The 1769-L36ERM controller is a powerful member of the CompactLogix 5370 family from Allen-Bradley. This Programmable Automation Controller (PAC) combines logic, motion, and networking in a compact, rackless design. It is specifically built for medium to large applications requiring coordinated motion control. This module delivers exceptional performance with its integrated motion over EtherNet/IP capability.
The 1769-L36ERM logic module offers 3 MB of user memory for handling complex programs and motion applications. It supports up to 30 Compact I/O modules distributed across a maximum of 3 expansion banks. This extensive I/O capacity makes it suitable for demanding automation tasks. Additionally, the controller manages up to 32 continuous tasks and 100 programmable tasks.
Communication is robust and versatile. The unit features two embedded Ethernet ports that function as a built-in switch. These ports support 10/100 Mbps data rates with auto-negotiation and use the EtherNet/IP protocol. They support DLR, Linear, and Star topologies for flexible network design. Furthermore, a USB port provides convenient access for initial configuration and troubleshooting.
A standout feature of the 1769-L36ERM is its integrated motion control over EtherNet/IP. It supports up to 16 axes of motion, making it ideal for sophisticated servo applications. Compatible drives include Kinetix 350, Kinetix 5500, Kinetix 5700, Kinetix 6500, and PowerFlex 755 drives. The controller supports Position Loop, Velocity Loop, and Torque Loop control modes.
For non-volatile memory, the controller ships with a 1784-SD1 card offering 1 GB of storage. You can upgrade this to the 1784-SD2 card for 2 GB of memory. The backplane current draw is rated appropriately for its power requirements. Its maximum power dissipation ensures efficient operation within thermal limits.
The 1769-L36ERM supports multiple IEC 61131-3 programming languages. These include Relay Ladder, Structured Text, Function Block, and Sequential Function Chart (SFC) . For configuration, use Studio 5000 Logix Designer for firmware V21.xx and later. IP address assignment can be done using BOOTP-DHCP utility or via the USB port.
This controller operates reliably in demanding industrial conditions. Its operating temperature range is from 0 to 60 degrees Celsius (32 to 140 degrees Fahrenheit). The relative humidity range is 5 to 95% without condensation. Maintaining these conditions ensures long-term reliability.
Moreover, the 1769-L36ERM is built to withstand physical stress. It tolerates an operating vibration of 5 g at 10-500 Hz. The operating shock rating is 20 g for standard installation. This robustness makes it suitable for high-vibration environments like machining and packaging.
Proper installation is critical for optimal performance. The 1769-L36ERM supports both DIN Rail and direct panel mounting without requiring a chassis. The power supply distance rating is four slots, meaning the controller must be installed within four module positions from the power supply.
Wiring must follow specific guidelines. Use copper wire rated for 90 degrees Celsius. Solid wire sizes from 22 to 14 AWG are acceptable. For stranded wire, use sizes from 22 to 16 AWG. Compatible power supplies include the 1769-PA2, 1769-PB2, 1769-PA4, and 1769-PB4.
The system uses electronic keying to prevent incompatible module installation. You can select Compatible Module, Disable Keying, or Exact Match options. This feature protects your control system from hardware mismatches.
