FLEX 5000 Module Operation in a Logix 5000
Control System

IMPORTANT You cannot use FLEX 5000 I/O modules with all Logix 5000 controllers.
For example, you can use FLEX 5000 I/O modules with CompactLogix®
5380 and ControlLogix® 5580 controllers but not with CompactLogix
5370 and ControlLogix 5570 controllers.
You can use FLEX 5000 I/O modules with Logix 5000 controllers as
remote I/O modules only.
Throughout this publication, the term Logix 5000 controller refers to
the controllers with which you can use FLEX 5000 I/O modules in a
given capacity. The term does not refer to all Logix 5000 controllers.
For the most current information on the Logix 5000 controllers with
which you can use FLEX 5000 I/O modules, see the product description
at rok.auto/flex5000IO.
The Logix 5000 controllers use FLEX 5000 standard and safety I/O modules to control devices
in a control system. The controllers access the modules over an EtherNet/IP network. The
FLEX 5000 I/O modules use terminal base (TB) assemblies to connect field-side wiring.

The FLEX 5000 I/O modules use the Producer/Consumer network communication model. This
communication is an intelligent data exchange between modules and other system devices in
which each module produces data without first being polled.

You use FLEX 5000 I/O modules as remote I/O modules that are accessible via an EtherNet/IP
network. The modules are installed to the right of a FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter.

The Logix 5000 controllers can exchange the data with the modules over an EtherNet/IP
network. Figure 1 shows a CompactLogix 5380 standard controller with a FLEX 5000
EtherNet/IP adapter and standard I/O modules. The standard controllers do not support the
safety I/O modules.

Controller and Software Controller and programming software compatibility requirements apply when you use
FLEX 5000 standard and safety I/O modules. A module type and how it is used affect which
Compatibility requirements apply.

You must also consider Studio 5000 Logix Designer® application version requirements when
you design your system. For example, you can use FLEX 5000 safety I/O modules with only
version 32 or later of the Studio 5000 Logix Designer application. Similarly, you can use a
PlantPAx® system or High Availability with only version 33 or later of the Studio 5000 Logix
Designer application.

Controller Compatibility
The compatibility between Logix 5000 controllers and FLEX 5000 I/O modules varies based on
module type, whether the module is standard or safety.

While you must pair safety I/O with a safety controller, you can also pair standard I/O with a
safety controller. For example, the ControlLogix 5580 controllers are compatible with
FLEX 5000 standard I/O modules. The GuardLogix® 5580 controllers are compatible with FLEX
5000 standard and safety I/O modules.

IMPORTANT The Logix Safety Instrumented System (Logix SIS) safety controller
requires the use of Studio 5000 Logix Designer application version
37.00.00 or later and FLEX 5000 adapter firmware revision 6.011 or
later.

IMPORTANT The ControlLogix 5580 High Availability controllers that use Studio 5000
Logix Designer application version 33.00.00 or later require firmware
revision 5.011 or later for the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter.

Concurrent Communication Concurrent communication is available with FLEX 5000 safety I/O modules. It occurs between
Logix SIS controllers and the I/O modules via an EtherNet/IP network.
with FLEX 5000 Safety I/O
Modules You must configure a 1756-EN4TR EtherNet/IP communication module in each Logix SIS
chassis to use concurrent communication and not use IP swapping mode.

With concurrent communication, data transmission between 1756-EN4TR EtherNet/IP

communication modules and the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter is redundant at the logical
and physical levels.

IMPORTANT The FLEX 5000 adapters can support both concurrent communication
and non-concurrent communication simultaneously, however the
FLEX 5000 standard I/O modules do not support concurrent
communication.
If your FLEX 5000 I/O system includes safety and standard I/O modules,
you must configure a second EtherNet/IP communication module such
as a 1756-EN2TR or 1756-EN4TR which is not configured for concurrent
communications. The second EtherNet/IP communication module will
use IP swapping mode to connect to the standard I/O modules.
In this scenario, you must connect to the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP
adapter twice, once through the 1756-EN4TR EtherNet/IP
communication module to connect to safety modules and again
through the second EtherNet/IP communication module to add
standard I/O modules to the GuardLogix 5580 controller’s Logix
Designer application project.
You can only use concurrent communication with FLEX 5000 safety I/O modules if you use the
following components in your system.

Logical Level
Concurrent communication uses a logical CIP™ connection to the I/O module. Logix SIS
controllers open the concurrent communication path to the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter.

