Chapter 1 Getting Started
Features The features of the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter include:
• Drive parameters to set an IP address – or you can use a BOOTP server to
configure the IP address.
• Compatibility with various configuration tools to configure the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter and host drive. The tools include the PowerFlex 4/
40-class HIM (Human Interface Module 22-HIM-A3 or 22-HIM-C2S),
and drive-configuration software such as RSLogix 5000 (version 17 or
greater), Logix Designer (version 21 or greater), and Connected
Components Workbench (version 3 or greater).
• Status indicators on the drive’s LCD display that report the status of the
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter and network communications.
• Parameter-configured 16-bit Datalinks in the I/O to meet application
requirements (four Datalinks to write data from the network to the drive,
and four Datalinks to read data to the network from the drive).
• Explicit Messaging support.
• Master-Slave hierarchy that can be configured to transmit data to and from
a controller on the network.
• Multi-drive mode which allows up to five drives to share a single
EtherNet/IP node.
• User-defined fault actions to determine how the embedded EtherNet/IP
adapter and its host PowerFlex 525 drive respond to:
– I/O messaging communication disruptions (Comm Flt Action)
– Controllers in idle mode (Idle Flt Action)
• Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) is an RSLogix 5000 (version 20
or greater), and Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) feature that
supports the automatic download of configuration data upon the Logix

Safety Precautions Please read the following safety precautions carefully.
Quick Start This section is provided to help experienced users quickly start using the
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter. If you are unsure how to complete a step, refer to
the referenced chapter.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Only personnel
familiar with drive and power products and the associated machinery should
plan or implement the installation, start up, configuration, and subsequent
maintenance of the drive using this embedded adapter. Failure to comply may
result in injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The embedded adapter
contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts that can be damaged if
you do not follow ESD control procedures. Static control precautions are
required when handling the adapter. If you are unfamiliar with static control
procedures, see Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage (publication 8000-
4.5.2)
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the adapter is
transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may fault when you reset the
adapter. Determine how your drive will respond before resetting the adapter.

Notes:

Chapter 2
Since the EtherNet/IP adapter is embedded on the Main Control Board in the
PowerFlex 525 drive, the only required step is setting its IP address and
connecting it to the network.
Preparing for Set-Up Before setting up the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter:
• Make sure the Ethernet switch is the correct type. A “managed” switch that
supports IGMP snooping is usually recommended. An “unmanaged”
switch can be used instead if RSLogix 5000 (version 18 or greater) is used
and all devices on the network are configured for “unicast” I/O. For more
details, see the following documents:
– EtherNet/IP Media Planning and Installation Manual
(ODVA publication 148)
– EtherNet/IP Network Infrastructure Guidelines
(ODVA publication 35)
– Ethernet Design Considerations Reference Manual
(Rockwell Automation publication ENET-RM002)
• Understand IGMP Snooping/Ethernet Switches
The embedded EtherNet/IP adapter is a multicast device. In most
situations, an IGMP snooping (managed) switch is required. If more than
one or two embedded EtherNet/IP adapters are connected to the switch, a
managed switch is required—otherwise the drive may fault on a Net I/O
Timeout network loss. The embedded EtherNet/IP adapter,
RSLogix 5000 (version 18 or greater), and a ControlLogix or
CompactLogix controller will support unicast. Unicast setup is required
when adding the drive to the I/O. When all embedded EtherNet/IP
adapters are set up as unicast devices, then an IGMP snooping (managed)
switch is not needed.
Much of EtherNet/IP implicit (I/O) messaging uses IP multicast to
distribute I/O control data, which is consistent with the CIP producer/
consumer model. Historically, most switches have treated multicast
packets the same as broadcast packets. That is, all multicast packets are re-
transmitted to all ports.

