Information About 1761-NET-ENI

The 1761-NET-ENI is part of the Allen-Bradley MicroLogix communication accessory family, developed to extend networking capabilities of controllers that do not have built-in Ethernet ports. It translates DF1 protocol to EtherNet/IP, enabling devices such as MicroLogix 1000, 1200, 1500, and SLC controllers to communicate on Ethernet networks. The module supports up to six simultaneous connections, allowing integration with HMIs, SCADA systems, and programming software like RSLogix 500. It includes an RJ45 Ethernet port, RS-232 port, and built-in web server for basic configuration. Compact and DIN rail–mounted, the 1761-NET-ENI provides a cost-effective solution for connecting legacy Allen-Bradley controllers to Ethernet infrastructures.

Key Features:

  • Design: EtherNet/IP interface module for legacy controllers.
  • Protocol Conversion: Translates DF1 protocol to EtherNet/IP.
  • Connectivity: RJ45 Ethernet and RS-232 ports for flexible integration.
  • Compatibility: Works with MicroLogix 1000, 1200, 1500, and SLC controllers.
  • Capacity: Supports up to six simultaneous Ethernet connections.
  • Configuration: Built-in web server for simple setup and diagnostics.
  • Installation: Compact DIN rail–mounted design.
  • Application Range: Suitable for machine-level networking, SCADA integration, and controller programming.

The 1761-NET-ENI delivers the networking flexibility and reliability required to integrate MicroLogix and legacy controllers into Ethernet/IP automation systems.

Frequently Asked Questions about 1761-NET-ENI
Question: What is the purpose of the 1761-NET-ENI module?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The 1761-NET-ENI is an Ethernet interface module designed to allow DF1-enabled devices such as MicroLogix, CompactLogix, and SLC 500 to communicate over an Ethernet/IP network. It acts as a bridge between serial devices and Ethernet systems, enabling remote communication, diagnostics, and programming. This helps modernize legacy systems without replacing the entire controller or adding new Ethernet modules.

Question: What are the physical dimensions and weight of the 1761-NET-ENI?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

The module has compact dimensions of approximately 4.64 x 2.05 x 2.55 inches (118 x 52 x 65 mm), which allows it to be easily installed in control panels. While the weight is not officially listed, it is lightweight and ideal for DIN rail or panel mounting. Its small size allows integration even in space-constrained enclosures.

Question: Can the 1761-NET-ENI be configured remotely?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

Yes, the module can be configured remotely via the Ethernet port using web-based diagnostic pages and tools. It includes a configuration security mask and diagnostic tools that display Ethernet status and module health. This simplifies troubleshooting and minimizes downtime.

Question: Does the 1761-NET-ENI support diagnostic features?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

Yes, it includes built-in diagnostics via web browser interface to monitor network activity, status of Ethernet connections, and device performance. LEDs on the front panel provide visual feedback for link, activity, and status. These features improve system visibility and reduce maintenance efforts.

Question: Is the 1761-NET-ENI still in production?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

No, the 1761-NET-ENI communication adaptor is no longer in production. Rockwell Automation officially discontinued the module on June 30, 2017. Since that date, it has not been available for purchase through standard Rockwell channels. Customers are encouraged to remove or redesign any systems dependent on this part. The lifecycle status is marked as Discontinued with no direct functional replacement available.

Question: What are the recommended replacements for 1761-NET-ENI?
Date Update:30/05/2025
Answer:

Rockwell Automation categorizes any replacement as an Engineering Replacement, meaning there is no drop-in substitute, but users are advised to consider newer communication platforms. Depending on your system, suitable alternatives may include CompactLogix controllers with embedded Ethernet/IP ports, or third-party DF1-to-Ethernet converters. If you require similar functionality, 1769-L24ER, 1769-L35ERM, or ControlLogix with 1756-EN2T modules may provide equivalent Ethernet integration while supporting modern architectures.
