MicroLogix 1100
Description
The MicroLogix 1100 is our newest family of controllers to join the popular MicroLogix
1000, MicroLogix 1200, and MicroLogix 1500 controllers, and is designed to broaden
application coverage through embedded analog inputs, Ethernet communications and
visualization capabilities. MicroLogix 1100 controllers maintain the same critical features
you have come to expect from the MicroLogix family, and expand that capability to include
true online editing. MicroLogix 1100 controllers complement our low-end controllers for
applications that require up to 80 digital I/O.
Each MicroLogix 1100 contains two embedded analog inputs, with 10 digital inputs and 6
digital outputs. The controller may also expand its I/O capabilities using the same
modules as the MicroLogix 1200. Up to four of the 1762 I/O modules can be used with a
single MicroLogix 1100 controller.
Utilizing the latest version of our world class RSLogix 500 programming software, the
MicroLogix 1100 controller may be programmed with an instruction set that is common
with the MicroLogix 1000, MicroLogix 1200, MicroLogix 1500 and SLC 500 families of
controllers. RSLogix 500 Starter, Standard, and Professional all support the MicroLogix
1100, including its online editing capabilities.
Each controller supports a built-in RS-232 / RS-485 combo port for serial and networked
communication and a second built-in EtherNet/IP port, which supports Ethernet peer-to-
peer messaging.
An embedded LCD screen allows you to monitor controller and I/O status, as well as make
changes to bit and integer data.
A field-upgradable flash operating system protects your investment and ensures you will
always be up-to-date with the latest enhancements. The controller can be easily updated
with the latest firmware via a Web site download.
y Through RS-232, we support DF1 Full Duplex / DF1 Half Duplex Master and Slave / DF1 Radio Modem / ASCII. Additionally, DH-485,
Modbus™ RTU Master and Slave are also supported through the 1761-NET-AIC module– see "Through RS-485" below
y Through RS-485, we support direct interface to DH-485 and Modbus RTU Master / Slave networks (without an external electrical
interface converter)
y Communication Channel 1 consists of an embedded RJ45 port that supports EtherNet/IP for peer-to-peer messaging. This 10/100 Mbps
port supports BOOTP and DHCP
y Communications toggle push button that allows the controller's Channel 0 port to toggle between user configured communications
parameters and factory default settings for an easy means to switch from Modbus RTU or ASCII protocols (which do not support
programming) to DF1 Full duplex (to upload / download, monitor, or edit your program), so a programming computer is able to connect to
a controller with an unknown or incorrect communication parameter settings for troubleshooting.
y Embedded real-time clock
y Optional memory module for external program backup, for program transport, and transfer to another controller. Program and data in the
controller is also battery backed for secure storage.
y Data file download protection prevents critical user data from being altered via program downloads from programming computers or
memory modules

Based on the architecture of the market-leading SLC 500 controller family, the MicroLogix
1000 brings high speed, powerful instructions and flexible communications to applications
that demand compact, cost-effective solutions.
The MicroLogix 1000 programmable controller is available in 10-point, 16-point or 32-point
digital I/O versions. Analog versions are also available with 20 digital I/O points, with 4
analog inputs (two voltage and two current) and 1 analog output (configurable for either
voltage or current).
The analog I/O circuitry for the MicroLogix 1000 units is embedded into the base
controller, not accomplished through add-on modules. So, it provides very cost-effective
analog performance.
The MicroLogix 1000 controller utilizes RSLogix 500 programming software and shares a
common instruction set with the MicroLogix 1100, MicroLogix 1200, MicroLogix 1500 and
SLC 500 families of controllers.
MicroLogix 1200
Description
The MicroLogix 1200 controllers provide more computing power and greater I/O flexibility
than the MicroLogix 1000 to solve a variety of application needs.
Available in 24 and 40-point versions, the I/O count can be expanded using rackless I/O
modules. This results in larger control systems, greater application flexibility and
expandability at a lower cost and reduced parts inventory.
A field-upgradable flash operating system ensures you will always be up-to-date with the
latest features, without having to replace hardware. The controller can be easily updated
with the latest firmware via a web site download.
Building on the features of the MicroLogix 1000, the MicroLogix 1200 also has additional
advantages.
MicroLogix 1500
Description
The MicroLogix 1500 is a world-class programmable logic control platform with even more
advanced features and performance than the MicroLogix 1200. Many of these features
allow this controller to be used in applications where much larger controllers were
required in the past.
MicroLogix 1500 architecture features an innovative two-piece design with a small
footprint. The processor and base units slide together to form the complete controller. The
processor and base are independently replaceable, allowing you to maximize your
embedded I/O, memory, and communication options while minimizing inventory stocking costs.
Bulletin 1769 Compact I/O modules expand the controller's embedded I/O offerings and
provide the additional flexibility to cover a wide range of applications. This high-
performance modular and rackless I/O platform provides front accessibility for removal
and insertion. Removable terminal blocks further lower the total system cost by reducing
start-up and maintenance time.
New features are provided with an enhanced user interface that uses function files to
consolidate programming parameters. This simplifies the user interface and increases
controller performance.
The MicroLogix 1500 includes all the features of the MicroLogix 1200, plus more.

Note: The MicroLogix 1100 controller does not provide 24V dc power for network interface
whereas all other MicroLogix controllers do. The 24V dc comms power must be provided
externally when 1761-NET-AIC or 1761-NET-ENI or 1761-NET-ENIW modules are used with
a MicroLogix 1100 controller. MicroLogix 1100 controllers provide direct connection to RS-
485 networks using the same pins used by the other MicroLogix controllers for 24V dc
communication power.
9 MicroLogix 1100 controllers do not provide 24V dc power for network interface devices. External 24V dc module power must be supplied.
7 Direct EtherNet/IP connections through MicroLogix 1100 controllers provide web server capabilities but do not support email communications.
The network interface devices can be mounted on a panel or DIN rail. See Network
Interface Devices Communication Port Identification on page 24 for device drawings.
Since RS-232 ports can only be connected point-to-point between two devices, an AIC+ (or
similar device) is required whenever a MicroLogix controller is configured for one of these
protocols and needs to communicate with more than one other device at a time. The AIC+
also provides electrical isolation between each of its three ports for a more stable
network and protection for connected devices.
When using the 1763-NC01 cable, the MicroLogix 1100 provides isolated connection to
RS-485 networks directly from the Channel 0 combo port.
Any MicroLogix controller can connect to either of the two RS-232 ports on the AIC+.
When Channel 0 on a MicroLogix 1000, 1200, or 1500 controller is connected to Port 2
(RS-232 8-pin mini-DIN) of the AIC+, the Interface Module can draw its power from the
MicroLogix controller. In all other cases, including utilizing MicroLogix 1100 controllers,
the AIC+ must be powered from an external, 24V dc power supply. The AIC+ can also be
used as an RS-232 to RS-485 converter and port isolator for any other Allen-Bradley
controller or terminal with an RS-232 port.
Since the AIC+ is not a protocol converter, all devices connected to a single AIC+ (or a
network of AIC+s) must be configured for the same communication protocol.
