Important User Information

Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical

equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls

(Publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at

http://www.literature.rockwellautomation.com) describes some important differences between solid

state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also because

of the wide variety of uses for solid state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment

must satisfy themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.

In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages

resulting from the use or application of this equipment.

The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes. Because of the

many variables and requirements associated with any particular installation, Rockwell Automation, Inc.

cannot assume responsibility or liability for actual use based on the examples and diagrams.

No patent liability is assumed by Rockwell Automation, Inc. with respect to use of information, circuits,

equipment, or software described in this manual.

Reproduction of the contents of this manual, in whole or in part, without written permission of Rockwell

Automation, Inc. is prohibited.

Throughout this manual we use notes to make you aware of safety considerations.

WARNING

Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can cause an explosion in a

hazardous environment, which may lead to personal injury or death, property damage, or

economic loss.

IMPORTANT

Identifies information that is critical for successful application and understanding of the

product.

ATTENTION

Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can lead to personal injury or

death, property damage, or economic loss. Attentions help you identify a hazard, avoid a

hazard, and recognize the consequence.

SHOCK HAZARD

Labels may be located on or inside the equipment to alert people that dangerous voltage

may be present.

BURN HAZARD

Labels may be located on or inside the equipment to alert people that surfaces may be

dangerous temperatures.

ATTENTION

Environment and Enclosure

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.

Publication 1797-IN015G-EN-P - August 2017

About the ControlNet Ex Fiber Repeater Hub

Use the repeater adapter (1797-RPA) and the fiber module (1797-RPFM)

together to form a repeater hub within the hazardous area to extend the

length of the ControlNet Ex segments to interlink systems all operating

within the area.

The 1797-RPA repeater adapter, configured with at least one repeater adapter,

functions as the intelligent starter block for a multiport repeater. The

1797-RPFM is a nonintelligent fiber-to-backplane conversion device,

converting glass-fiber infrared LED media signals to backplane signals for use

by the 1797-RPA.

A maximum of two 1797-RPFM modules may be used with one 1797-RPA

adapter.

Publication 1797-IN015G-EN-P - August 2017

DIN-Rail Mount the 1797-RPA and -RPFM

Refer to Mounting Dimensions on page 31. For panel mounting information,

see publication 1794-5.13.

1. Position the module on a 35 x 7.5 mm DIN rail (A-B part number

199-DR1) at approximately a 30oangle.

2. Hook the lip on the rear of the adapter onto the top of the DIN rail,

and rotate the module onto the rail.

ATTENTION

This product is grounded through the DIN rail to the dedicated

intrinsic safety ground. Use zinc-plated yellow-chromate steel

DIN rail to assure proper grounding. The use of other DIN rail

materials (such as aluminum or plastic) that can corrode, oxidize,

or are poor conductors, can result in improper or intermittent

grounding.

ATTENTION

The DIN rail or mounting bracket must be appropriately

connected to the dedicated intrinsic safety ground.

3. Press the adapter down onto the DIN rail until flush.

The locking tab should snap into position and lock the module to the

DIN rail.

4. If the adapter does not snap into position, use a screwdriver or similar

device to move the locking tab down while pressing the module flush

onto the DIN rail.

Release the locking tab to lock the module in place. If necessary, push

up on the locking tab to lock.

5. Remove the adapter backplane connector cover.

6. Follow steps 1 to 4 to attach fiber modules to the DIN rail.

7. Once attached to the DIN rail, slide fiber modules to the left to mate

with the adapter.

ATTENTION

Make certain that the adapter and fiber modules are secured

together with DIN rail anchors. Failure to do so may result in

the loss of communications, cause damage to the modules, or

both.

ControlNet Ex Modular Repeater Adapter & Fiber Repeater Module 7

Publication 1797-IN015G-EN-P - August 2017

8. Make sure the last fiber module has its backplane connector cover in

place.

9. Connect the adapter wiring as shown below in the Wiring section.

IMPORTANT

A DIN-rail end anchor (A-B part number 1492-EA35) must

be used on the left side of the adapter and on the right side of

the fiber module to keep the units from moving.

IMPORTANT

You can only attach two media modules to the repeater

adapter. If you exceed the module limit, you may cause

damage to the adapter or fiber modules and void the IS

certification.