The controllers operate in parallel to synchronize the data. Each controller sends a data
packet to the 1756-EN4TR EtherNet/IP adapter in its local chassis. The data packets are
identical. The adapters transmit the data on the EtherNet/IP network. As a result, the same
output values occur simultaneously. Thus, data is duplicated.

When data arrives at the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter, it converts the concurrent
communication to standard communication and sends one data packet to the I/O module. The
I/O module establishes a signal value that is set on the terminal screws.

A similar pattern is followed for input data that is transmitted from the FLEX 5000 safety I/O
module to the Logix SIS controllers. The I/O module sends one data packet to the FLEX 5000
EtherNet/IP adapter, the adapter then sends identical data packets onto the 1756-EN4TR
EtherNet/IP adapters in the redundant chassis. Thus, the data is duplicated. Each adapter then
sends a single data packet to the GuardLogix 5580 controller in its chassis.

Physical Level
During transmission, the duplicated data passes along physical connections between the
1756-EN4TR EtherNet/IP communication modules and the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter. The
physical network redundancy is achieved via redundant paths between the 1756-EN4TR
EtherNet/IP communication module and the FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter as follows:
• PRP network - Duplicated data at the physical level for each path
• DLR network - Providing redundant paths

For more information on how concurrent communication occurs, see the ControlLogix
EtherNet/IP Network Devices User Manual, publication 1756-UM004.

 Chapter 2
FLEX 5000 Adapter Power Requirements
Power I/O Modules and The adapters provide system-side power that powers the I/O modules and lets them transfer
data and execute logic.
Field-side Devices
• The system-side power is provided through the Module (MOD) Power connector and is
passed to each module as it is added to the system. The system-side power is also
known as MOD power.
• The field-side power is provided through the Sensor/Actuator (SA) Power connectors on
each modules terminal base and is added to the system. Field-side power is also known
as SA power.
System power begins at the EtherNet/IP adapter and passes across the I/O module internal
circuitry via power buses. The MOD power bus and SA power bus are isolated from each other.

IMPORTANT We recommend the following power supplies for FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP
adapters:

Recommended FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP Adapter

For more information, see Switched Mode Power Supply Specifications
Technical Data, publication 1606-TD002.

Power Connectors Connect the external power supplies to removable terminal blocks (RTBs) to provide MOD
power and SA power. The adapters use different RTBs to connect power.

FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapters use one 4-terminal power RTB.

Chapter 2 FLEX 5000 Adapter Power Requirements

MOD Power Bus The MOD power is a DC power source that is required to operate the adapter and the I/O
modules installed with it. Remember the following:
• The adapter and the I/O modules that are installed with it use only one MOD power bus.
• Every module draws current from the MOD power bus and passes the remaining current
to the next module.
• You must limit the MOD power source to 10 A, max, at 18...32V DC.
• We recommend that you use an external power supply that is adequately sized for the
total MOD power bus current drawn by the adapter and I/O modules.
For example, if the total MOD power current draw is 5 A, you can use a MOD power supply
that is limited to 5 A.
You must consider current inrush requirements when you calculate the total MOD
power bus current draw in the system.

When the MOD power source is turned On, that is, I/O modules receive system-side power, the
following occurs.
1. The adapter draws current from the MOD power bus current and passes the remaining
current through to the next module.
2. The next module draws MOD power bus current and passes the remaining current
through to the next module.
3. The process continues until MOD power bus current needs are met for all modules.

For more information on the current that the modules draw from the MOD power bus, see the
FLEX 5000 Module Specifications Technical Data, publication 5094-TD001.

You must purchase SFP modules separately. For SFP module specifications, see Stratix®
Ethernet Device Specifications Technical Data, publication 1783-TD002.

SFP Module Compatibility

The SFP module media and standard must be compatible in order to maintain transceiver
module functionality. Use official Allen-Bradley® modules that can be correctly detected and
initialized by the firmware. For more information on identifying correctly initialized modules,
see SFP Module Status on page 17.

WARNING: Using a transceiver module that is not recommended may cause

data loss, hardware damage, or may interfere with control process.

Install a SFP module You can insert or remove the SFP modules during run time.

To confirm that your SFP module is properly inserted, the corresponding LINK status indicator
is ON if the network cable is connected between transceiver module and an operating network
device.

