(2)
• 1769-PA4
• 1769-PB4
(2) Armor Compact GuardLogix controller systems have this power supply inside their IP67-rated housings.
Communication
networks components
Any of the following:
• EtherNet/IP network via built-in EtherNet/IP network ports (safety and standard
communication)
• DeviceNet network via a 1769-SDN module (only for standard communication)
(3)
• USB connection only for programming and firmware upgrades
(3) For safety communication, a bridge module is required that goes from Ethernet to DeviceNet; see page 102.
Software • Logix Designer application, version 28.00.00 or later
•RSLinx® Classic software, version 3.80.xx or later
• RSNetWorx™ for DeviceNet software, version 25.00.00 or later
Secure Digital (SD) card
for external nonvolatile
memory

memory
• 1784-SD2 card - Available for separate purchase and offers 2 GB of memory
I/O modules
(1)
(1) Armor Compact GuardLogix controller systems do not support I/O inside their IP67-rated housings. To get I/O, you must connect
via EtherNet/IP to distributed I/O.
• Local expansion modules- 1769 Compact I/O modules
• Distributed I/O - Multiple I/O module product lines over DeviceNet and EtherNet/IP
networks
Reset button If pressed and held in when the controller power ups, this button clears the user program
from the internal memory of the controller and from the internal safety partner.
