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://literature.rockwellautomation.com) 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.

General Safety Information
This application example is for advanced users and
assumes that you are trained and experienced in safety
system requirements.
A risk assessment should be performed to make sure all
task and hazard combinations have been identified and
addressed. The risk assessment may require additional
circuitry to reduce the risk to a tolerable level. Safety
circuits must take into consideration safety distance
calculations which are not part of the scope of this
document.
Contact Rockwell Automation to find out more about our safety risk
assessment services.
Description This application example describes how to pass standard, non-safety data
such as the status of the safety-rated inputs from a SmartGuard 600
controller to a standard controller over an EtherNet/IP network.
The SmartGuard 600 safety controller is programmed by using
RSNetWorx for DeviceNet software. You must be familiar with this
software to use this document.
The MicroLogix 1100 controller is programmed by using RSLogix 500
software. You must be familiar with this software to use this document.
Safety Function
The data shared between the SmartGuard 600 controller and the
MicroLogix 1100 controller is not safety-rated data and should not be
used for safety-rated control.

EtherNet/IP
MicroLogix 1100
SmartGuard 600
Configure To configure the SmartGuard 600 controller, you set the IP address,
configure the communications driver, and define the EtherNet/IP target
assemblies.
Setting the SmartGuard 600 Controller’s IP Address
To set the IP address, you can use the Rockwell BOOTP utility, a
standalone program that incorporates the functionality of standard
BOOTP software with a user-friendly graphical interface. You can
download it from
www.ab.com/networks/bootp.html. The SmartGuard
controller must have BOOTP enabled (factory default) to use the utility.
Follow these steps to configure the SmartGuard controller by using the
BOOTP utility.
1. Run the BOOTP software.
The BOOTP Request History panel shows the hardware addresses of
devices issuing BOOTP request.
2. Double-click the hardware address of the SmartGuard controller you
want to configure.
The MAC address is written on the side label of your SmartGuard
controller.
The New Entry pop-up window opens, showing the SmartGuard
controller’s Ethernet Address (MAC).

3. Type the IP Address, Hostname (if applicable), and Description you
want to assign to the SmartGuard controller, and click OK.
The SmartGuard controller is added to the Relation List, displaying
the Ethernet Address (MAC) and corresponding IP Address,
Hostname, and Description.
Configure an Ethernet Driver for the Network
Follow these steps to configure a communication driver.
1. Start RSLinx Classic software.
2. Select Communications
> Configure Drivers to set up
communication to the controller.
3. From the pull-down list of Available Driver Types, add the Ethernet
devices driver and click Add New.