IMPORTANT • The fiber SFP modules have no auto-negotiation capabilities. You must
use identical fiber modules at either end of a fiber cable and settings.
• The copper RJ45 modules have auto-negotiation capabilities.
SFP Module Status

To check the status of an inserted SFP module, do the following:

1. On the Adapter webpage go to Diagnostic ➝ Network Settings.
2. Locate the SFP module type under the Ethernet Port information.

Rockwell Automation Publication 5094-UM005D-EN-P - September 2024 17

Connect to the EtherNet/IP Network
You must set the IP address on the adapter for the adapter to operate on an EtherNet/IP
network.

The following are adapter conditions in which you set the IP address:
• Set the IP address for the first time after it powers up in the out-of-box state.

IMPORTANT The adapter powers up in the out-of-box state the first time you
install it. However, the adapter also returns to the out-of-box
state if the adapter is configured so that you must set the IP
address each time that power is cycled.
• Change the IP address after it has been set.

IMPORTANT Verify that the IP address for the adapter is not a duplicate of any
existing devices on the network.

Requirements
To set the IP address, have the following:
• EtherNet/IP drivers installed on the programming workstation
• MAC ID from the device QR code, which is located next to the IP ADDRESS label on the
device
• Recommended IP address for the device

Set the IP Address When the adapter is in the out-of-box state, the following apply regarding IP addresses:
• The adapters ship without an IP address.
• The rotary switches on the FLEX 5000 adapter are set to 999.
• The adapter is DHCP-enabled which means the adapter is configured to obtain an IP
address via a DHCP server.
• If there is no DHCP server or the DHCP server is not configured to set the IP address, you
must set the IP Address manually.
• The adapter issues requests for an IP address via DHCP until an IP address is set by
using one of the tools that are described in this section.
• The adapter is configured so that it must obtain the IP address over DHCP each time
that power is cycled.
• You can change the adapter configuration so that it is not required to obtain the IP
address over DHCP each time that power is cycled.

The FLEX 5000 adapters support the following methods to set/change the IP address:
• Rotary Switches. See Set the IP Address with the Rotary Switches on page 20.
• FactoryTalk Linx Software. See Set the IP Address with the FactoryTalk Linx Software on
page 20.
• BOOTP/DHCP utility(a)
• RSLinx® Classic software(a)

(a) For more information on how to use these methods, see EtherNet/IP Network Devices User Manual, publication ENET-UM006.

Chapter 4 Connect to the EtherNet/IP Network

Set the IP Address with the Rotary Switches

If the network uses 192.168.1.x, use the rotary switches on the adapter to set the last octet of
the network IP address. Valid numbers range from 001…254.

IMPORTANT The rotary switches only set the IP address when power is cycled.

WARNING: When you change switch settings on the adapter while power is
On, an electric arc can occur. This could cause an explosion in hazardous
location installations. Be sure that power is removed or the area is
nonhazardous before proceeding.
From firmware revision 2.011 onwards, if you change the rotary switches
when the device is powered up, a minor recoverable fault occurs on the
device in order to alert you of an unexpected configuration change.

IMPORTANT The FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapters do not have a reset button.

Rotary switches – The bottom switch represents the first digit in the octet, the middle switch
represents the second digit, and the top switch represents the third digit.

a. Select Manually configure IP settings.
b. Complete the IP address and other fields as necessary.
c. Select Apply.

4. When prompted, select Yes to confirm that you want to assign the IP address.

Select the Network The FLEX 5000 EtherNet/IP adapter supports two types of network redundancy:
Redundancy Mode • DLR (Device Level Ring)
• PRP (Parallel Redundancy Protocol)

In these modes, all EtherNet/IP ports of the adapter are used to provide redundant network
paths.

IMPORTANT Make sure that both EtherNet/IP ports are enabled and configured
correctly (recommended setting: auto-negotiation is ON).

To select one of the network redundancy modes, do the following:

1. Power down the adapter.
2. Use the PRP/DLR switch to select the redundancy mode.
3. Power up the adapter.

Before you select one of the redundancy modes, verify your network settings to determine the
redundancy mode used by your network.

IMPORTANT If you switch the adapter to a redundancy mode that is different from
your network, the adapter disconnects from the network.

Rockwell Automation Publication 5094-UM005D-EN-P - September 2024 21

Chapter 4 Connect to the EtherNet/IP Network

IMPORTANT You cannot switch the network redundancy mode while the adapter is
running. A minor recoverable fault occurs to warn about the
unintentional change to the network redundancy mode.

