This equipment is supplied as enclosed equipment. It should not require
additional system enclosure when used in locations consistent with the
enclosure type ratings stated in the Specifications section of this publication.
Subsequent sections of this publication may contain additional information
regarding specific enclosure type ratings, beyond what this product provides,
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.

Overview
The 1732E-12X4M12QCDR, 1732E-12X4M12P5QCDR, 1732E-16CFGM12QCR,
1732E-16CFGM12P5QCR, 1732E-16CFGM12QCWR,
1732E-16CFGM12P5QCWR ArmorBlock™are I/O modules that communicate via
EtherNet/IP. The sealed IP65, IP66, IP67 and IP69K housing of these modules requires
no enclosure. The I/O modules have dual Ethernet ports and use an embedded Ethernet
switch.
The modules have Auxiliary power In and Out connectors. There is no need to house
these modules in a secondary enclosure. The I/O modules support the QuickConnect
feature, onboard nonvolatile memory for storing block-specific data such as Tool ID and
counter value, and provide basic distributed I/O functionality.

(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 11.

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.

Publication 1732E-IN010C-EN-E - June 2013
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).

Mount the Module in High Vibration Areas
If you mount the module in an area that is subject to shock or vibration, we recommend
you use a flat and a lock washer to mount the module. Mount the flat and the lock washer
as shown in the mounting illustration. Torque the mounting screws to 1.13 Nm (10 in-lb).

1732E-16CFGM12QCWR, and 1732E-16CFGM12P5QCWR self-configuring
modules contain both input and output functionality.
• If an I/O point is to be an output, dedicate that point as an output with a wired
load and energize it through a control program.
• Energized outputs show an associated active input that can be used as a feedback
mechanism to make certain that the output is on.
• If an I/O point is to be an input, wire the input device as normal and leave the
associated output de-energized at all times.
