Introduction
Ethernet - 1757-FFLD
Linking Device Example
ControlLogix Controller with
the 1756-ENBT Module
Create an RSLogix 5000 Software Project
This section describes how to set up a linking device with a Logix5000 controller
by using the RSLogix 5000 software. Examples show the 1757-FFLD linking
device but procedures are similar for the 1757-FFLDC linking device, which
bridges H1 field devices to Logix controllers via the ControlNet network.

The 1757-FFLD linking device uses the Ethernet/IP network to connect to an
H1 segment so fieldbus devices can communicate with ControlLogix controllers.

IMPORTANT
In this illustration, the 1757-FFLD linking device does the following:
• Serves as a bridge between the EtherNet/IP and H1 networks.
• Provides connectivity for Foundation Fieldbus devices to
Logix controllers.