Performance Impact of PRP Network Redundancy Mode

When you enable the PRP network redundancy mode, there is an impact on the maximum
possible performance of the adapter for I/O connections.
Table 3 - Maximum Packet per Second (pps) Values for I/O Connections
Redundancy Mode Maximum pps for I/O Connections for all Traffic, to and from Chassis
DLR 100,000
PRP 50,000

To achieve the best possible performance when using the PRP network, make sure that LAN A
and LAN B are symmetric. Both networks should have the same topology and utilize the same
type of devices. The PRP networks work best when the path for redundant network packets is
the same or very similar in both networks.

For more information about PRP and how to configure a PRP network, see EtherNet/IP Parallel
Redundancy Protocol Application Technique, publication ENET-AT006.

Protection Mode The Protection Mode is a state where the device is operational, but has implemented defenses
against disruptive changes that would take the product out of service for the process. There
are two types of Protection Mode that are Implicit and Explicit. These modes differ in how a
device is entered in such state and what type of action is prohibited in each of these modes.

An Implicit Protection Mode is a security enhancement that is automatically triggered as soon

as one of the following occur:
• The adapter bridges I/O connections.
• The adapter is a target of I/O connections.
An Explicit Protection Mode is a security enhancement, supported with firmware revision 2.011
onwards, that is triggered when a certain rotary switches pattern is selected.

This security enhancement occurs on the I/O module level and helps prevent unauthorized
configuration changes that can affect system behavior and cause unintended and unforeseen
changes.

Enter and Exit Implicit Protection Mode

The adapter enters Implicit Protection Mode as soon as I/O connections are established
through or to the adapter (status connection). The adapter exits Implicit Protection Mode as
soon as all I/O connections through or to the adapter (status connection) are stopped.

Enter and Exit Explicit Protection Mode

The adapter enters Explicit Protection Mode when rotary switches are set to value 900 during
boot up.

To enter Explicit Protection Mode, do the following:

1. Note the current position of the rotary switches.
2. Power down the device.
3. Set the rotary switches to 900, then power up the device.

Rockwell Automation Publication 5094-UM005D-EN-P - September 2024 31

Chapter 5 Configure the Adapter

The adapter confirms entering into Explicit Protection Mode with the following status
indicator flashing sequence:
- OK indicator is flashing red
- All other indicators are off.
4. Power down the device and restore previous values to the rotary switches.
5. Power up the device to normal work with Explicit Protection Mode enabled.

To exit Explicit Protection Mode, do the following:

1. Note the current position of the rotary switches.
2. Power down the device.
3. Set the rotary switches to 000, then power up the device.
The adapter confirms exiting Explicit Protection Mode with the following status
indicator flashing sequence:
- OK indicator is flashing red
- All other indicators are off.
4. Power down the device and restore previous values to the rotary switches.
5. Power up the device to normal work with Explicit Protection Mode disabled.

Restrictions Imposed By Implicit Protection Mode

The Protection Mode prevents access to services that are not required after the device is
configured and in normal operation. The Protection Mode disables features that can make the
device vulnerable to disruptive actions. By doing so, the Protection Mode helps to reduce the
attack surface.

When it is in Protection Mode, the adapter prevents execution of the following tasks:
• Changing Ethernet configuration settings, such as port speed
• Changing IP settings, such as IP address, mask, and DHCP mode
• Updating the adapter firmware revision
• Disabling or re-enabling external product ports
• Performing remote adapter resets
• Enabling or disabling the supervisor mode in DLR mode
• Changing the following Advanced Network Configuration parameters:
- Supervisor Precedence
- Beacon Interval
- Beacon Timeout
- DLR Protocol VLAN ID
• Changing Internet Protocol parameter Host Name

• Changing Internet Protocol parameter Host Name

Perform Tasks When Restricted

If the adapter is in Protection Mode and you attempt to perform any of the restricted tasks,
you are alerted that such a task cannot be performed because the adapter is in Protection
Mode.

The following are example alerts that result from an attempt to set IP values on the adapter
when the adapter is in Protection Mode:

IMPORTANT The Protection Mode is not configurable.

• Alert example in RSLinx Classic software

Rockwell Automation Publication 5094-UM005D-EN-P - September 2024 33

Chapter 5 Configure the Adapter

• Alert example in FactoryTalk Linx Software

If the adapter is not in Protection Mode, the adapter does not reject attempts to perform the
tasks that are described above.

