Important User Information

Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of

electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and

Maintenance of Solid State Controls (Publication SGI-1.1 available from your local

Rockwell Automation sales office or online at

http://www.rockwellautomation.com/literature) describes some important

differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.

Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety of uses for solid state

equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy

themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.

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.

The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes.

Because of the many variables and requirements associated with any particular

installation, Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot assume responsibility or liability for

actual use based on the examples and diagrams.

No patent liability is assumed by Rockwell Automation, Inc. with respect to use of

information, circuits, equipment, or software described in this manual.

considerations.

WARNING

Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can

cause an explosion in a hazardous environment, which may lead

to personal injury or death, property damage, or economic loss.

IMPORTANT

Identifies information that is critical for successful application

and understanding of the product.

ATTENTION

Identifies information about practices or circumstances that can

lead to personal injury or death, property damage, or economic

loss. Attentions help you identify a hazard, avoid a hazard, and

recognize the consequence

SHOCK HAZARD

Labels may be located on or inside the equipment (for example,

drive or motor) to alert people that dangerous voltage may be

present.

BURN HAZARD

Labels may be located on or inside the equipment (for example,

drive or motor) to alert people that surfaces may be dangerous

temperatures.

Introduction

This publication provides information needed to use the 1757-FFLD,

F

OUNDATION Fieldbus Linking Device. The linking device serves as a link

between Fieldbus Foundation’s High Speed Ethernet (HSE) and H1 segments.

It also serves as a link between EtherNet/IP and H1 segments. The linking

device provides connectivity for F

OUNDATION Fieldbus devices to Logix

controllers, such as ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and FlexLogix.

This publication defines the Foundation Fieldbus function blocks and

function block parameters that reside in the linking device.

This publication also provides user information about the linking device’s Web

pages. The Web pages provide status and diagnostic information about the

linking device. The information found on these pages assists with configuring

and maintaining a F

OUNDATION Fieldbus system.

For information on configuring and programming a linking device in a system

with Logix controllers, see the RSFieldbus Application Guide, publication

RSFBUS-AT001.

1-2 Use RSLogix 5000 Software to Create a Linking Device

Create a Project for the

Controller

To configure and program a Logix5000 controller, use RSLogix 5000 software

to create and manage a project for the controller.

Project – The file on your workstation (or server) that

stores the logic, configuration, data, and documentation

for a controller.

• The file for the project has an .ACD extension.

• When you create a project, the project name is

the same as the name of the controller.

• The controller name is independent of the project

name. You can rename either the project name or

the controller name.

Name of the Project

If you rename the project or controller, both names are

shown.

Name of the Controller

Controller organizer – graphical overview of the

project. Use the controller organizer to navigate to the

various components of a project.

To open a folder and show its contents, either:

• Double-click the folder.

• Click the + sign.

To close a folder and hide its contents, either:

• Double-click the folder.

• Click the – sign.

Create a Project

Conventions for Names

Throughout a Logix5000 project, you define names for the different elements

of the project such as the controller, data addresses (tags), routines, I/O

modules, etc. As you enter names, follow these rules:

• must start with a letter or an underscore

• only letters, numbers, and underscores (_)

• ≤ 40 characters

• no consecutive or trailing underscores

• not case sensitive

1. Start RSLogix 5000 software.

2. Click the New button.

3. Specify the general configuration for the controller.

Some items apply to certain controllers.

a. Type of Controller

b. Major Revision of Firmware for the Controller

c. Name for the Controller

d. Chassis Size for the Controller

e. Slot Number for the Controller

Add the Communication

Module, Linking Device

and the Logix Blocks

To communicate with the controller, you add a bridge (local communication

module), the linking device, and then the Logix blocks. Within the I/O

Configuration folder, organize the modules into a hierarchy (tree/branch,

parent/child)

Add the Bridge Module

1. Right click on the 1756 Backplane and choose New Module.

2. Select the 1756-ENBT module and click OK.

3. Select the module revision and then OK.

Use RSLogix 5000 Software to Create a Linking Device 1-7

Add the Logix Blocks

1. Repeat the New Module procedure to add Logix Blocks to the linking

device.

The Logix block facilitates cascading control between a ControlLogix (CLX)

environment and a fieldbus environment. The Logix block takes signals

generated in either environment and sends them to the other.

You can use the Logix block to send or receive 8 analog or 8 discrete signals

per Logix block to or from a Logix controller. You can use up to 16 Logix

blocks within a single linking device.

For more information on logix blocks, refer to chapter 3.
