EtherNet/IP, DH+ and Remote I/O Communication
The AN-X2-AB-DHRIO provides Ethernet connectivity for data exchange with legacy Allen-Bradley DH+ and Remote I/O systems.
The DH+ function supports messaging, programming access, and data transfer between EtherNet/IP and DH+ networks.
The Remote I/O function operates as an adapter or scanner for compatible legacy Remote I/O architectures.
Two 3-pin Phoenix terminal connectors provide physical interfaces for the DH+ and Remote I/O network connections.
The Ethernet interface uses a 10/100 Base-T RJ45 port with automatic crossover functionality.
Supported DH+ and RIO communication rates are 57.6, 115.2, and 230.4 kbps.
A built-in web server provides configuration access without requiring dedicated proprietary configuration software.
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQ)
Q: What power supply does the AN-X2-AB-DHRIO require?
A: The gateway accepts 12 to 24 VDC and consumes a maximum of 6 W.
Q: Which physical network interfaces are provided?
A: The unit provides one RJ45 Ethernet port and two 3-pin Phoenix network connectors.
Q: Can the gateway directly replace a 1756-DHRIO module?
A: The supplied data identifies the AN-X2-AB-DHRIO as a replacement for the obsolete 1756-DHRIO module.
Field Installation Guidelines
- Mount the gateway on a standard 35 mm DIN rail with adequate enclosure clearance.
- Connect a regulated 12 to 24 VDC supply while observing correct polarity and terminal identification.
- Route Ethernet cabling separately from high-voltage power conductors and high-current switching circuits.
- Use shielded industrial communication cable where the connected network installation requires electromagnetic interference control.
- Terminate cable shields according to the grounding scheme specified for the connected DH+ or RIO network.
- Keep DH+ and Remote I/O wiring physically separated from motor, contactor, and variable-frequency-drive wiring.
- Verify the selected DH+ or RIO baud rate against the corresponding network configuration before commissioning.
- Confirm Ethernet link and activity indication before testing controller-to-network data exchange.
- Secure removable Phoenix terminal blocks before applying power or starting network communication.
- Configure the gateway through its onboard web server and verify communication parameters before connecting production equipment.
- Do not apply power outside the specified 12 to 24 VDC input range.
- Verify all legacy network terminations and node addressing before migration testing.