For example, after the adapter is initially powered up, but no I/O connections are established
yet, the adapter is not in Explicit Protection Mode. Additionally, if the adapter is not in Explicit
Protection Mode then you can attempt to update the adapter firmware revision and the
adapter does not reject the attempt.
If the adapter enters Protection Mode each time the adapter powers up,
check application controllers to determine if there are active I/O
connections that are opened via the adapter.

Enable or Disable HTTP You can enable or disable the HTTP server and SNMP server as an added security feature from
firmware revision 2.011 or later. The HTTP server and SNMP server are disabled by default from
Server and SNMP Server firmware revision 3.011 or later. Disabling these servers in conjunction with using the Explicit
Protection Mode decreases the possibility of a security breach.

Enable the HTTP Server in Studio 5000 Logix Designer Application

To change the settings in the Add-on Profile Server pages, make sure that the adapter is not in
Explicit Protection Mode. To exit Explicit Protection Mode, see Enter and Exit Explicit

Logix Designer application version 33.00.00 require firmware revision
5.011 or later for the FLEX 5000 adapter.

The default connection for High Availability projects is Multicast. If you change the
connection to Unicast, a ‘Controller redundancy enabled, unicast connection not
supported’ message appears when you try to download the project. Logix SIS is an
exception to this as it uses unicast connections for concurrent communications
to safety modules even in high availability systems.

precedence
Supervisor mode Enabled/Disabled depends on the option selected at Network DLR dialog.
You can configure a supervisor precedence number for each device configured as a ring
supervisor. The highest possible supervisor precedence value is 255.
When multiple nodes are enabled as supervisor, the node with the highest precedence
value is assigned as the active ring supervisor. The other nodes automatically become
back-up supervisors.
We recommend the following:
Supervisor precedence • Configure at least one back-up supervisor node.
• Set your desired Active Ring Supervisor with a relatively high supervisor-precedence
value compared to the back-up nodes.
• Keep track of the supervisor precedence values of your network.
If multiple supervisors are configured with the same precedence value (the factory
default value for all supervisor-capable devices is zero), the node with the numerically
highest MAC address becomes the active supervisor.
Displays whether this node is the active ring supervisor (Active), a back-up supervisor
Supervisor status (Back-up), a ring node, or part of a linear network.

 Appendix A FLEX 5000 Adapter Diagnostics

PRP Nodes
The PRP Nodes diagnostic webpage displays all active PRP nodes. Any node that the adapter
module communicates with displays on the PRP Nodes page, including DANs, SANs, RedBoxes,
and VDANs.

IMPORTANT The PRP Statistics data is available only when the adapter is in PRP
mode. Under Network redundancy mode, the PRP setting displays
“Active”.

The fields to monitor are Receiving on Port A and Receiving on Port B. If either of those fields
are False, it indicates a loss of PRP redundancy. Some IP addresses can display as 0.0.0.0. An
IP address displayed as 0.0.0.0 is an indication that the adapter is not communicating directly
with that device.

Concurrent Application Connections

The Concurrent Application Connections webpage displays the parameters and information of
established concurrent application connections.

Concurrent Bridge Connections

The Concurrent Bridge Connections webpage displays the parameters and information of
established concurrent bridged connections.

IMPORTANT • The concurrent connection supports 6 safety HART I/O modules and 2
other I/O modules.
• The synchronized Logix SIS solution utilizes two standard connection
resources to establish one concurrent connection to the adapter.

Reset the FLEX 5000 To reset the FLEX 5000 adapter to its default settings, complete the following steps.
Adapter 1. Power down the adapter.
2. Set the rotary switches to 888.
3. Power up the adapter.
4. Wait for the adapter power-up sequence to complete.
The power-up sequence is complete, and the adapter has returned to its factory default
setting when the status indicator states are as follows:
- OK indicator is flashing red.
- All other indicators are off.
5. Power down the adapter.
6. Set the rotary switches to the desired address.

IMPORTANT If you do not want to set the IP address via the rotary switches,
set them to 999.
After the adapter powers up, set the IP address.
7. Power up the adapter.

Although an end cap is not required for proper operation, it helps the
adapter to diagnose backplane issues, it protects contacts at the end of the
terminal base, and it prevents electrical shorts or arcs from occurring in
hazardous areas.
The use of end caps is recommended.
