2 Description The purpose of this document is to outline how to access EtherNet/IP network variables in a 750-841 Programmable Fieldbus Controller (PFC) using an Allen Bradley ControlLogix PLC. This procedure will guide you through the configuration of the EtherNet/IP Assembly object of the 750-841 PFC, as well as configuring the Allen Bradley 1756-ENBT ControlLogix Ethernet Bridge as an EtherNet/IP scanner.

3 Reference Material This procedure has been tested with, but is not limited to, the following hardware and software: • • • • • • •

Ethernet Switch SYSTEM CONFIGURATION NOTE: This procedure assumes that the WAGO 750-841 contains a valid IP address and it is installed on a working network, along with the Allen Bradley 1756-ENBT and the RSLogix5000 programming terminal. If necessary, refer to WAGO’s Application Note A202900 for assigning a static IP address to the WAGO 750-841.

4 Solution Network variables are addressable memory inside the PFC where data can be shared between two or more networked devices. In distributed control systems, this area is used as a mailbox, for sharing status and control information between devices. The figure below illustrates the data exchange between the ControlLogix PLC and the network variables of the WAGO PFC. There are 256 words of EtherNet/IP network variables in both the input and output process image of the 750-841. In this application note, 10 registers of integer data will be configured for exchange in the input and output process image of both devices.

There are three main steps to configure this system: 1) Enable the 750-841 PFC for EtherNet/IP Communications 2) Configure the EtherNet/IP Assembly Object in the 750-841 PFC 3) Configure the 1756-ENBT as an Ethernet/IP Scanner

4.1 Enable the 750-841 PFC for EtherNet/IP Communications The Ethernet/IP protocol is not recognized by default by the 750-841 Ethernet Controller, so it is necessary to enable this protocol. This is done using a browser to access the internal webpages of the 750-841. To enable the 750-841 for Ethernet/IP communications using a browser: 1) Run the browser utility (e.g. Microsoft’s Internet Explorer) on the programming terminal.

2) In the address bar, enter the IP address of the 750-841 Ethernet Controller, and hit Enter. The 750-841’s internal webpage should appear. If it does not appear, check that you have an Ethernet link to the 750-841’s Ethernet port, and the IP address of the programming terminal is compatible with the IP address of the 750-841. 3) Click ‘Port’ in the left browser frame. The following will appear:

4) Enter the following: User Name:admin Password: wago Click OK. The ‘Port configuration’ frame will appear. 5) In this frame, you must check ‘Ethernet IP’ as enabled. You may enable or disable other protocols at this time as well. Click ‘SUBMIT’ when finished. Perform a hardware or software reset so the new settings take effect. The WAGO 750-841 Ethernet Controller is now enabled for Ethernet/IP communications.

4.2 Configure the EtherNet/IP Assembly Object in the 750-841 The EtherNet/IP assembly class is used to bind attributes of multiple objects to create a single assembly, which can be sent/received over a single connection. The size of the assembly object must be the same in both the producing and consuming device for successful implicit communication. The 750-841 uses its coupler configuration object (class 16#64) to configure the size of the assembly when PFC network variables are included in the object. The following 4-rung program illustrates how to configure the size of the assembly object (Class 4, Instance 16#6E and instance 16#6F) in the PFC using WAGO’s EML_UCMM_REQ function block. This function block is part of the EML.LIB library, and is capable of sending unconnected Ethernet/IP messages. In addition to sending messages to other devices on the network, this function block can be used to access Ethernet/IP objects inside the local PFC. When accessing objects inside the local PFC, an IP address of 127.0.0.1 is used. This address is the loop back address of the device being programmed. In this example, the EML_UCMM_REQ function block will be used to configure the local objects Bk_FbInp_PlcOnly_Var_Cnt (Class 16#64, Attribute16#66) and Bk_FbOut_PlcOnly_Var_Cnt (Class 16#64, Attribute16#68) of the configuration class (class 16#64). Please refer to page 185 of the 750-841 Instruction Manual for further details on the configuration class and attributes.

After the above program is loaded and run on the 750-841 PFC, the size of instances 16#6E and 16#6F of the assembly class (16#04) are set to 20 bytes (10 integers). The size of theses objects are stored in non-volatile memory and are retained during power loss and program downloads. The WAGO 750-841 PFC is now configured for 10 integers of input and output EtherNet/IP network data.

4.3 Configure the 1756-ENBT as an Ethernet/IP Scanner This section assumes that you have an overall understanding of Allen Bradley’s hardware and software. It focuses only on configuring the Logix5555 controller with RSLogix5000, so the WAGO PFC network variables are accessible via Ethernet/IP. 1) Start RSLogix5000. The RSLogix5000 main window is displayed.

5) Before adding the WAGO I/O to the Logix5555 I/O configuration, you must first add the local 1756-ENBT module. To do this, open the I/O Configuration folder in the project window. Right click on I/O Configuration and select the New Module menu item.

The Select Module Type dialog window is displayed.

6) Select 1756-ENBT/A … from the list and click OK. Application note A203200

12) The program/configuration can now be downloaded to the Logix5555 controller. Select the Communications…Download program menu item. After downloading, if everything was setup correctly, the “I/O OK” indicator should be solid green. Additionally, when the cursor is placed on the ETHERNET-MODULE WAGO_Node1, the Module Fault box at the bottom of the figure below should be blank, indicating no error.

If an error does occur, the screen will look similar to the one below. This error is indicating an improper connection size was entered for either the input or output parameters.

13) To view the process data from the WAGO 750-841, click on the Controller Tags tree item.

The Controller Tags dialog window opens. In this example only data from the WAGO 750-841 is displayed. In a real world application, more data would be included in the project.

After completing these steps, the configuration of the WAGO 750-841 PFC and the1756ENBT Ethernet/IP Scanner are complete. The PFC Input and Output Network data is now accessible to the Logix5555 controller as defined in the tables below: RSLogix Input Data RSLogix Variable WAGO_Node1:I.Data[0] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[1] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[2] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[3] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[4] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[5] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[6] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[7] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[8] WAGO_Node1:I.Data[9]
