Rockwell Automation issues a Product Safety Advisory when it identifies a product(s) anomaly that may potentially cause harm to personnel, capital equipment loss or environmental damage. Immediate action is required as identified below.
RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 V24 through V30 Safety Configuration Signature When Using Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module Profile
Reference: 2017-06-002
Date: June 2017
This Product Safety Advisory informs you of a potential anomaly that exists when using the Generic EtherNet/IP™ Safety Module profile for RSLogix 5000® and Studio 5000® V24 through V30. This anomaly affects 1756 GuardLogix® projects created using a version of RSLogix 5000 prior to V24 that have been upgraded to a version of RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 V24 through V30. The Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module profile does not properly handle an online change made to the Safety Configuration Signature ID on the Safety page of the profile, due to an anomaly in the Add-on Profile (AOP) core software.

– Product Identification –
The affected product is the Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module Profile and included as part of the RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 V24 through V30 Architect and Logix Designer programming environments. For the anomaly to occur, all of the following conditions must be met:
1756 GuardLogix project created in RSLogix 5000 prior to V24,
Using the Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module profile, and
Upgraded the 1756 GuardLogix project to RSLogix 5000 or Studio 5000 V24 through V30
Followed by:
An online change made to the Safety Configuration Signature ID.
The following RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 products are affected by this anomaly:
9324-RLD700NXENE (English) 9324-RLD700NXINT (International)
9324-RLD600ENE (English) 9324-RLD300NXINT (International)
9324-RLD300ENE (English) 9324-RLD300INTL (International)
9324-RLD250ENE (English) 9324-RLD250INTL (International)
9324-RLD200ENE (English) 9324-RLD200INTL (International)
9324-RLD000ENE (English) 9324-RLD000INTL (International)
Important – GuardLogix and associated system hardware are not affected by this anomaly and may not be returned against this Product Safety Advisory.
– Description –
The Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module profiles provided as part of RSLogix 5000 and Studio 5000 V24 through V30 does not properly handle an online change made to the Safety Configuration Signature ID on the Safety Page of the profile due to an anomaly in the Add-on Profile (AOP) core software. The changed Safety Configuration Signature ID does not result in the Safety connection closing. This causes the configuration in the GuardLogix controller to be different than the configuration in the CIP Safety device, resulting in potential unexpected operation.
This anomaly is only evident after an online update is made to the Safety Configuration Signature ID of a safety device that uses the Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module profile. If your system has not been subject to this type of online update, you are not affected. However, to make sure the anomaly does not occur as the result of a future online update, Rockwell Automation strongly recommends implementation of the actions in the Correction section of this document.
– Temporary Workarounds –
Prior to implementing full corrective actions, customers who may be affected by this anomaly are advised to delete the CIP Safety devices that are using the Generic EtherNet/IP Safety Module profile in their GuardLogix project and recreate them. This will force future online changes to the Safety Configuration Signature ID to cause the Safety connection to close.
