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://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.

Environment and Enclosure

ATTENTION 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 m (6562 ft) without derating.

This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to

IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be

difficulties with electromagnetic compatibility in residential and other

environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbances.

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 enclosure must have suitable

flame-retardant properties to prevent or minimize the spread of flame, complying

with a flame spread rating of 5VA, V2, V1, V0 (or equivalent) if non-metallic. 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.

In addition to this publication, see:

•Industrial Automation Wiring and Grounding Guidelines, Rockwell

Automation publication 1770-4.1, for additional installation

requirements.

•NEMA Standards 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of

the degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.

Publication 1768-IN004D-EN-P - December 2009

About CompactLogix Controllers

CompactLogix 1768-L43 and 1768-L45 controllers are designed to

provide a Logix solution for medium-sized applications. Compact

GuardLogix controller catalog numbers end in ‘S’. These safety

controllers are wider than their standard counterparts.

Verify Compatibility

This table shows the compatible RSLogix 5000 software versions and

controller firmware revisions.

IMPORTANT Attempting to use controllers with incompatible software and firmware

revisions may result in:

•an inability to connect to the series B controller in RSLogix 5000

software.

•unsuccessful firmware upgrades in ControlFlash or AutoFlash

utilities.

Module Placement

Follow these requirements to determine proper placement of your

1768 controller, power supply, 1768 I/O modules, and 1769 I/O

modules:

•Place the 1768-L4xx controller so that it is the last module

(furthest away from the power supply) in the 1768 backplane.

•The 1768 CompactLogix power supply distributes power from

the right side of the supply and must be the leftmost module

in the system.

•Up to eight 1769 I/O modules can reside in the local bank.

•The local bank is powered by a 1768 power supply.

•Up to two remote banks of 1769 I/O modules may be

connected by using 1769-CRLxextension cables.

•Remote banks are powered by a standard 1769 power supply.

IMPORTANT CompactLogix System Distance Ratings

Because the 1768 CompactLogix power supply works with the controller to

power a 1768 system, the distance rating in a 1768 CompactLogix system differs

from that in a 1769 CompactLogix system.

In the 1768 system, the distance rating is the distance between 1769 I/O modules

and the controller. In the 1769 system, the distance rating is the distance

between 1769 I/O modules and the power supply.

•Up to eight 1769 Compact I/O modules can reside on each

side of a 1769 power supply in a remote bank. Consult the

module’s specifications for its distance rating.

•The type of controller determines the maximum number of

1768 modules that can reside in the local bank and the

maximum number of 1769 I/O modules that can reside in one

local and up to two remote banks.

Install the Controller

Follow these steps to install your controller.

1. Mount the controller to a panel or on a DIN rail.

2. Confirm the installation.

3. Connect the controller.

4. Configure a serial or Ethernet driver.

5. Install a CompactFlash card (optional).

6. Download and install controller firmware.

IMPORTANT Never place a 1769 power supply in a local bank with a 1768

controller or a major fault will occur.

IMPORTANT Do not use screws if using a DIN rail to mount the controller. You can

break the mounting tabs if you screw the controller to a panel while it

is on a DIN rail.

Publication 1768-IN004D-EN-P - December 2009

Panel Mount the Controller

Follow these steps to mount your controller by using the panhead

screws.

1. Connect the CompactLogix modules together as shown in

Mount the Controller on a DIN Rail on page 10.

2. Use the controller as a template and mark pilot holes on your

panel.

3. Drill the pilot holes for M4 or #8 screws.

4. Use M4 or #8 screws to mount the controller to your panel

with 1.16 N•m (10 lb•in) of torque.

5. Ground the module on a ground bus with a dedicated earth

ground stake.

6. Connect the ground bus to a functional earth ground on the

panel or a DIN rail.

Mount the Controller on a DIN Rail

ATTENTION During mounting of all devices, be sure that all debris (such as metal

chips or wire strands) is kept from falling into the controller or I/O

modules. Debris that falls into the controller or modules could cause

damage while the controller is energized.

ATTENTION This product is grounded through the DIN rail to chassis ground. Use zinc

plated yellow-chromate steel DIN rail to assure proper grounding. The use of

other DIN rail materials (for example, aluminum and plastic) that can corrode,

oxidize, or are poor conductors, can result in improper or intermittent

grounding. Secure DIN rail to the mounting surface approximately every

200 mm (7.87 in.) and use end anchors appropriately.
