In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.
ArmorPoint I/O 2-Port EtherNet/IP Adapter, Series A 3 Environment and Enclosure This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage Category II applications (as ATTENTION 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.
4 ArmorPoint I/O 2-Port EtherNet/IP Adapter, Series A Make sure all connectors and caps are securely tightened to properly seal the ATTENTION connections against leaks and maintain IP enclosure type requirements. To comply with the CE Low Voltage Directive (LVD), all connected I/O must be ATTENTION powered from a source compliant with the following: Safety Extra Low Voltage (SELV) or Protected Extra Low Voltage (PELV).

To effectively use your adapter, note the following considerations. Determine Compatibility RSLogix 5000 version 17 or greater must be used for the 1738-AENTR’s Add-on Profile. The 1738-AENTR adapters will accept I/O connections with the electronic keying for the 1738-AENT. This allows the 1738-AENTR adapter to be used in a daisy-chain topology with the 1738-AENT’s profile...
