Design an Enhanced Redundancy System

Redundant Chassis

You can use any ControlLogix or ControlLogix-XT chassis in a redundant chassis

pair as long as the two chassis used are the same size. For example, if the primary

chassis in your redundant chassis pair uses a 1756-A4 chassis, the secondary

chassis must use a 1756-A4 chassis.

You can use the 1756-A4LXT chassis with the enhanced redundancy system,

revision 19.052 or later. For a list of the ControlLogix chassis available for use in

an enhanced redundancy system, see

Table 4 on page 24

.

Redundant Chassis Configuration Requirements

These configuration parameters must match for the components in a redundant

chassis pair during normal system operation:

Module type

Chassis size

Slot placement

Firmware revision

Series level. See

page 32.

TIP

When using 1756-L7x controllers in your system, you must use revision 19.053

or later.
