheduled connection
lets you send and receive data repeatedly at a predetermined interval, which is the
requested packet interval (RPI). For example, a connection to an I/O module is a scheduled
Scheduled connection connection because you repeatedly receive data from the module at a specified interval.
Other scheduled connections include connections to:
• Highest level of determinism
y communication devices.
• Unique to the ControlNet network
y produced/consumed tags.
On a ControlNet network, you must use RSNetWorx for ControlNet software to enable all
scheduled connections and establish a network update time (NUT).
Unscheduled connection An unscheduled connection is a message transfer between controllers that is triggered by
• Deterministic the requested packet interval (RPI) or the program (such as a MSG instruction).
Unscheduled messaging lets you send and receive data when needed.
• Used by both ControlNet and EtherNet/IP
networks All EtherNet/IP connections are unscheduled.
Unconnected message An unconnected message is a message that does not require connection resources. An
• Least deterministic unconnected message is sent as a single request/response.

DH-485 Network On the DH-485 network, the controller can send and receive messages to and from other
controllers 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.

Type of Module Description
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
not filtered, voltage transients could produce false data. All input modules use input filtering.
Input module • Optical isolation shields logic circuits from possible damage due to electrical transients.
• Logic circuits process the signal.
• An input indicator turns on or off indicating the status of the corresponding input device.
An output module controls the output signal in the following manner:
• Logic circuits determine the output status.
Output module • An output indicator 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.

1769 I/O Power Supplies Each 1769-L3x controller and additional bank of I/O modules requires a 1769 power
supply. Place 1769 I/O modules to the left or the right of the 1769 power supply. As many
as eight I/O modules can be placed on each side of the power supply.
Each 1769 module also has a power supply distance rating (the number of modules from
the power supply). Each module must be located within its distance rating. See the
specifications for the module to determine its distance rating.

1768 Power Supplies The 1768 backplane requires one 1768 power supply. The power supply is a dual input
supply 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.

software for example, without the need to connect to a real controller.
You can set tracepoint and breakpoint instructions (ladder diagram only) in your
application code, use traces, and also vary the execution speed of the emulator. RSLogix
Emulate 5000 software supports all the programming languages (ladder diagram, function
block diagram, structured text, and sequential function chart). RSLogix Emulate 5000
software does not allow for control of real I/O.
Use RSLogix Emulate software for:
y troubleshooting.
Stop the process whenever a selected rung goes true, effectively freezing the process at
the instant that any error occurs.
y ladder logic scanning options.
Scan your ladder logic continuously, one program scan at a time, rung-by-rung, or select
a specific block of rungs to emulate. Selecting a block of rungs lets you isolate a
particular section of the program for testing purposes. You can also set trace points to
trace application program tags and set break points to halt program execution at
predetermined locations.
