Power a 5069 Compact I/O System
The 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP adapter provides power to a 5069 Compact
I/O system as follows:
•System-side power that powers the 5069 Compact I/O system and lets
modules transfer data and execute logic.
System-side power is provided through the Module (MOD) Power
connector and is passed to each module as it is added to the system.
System-side power is also known as MOD power.
•Field-side power that powers some 5069 Compact I/O modules and
field-side devices that are connected to them.
Field-side power is provided through the Sensor/Actuator (SA) Power
connector and is passed to each module as it is added to the system.
Field-side power is also known as SA power.
Figure 3 - 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP Adapter Power Connectors
Power begins at the 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP adapter and passes across the
5069 Compact I/O module internal circuitry via power buses. The MOD power
bus and SA power bus are isolated from each other.
MOD Power Connection
SA Power Connection

Rockwell Automation Publication ENET-UM004B-EN-P - November 2015 13
5000 Series EtherNet/IP Communication Module Overview Chapter 1
You connect external power supplies to removable terminal blocks (RTBs) to
provide MOD power and SA power.
For more information on how to connect MOD power and SA power, see the
5069 Compact I/O EtherNet/IP Adapter Installation Instructions, publication
5069-IN003.
MOD Power
MOD power is system-side power that lets 5069 Compact I/O modules transfer
data and execute logic.
5069 Compact I/O System MOD Power Bus
When the MOD power source is turned on, that is, a 5069 Compact I/O system
receives system-side power, the following occurs.
1. The 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP adapter draws current from the MOD
power bus current and passes the remaining current through to the next
module.
2. The next module draws MOD power bus current and passes the remaining
current through to the next module.
3. The process continues until MOD power bus current needs are met for all
modules in the system.
For more information on the current that the 5069 Compact I/O modules draw
from the MOD power bus, see the 5069 Compact I/O Modules Specifications
Technical Data, publication 5069-TD001.
IMPORTANT We recommend that you use separate external power supplies for MOD power
and SA power respectively. This practice can prevent unintended consequences
that can result if you use one supply.
If you use separate external power supplies, the loss of power from one
external power supply does not affect the availability of power from the other
supply. For example, if separate external power supplies are used and SA power
is lost, MOD power remains available for the 5069 Compact I/O modules.
IMPORTANT Remember the following:
•A 5069 Compact I/O system includes only one MOD power bus.
•You must limit the MOD power source to up to 10 A, max, at 18…32V DC.
We recommend that you use an external MOD power supply that is
adequately sized for the total MOD power bus current draw. For example, if
the total MOD power current draw is 5 A, you can use a MOD power supply
that is limited to 5 A at 18…32V DC.
•The MOD power source must meets the 5069 Compact I/O system
inrush requirements.

Chapter 1 5000 Series EtherNet/IP Communication Module Overview
SA Power
SA power is field-side power that some 5069 Compact I/O module use to power
field-side devices that are connected to them.
5069 Compact I/O System SA Power Bus
When the SA power source is turned on, that is, a 5069 Compact I/O system
receives field-side power, the following occurs.
1. The 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP adapter draws current from the SA
power bus current and passes the remaining current through to the next
module.
2. The next module completes one of the following tasks.
–If the module uses SA power to power a field-side device, the module
draws current from the SA power bus and passes the remaining current
through to the next module.
–If the module does not use SA power bus current, the module passes the
remaining current through to the next module.
3. The process continues until all SA power bus current needs are met for the
modules on the SA power bus.
For more information on the current that the 5069 Compact I/O modules draw
from the SA power bus, see the 5069 Compact I/O Modules Specifications
Technical Data, publication 5069-TD001.
IMPORTANT Remember the following:
•A 5069 Compact I/O system can use multiple SA power buses.You can use a
5069-FPD field potential distributor to establish additional SA power buses
in a 5069 Compact I/O system, as described on page 16.
•You must limit SA power sources to the following:
-Up 10 A, max, at 18…32V DC
-Up to 10 A, max, at 0…240V AC
We recommend that you use an external SA power source that is
adequately sized for the total SA power bus current draw. For example, if
the total current draw from an SA power bus is 5 A, you can use an SA
power supply that is limited to 5 A at 18…32V DC or 0…240V AC.
•Connections to the SA power bus use a shared common. All inputs that
draw SA power bus current to power field-side devices have a return
through circuitry to the SA - terminal on the SA power connector.

Track SA Power Bus Current Draw
We recommend that you track the SA power bus current draw, max, per module,
and collectively for the 5069 Compact I/O system.
Consider the following with this example:
•The values in this example represent a worst-case calculation. That is, all
modules that draw SA power bus current, draw the maximum available on
the module.
•Not all modules that are shown in Figure 4 use SA power bus current. For
example, the 5069-ARM and 5069-OW4I modules only pass SA power
bus current to the next module. Other modules that do not use SA power
bus current, but are not shown in the graphic, include the 5069-OB16,
5069-OB16F, and 5069-OX4I modules.
•System SA power bus current, max, is calculated as each module draws SA
power bus current.
In the example in Figure 4, after the 5069-IB16 module in slot 1 draws SA
power bus current, the system SA power bus current, max, is 138 mA.
After the 5069-IB16 module in slot 2 draws SA power bus current, the
system SA power bus current draw is 266 mA.
This process continues until the system SA power bus current, max,
is 1.222 A.

5069-FPD Field Potential Distributor Creates Additional SA Power Buses
The 5069-FPD Field Potential Distributor lets you change the field-side power
distribution source for 5069 Compact I/O modules to the right of the field
power distributor. The field potential distributor passes MOD power bus signals
through to the next module in the system.
You can use a 5069-FPD field potential distributor to add an SA power bus to a
5069 Compact I/O system. The field potential distributor blocks the current
that passes across the SA power bus to the left of the field potential distributor
and establishes a new SA power bus for modules to the right.
The SA power bus that is established by a field potential distributor functions in
the same way as the SA power bus that a 5069-AEN2TR EtherNet/IP adapter
establishes, as described on page 14.
Examples of system configurations that use multiple SA power buses include:
•The modules in the system collectively draw more than 10 A of SA power.
That is, the maximum current that one SA power bus can provide.
•The modules in the system must be isolated according to module types,
such as digital I/O and analog I/O modules.
•The modules in the system are isolated according to the type of field-side
device to which they are connected. For example, you can separate
modules that are connected to field-side devices that require DC voltage
for SA power from modules that are connected to field-side devices that
require AC voltage for SA power.

Create a New SA Power Bus in a 5069 Compact I/O System
Figure 6 shows a 5069 Compact I/O system that uses a 5069-FPD field potential
distributor to create a second SA power bus. The configuration uses separate SA
power buses to isolate the digital I/O modules from the analog I/O modules.

SA Power - Additional Notes
Remember the following:
•We recommend that you use a separate power supply for the SA power
connection from the power supply used with the MOD power connection.
•The actual current in a 5069 Compact I/O system changes based on the
operating conditions at a given time.
For example, the SA power bus current draw on some modules is different
if all channels power field devices or half of the channels power field
devices.
•Not all 5069 Compact I/O modules use SA power.
For example, the 5069-ARM, 5069-OB16, 5069-OB16F, 5069-OW4I,
and 5069-OX4I modules do not use SA power.
•Some 5069 Compact I/O modules use field-side power but do not draw it
from a SA power bus. The modules receive field-side power from an
external power supply that is connected to the module RTB.
For example, the 5069-OB16 and 5069-OB16F modules use Local
Actuator (LA) terminals, that is, LA+ and LA- terminals for all
module channels.
