Preface
Studio 5000 Environment The Studio 5000 Automation Engineering & Design Environment™ combines
engineering and design elements into a common environment. The first element
is the Studio 5000 Logix Designer™ application. The Logix Designer application
is the rebranding of RSLogix™ 5000 software and will continue to be the product
to program Logix5000™ controllers for discrete, process, batch, motion, safety,
and drive-based solutions.
The Studio 5000® environment is the foundation for the future of Rockwell
Automation® engineering design tools and capabilities. The Studio 5000
environment is the one place for design engineers to develop all of the elements of
their control system.
1756HP-TIME Module
Overview
This user manual describes the functionality, installation, configuration, and
operation of the 1756HP-TIME module, series B, firmware revision 3.001.
The 1756HP-TIME module provides accurate time synchronization on different
interfaces by using Global Positioning System (GPS) technology. The
1756HP-TIME module can obtain time from various sources, and provide time
synchronization on other devices by acting as a gateway between different time
synchronization methods and standards.

Preface
Time synchronization is accomplished by using these methods, standards, and
protocols:
•The ControlLogix® backplane for Coordinated System Time (CST) and
Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) conversion.
•Inter-range Instrumentation Group, code B (IRIG-B) standards.
•Precision Time Protocol (PTP) on Ethernet and the ControlLogix
backplane.
•Network Time Protocol (NTP) on Ethernet.
The 1756HP-TIME module provides GPS position in the form of latitude,
longitude, and altitude (LLA).
The 1756HP-TIME module provides course and route information in the form
of ground speed (knots) with heading in the form of degrees from true north.

Chapter 1 Installation
GPS Antenna Install the GPS antenna with a clear view of the sky (do not install the antenna
where objects can obstruct the view of the antenna to the sky). If an antenna is
installed with a limited view of the sky, the GPS receiver can have a low satellite
lock count, or be unable to obtain a lock. A limited view of the sky can cause
inaccurate time synchronization.

Software Use this software to configure and operate the 1756HP-TIME module:
•The Studio 5000 Logix Designer application
•The Add-on Profile (AOP) for the 1756HP-TIME module, available for
download at this link:

Chapter 2
Setup
BOOTP Use BOOTP to set the initial IP address for the 1756HP-TIME module. The
module comes from the factory with BOOTP enabled.
The BOOTP/DHCP server is a standalone server that you can use to set an IP
address.
Access the BOOTP/DHCP server from one of these locations:
•Programs > Rockwell Software > BOOTP-DHCP Server
•Tools directory on the Studio 5000 environment installation CD
If you have not installed the BOOTP/DHCP server, you can download and
install it from http://www.ab.com/linked/networks/ethernet/bootp.html.
To set the IP address of the module with a BOOTP/DHCP server, follow the
steps found in EtherNet/IP Network Configuration User Manual, publication
ENET-UM001.
Factory Defaults If the module fails or becomes inoperable, the module reboots with
factory-loaded boot software. The display informs you of the error and suggests a
method to fix the error. If there is a firmware error, use the ControlFLASH
software to restore the module to a working condition.

Chapter 2 Setup
ControlFLASH Software Use the ControlFLASH software to upgrade the software to a newer version.
For more information on the ControlFLASH software and how to use it, see
ControlFLASH Firmware Upgrade Software User Manual, publication 1756-
UM105.
The latest firmware can be found at this link: http://www.hiprom.com/Pages/
Products/1756_CLX/1756HP-TIME/web/1756HP-TIME.htm.
The Logix Designer
Application Configuration
Before you can program the 1756HP-TIME module, the AOP for the module
must be installed. You also need admin rights for the module to view and
configure the AOP.
The installer for the AOP can be found at this link:
http://www.hiprom.com/Pages/Products/1756_CLX/1756HP-TIME/web/
1756HP-TIME.htm.
Follow these steps to configure the 1756HP-TIME module in the Logix
Designer application.
1. Double-click the 1756HP-TIME module in the I/O tree in the Logix
Designer application.
The New Module dialog box appears.
IMPORTANT
Each 1756HP-TIME module is programmed to work with a single Logix5000
controller.
IMPORTANT
There is no direct communication between the 1756HP-TIME module Ethernet
ports and a Logix5000 controller. If the 1756HP-TIME module resides in a
remote Logix rack, it needs to communicate through an EN2T(R) module in the
same rack.