Chapter 2 Setting Up the Adapter
IGMP snooping constrains the flooding of multicast traffic by dynamically
configuring switch ports so that multicast traffic is forwarded only to ports
associated with a particular IP multicast group.
Switches that support IGMP snooping (managed switches) “learn” which
ports have devices that are part of a particular multicast group and only
forward the multicast packets to the ports that are part of the multicast
group.
Be careful as to what level of support a switch has of IGMP snooping.
Some layer 2 switches that support IGMP snooping require a router
(which could be a layer 3 switch) to send out IGMP polls to learn what
devices are part of the multicast group. Some layer 2 switches can use
IGMP snooping without a router sending polls. If your control system is a
stand-alone network or is required to continue performing if the router is
out of service, make sure the switch you are using supports IGMP
snooping without a router being present.
• See Appendix A for the number of CIP connections supported by the
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter.
• Verify that you have all required equipment. See Required Equipment on
page 12.
Setting the IP Address There are two methods for configuring the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter’s IP
address:
• BOOTP Server – Use BOOTP if you prefer to control the IP addresses of
devices using a BOOTP server. The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway
addresses will then be provided by the BOOTP server. This is enabled by
default.
• Parameters – Use parameters when you want more flexibility in setting up
the IP address, or need to communicate outside the control network using
a gateway. The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses will then
come from the parameters you set.
Connecting the Adapter to
the Network
1. Remove power from the drive.
2. Remove the drive control module cover.
IMPORTANT Regardless of the method used to set the adapter’s IP address, each node on
the networkmust have aunique IP address. To change an IP address, you must
set the new value and then remove and reapply power to (or reset) the drive.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive may contain
highvoltagesthatcancauseinjuryordeath.Removepowerfromthedrive,and
then verify power has been discharged before connecting the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter to the network.

Setting Up the Adapter Chapter 2
3. Use static control precautions.
4. Connect one end of an Ethernet cable to the EtherNet/IP network.
5. Route the other end of the Ethernet cable through the bottom of the
PowerFlex 525 drive, and insert the cable’s plug into the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter’s mating socket (item 2 in Components of the
Embedded EtherNet/IP Adapter on page 11).
Applying Power
Install the control module cover, and apply power to the drive. The embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter receives its power from the drive. When you apply power to
the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter for the first time, the “ENET” status
indicator on the drive LCD display should remain steady after an initialization. If
it does not light up or is flashing, there is a problem. See Chapter 8,
Troubleshooting.
Startup Status Indication
After power has been applied, status indicators for the PowerFlex 525 drive and
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter can be viewed on the drive LCD display. See
Drive and Adapter Status Indicators on page 20 for their location and possible
status indications.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage, injury, or death exists. Unpredictable
operation may occur if you fail to verify that parameter settings are compatible
with your application. Verify that settings are compatible with your application
before applying power to the drive.

Drive and Adapter Status Indicators
For more details on status indicator operation see Understanding the Status
Indicators on page 111.
Configuring/Verifying Key Drive Parameters
The PowerFlex 525 drive can be separately configured for the control and
Reference functions in various combinations. For example, you could set the
drive to have its control come from a peripheral or terminal block with the
Reference coming from the network. Or you could set the drive to have its
control come from the network with the Reference coming from another
peripheral or terminal block. Or you could set the drive to have both its control
and Reference come from the network.
Configuring the drive parameters can be done using the drive’s keypad, a HIM,
RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer, or Connected Components Workbench. In the
following example, the drive will receive the Logic Command and Reference
from the network.
1. Set the value of drive parameter P046 [Start Source 1]
to 5 “EtherNet/IP”.
2. Set the value of drive parameter P047 [Speed Reference1]
to 15 “EtherNet/IP”.
TIP The PowerFlex 525 drive supports up to three control functions and
three Reference functions.

For more information on how to set different combinations of the control and
Reference functions, see the PowerFlex 525 drive user manual,
publication 520-UM001.
Commissioning the Adapter To commission the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter, you must set a unique IP
address. See the Glossary for details about IP addresses. Use either a BOOTP
server or parameters to set the IP address after connecting the adapter to the
network and applying power to the drive.
By default, the adapter is configured to accept an IP address from a BOOTP
server. For details, see Using BOOTP on page 26. To set the IP address using
parameters, see Setting the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address on
page 29.
IMPORTANT New settings for some parameters (for example, parameters C129 [EN IP
Addr Cfg 1] through C132 [EN IP Addr Cfg 4]) are recognized only when
power is applied to the adapter. After you change parameter settings, cycle
drive power.

Configuring the Adapter Using DHCP/BOOTP Utility
1. Verify and note the adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC), which
will be used in Step 6. There are two ways to do this:
• Use the PowerFlex 525 drive’s keypad or a HIM to access the diagnostic
parameters of the drive. Scroll to parameters F687 [HW Addr 1]
through F692 [HW Addr 6] to view the adapter’s hardware Ethernet
Address (MAC). Finally, convert these decimal values to a hex value.
• Remove the PowerFlex 525 control module front cover and locate the
adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC) label.
2. On a computer connected to the EtherNet/IP network, start the
BOOTP/DHCP software. The BOOTP/DHCP Server window
appears.
3. To properly configure devices on your EtherNet/IP network, you must
configure settings in the BOOTP/DHCP software to match the network.
Select Tools > Network Settings to display the Network Settings window.

