Environment and Enclosure
Preventing Electrostatic Discharge
ATTENTION: This equipment is intended for use in a Pollution Degree 2
industrial environment, in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in
IEC 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 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be difficulties
with electromagnetic compatibility in residential and other environments due to
conducted and 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
nonmetallic. 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 Standard 250 and IEC 60529, as applicable, for explanations of the
degrees of protection provided by different types of enclosure.
ATTENTION: This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can
cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines
when you handle this equipment:
• Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static.
• Wear an approved grounding wriststrap.
• Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards.
• Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment.
• Use a static-safe workstation, if available.
• Store the equipment in appropriate static-safe packaging when not in use.

Overview
The EtherNet/IP ArmorBlock is a 24V DC I/O module that communicates via
EtherNet/IP. The sealed IP65, IP67 and IP69K housing of these modules requires no
enclosure. Note that environmental requirements other than IP65, IP67 and IP69K may
require an additional appropriate enclosure. I/O connectors are sealed M12 style.
EtherNet/IP networks use advanced network technology, for example,
producer/consumer communication, to increase network functionality and throughput.

(1) Protective Earth is provided for the grounding of field devices and is internally connected to each Pin 5 of the M12 I/O
connectors. See I/O Connectors on page 9.
(2) Functional Earth grounds the I/O block’s EtherNet/IP communication circuitry which is designed to mitigate the effect of
noise on the network. See EtherNet/IP Connector on page 10.

Catalog Number Explanation
Refer to the table for a description of the module catalog numbers.
Install the Module
To install the module:
• Set the network address
•Mountthemodule
• Connect the I/O, Network and Auxiliary cables to the module.
Set the Network Address
The I/O block ships with the rotary switches set to 999 and DHCP enabled.
To change the network address, you can do one of the following:
• adjust the switch on the front of the module.
• use a Dynamic Host Configuration Protocol (DHCP) server, such as Rockwell
Automation BootP/DHCP.
• retrieve the IP address from nonvolatile memory.
The I/O block reads the switches first to determine if the switches are set to a valid
number. To set the network address:
1. Rotate the three (3) switches on the front of the module using a small
blade screwdriver.

2. Line up the small notch on the switch with the number setting you wish to use.
Valid settings range from 001…254.
3. Cycle power.
Set Network Address
When the switches are set to a valid number, the I/O block’s IP address is 192.168.1.xxx
(where xxx represents the number set on the switches). The I/O block’s subnet mask is
255.255.255.0 and the gateway address is set to 0.0.0.0. When the I/O block uses the
network address set on the switches, the I/O block does not have a host name assigned to it
or use any Domain Name Server.
If the switches are set to an invalid number (for example, 000 or a value greater than 254
excluding 888), the I/O block checks to see if DHCP is enabled. If DHCP is enabled, the
I/O block asks for an address from a DHCP server. The DHCP server also assigns other
Transport Control Protocol (TCP) parameters.
If DHCP is not enabled, the I/O block uses the IP address (along with other TCP
configurable parameters) stored in nonvolatile memory.
Mount the Module
Two sets of mounting holes are used to mount the module directly to a panel or machine.
Mounting holes accommodate #8 (M4) pan head screws. The torque specification is
1.13 Nm (10 in-lb).
Example shows default
node address set at 163.