drive, the adapter will use the configuration you assigned it and not issue
new BOOTP/DHCP requests.
10. To save the Relation List, select File > Save.
Setting the IP Address,
Subnet Mask, and Gateway
Address
By default, the adapter is configured to accept an IP address, subnet mask, and
gateway address from a BOOTP server. If you want to set these attributes using
parameters instead, you must first disable BOOTP and then set these network
address parameters in the drive.
Disabling the BOOTP Feature
1. Set the value of parameter C128 [EN Addr Sel] to 1“Parameters”.
2. Reset the adapter by power cycling the drive.
After disabling the BOOTP feature, you can then configure the IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway address using parameters.
Setting an IP Address Using Parameters
1. Verify that parameter C128 [EN Addr Sel] is set to 1“Parameters”. This
parameter must be set to “Parameters” to configure the IP address using
parameters.
2. Set the value of parameters C129 [EN IP Addr Cfg 1] through C132
[EN IP Addr Cfg 4] to a unique IP address.
TIP To enable BOOTP for an embedded adapter that has had BOOTP
disabled,firstselecttheadapterintheRelationList.ThenclickEnable
BOOTP and power cycle the drive.

Setting a Subnet Mask Using Parameters
1. Verify that parameter C128 [EN EN Addr Sel] is set to 1“Parameters”.
This parameter must be set to “Parameters” to configure the subnet mask
using parameters.
2. Set the value of parameters C133 [EN Subnet Cfg 1] through C136 [EN
Subnet Cfg 4] to the desired value for the subnet mask.
Setting a Gateway Address Using Parameters
1. Verify that parameter C128 [EN EN Addr Sel] is set to 1“Parameters”.
This parameter must be set to “Parameters” to configure the gateway
address using parameters.
2. Set the value of parameters C137 [EN Gateway Cfg 1] through C140
[EN Gateway Cfg 4] to the desired value for the gateway address.
Setting the Data Rate By default, the adapter automatically detects the data (baud) rate and duplex
setting used on the network. If you need to set a specific data rate and duplex
setting, the value of parameter C141 [EN Rate Cfg] determines the Ethernet
data rate and duplex setting that the adapter will use to communicate. For
definitions of data rate and duplex, see the Glossary.
1. Set the value of parameter C141 [EN Rate Cfg] to the data rate at which
your network is operating.

Using Master-Slave Hierarchy A hierarchy determines the type of device with which the adapter exchanges data.
In a Master-Slave hierarchy, the adapter exchanges data with a master, such as a
scanner or bridge.
For a Master-Slave hierarchy, the devices exchanging data must be on the same IP
subnet. See “IP Addresses” in the Glossary for information about IP subnets.
Configuring a Master-Slave Hierarchy
The controller I/O image can have anywhere from zero to eight (four In and four
Out) additional 16-bit parameters called Datalinks. They are configured using
parameters C153 [EN Data In 1] through C156 [EN Data In 4], and C157
[EN Data Out 1] through C160 [EN Data Out 4]. The number of Datalinks
actively used is controlled by the connection size in the controller and the in/out
parameters. See the respective controller example sections in Chapter 4 for more
information on setting the connection size.
When using a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller and the Generic
Profile, or a MicroLogix 1100/1400 controller, configure the Datalink
parameters now as described in this section.
TIP Auto detection of data rate and duplex works properly only if the
device (usually a switch) on the other end of the cable is also set to
automatically detect the data rate/duplex. If one device has the data
rate/duplex hard-coded, the other device must be hard-coded to the
same settings.
TIP When using a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller and an RSLogix 5000
(version 17 or greater) or Logix Designer(version 21 or greater) drive Add-On
Profile, there is no need to configure Datalink parameters at this time. They
will be assigned when configuring the drive Add-On Profile (see Adding the
Drive to the I/O Configuration on page 40).

EnablingDatalinksToWriteData
Parameters C153 [EN Data In 1] through C156 [EN Data In 4] control which
parameters in the drive, adapter, or any other connected peripheral receive values
from the network. To configure these parameters, set them to the drive parameter
number you want to write them to.
The following steps are required to enable Datalinks to write data:
1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous controller-to-
drive Datalinks needed to write data to the drive and that are to be
included in the network I/O connection.
After the above steps are complete, the adapter is ready to receive input data and
transfer status data to the master (controller). Next, configure the controller to
recognize and transmit I/O to the adapter. See Chapter 4, Configuring the I/O.
EnablingDatalinksToReadData
Parameters C157 [EN Data Out 1] through C160 [EN Data Out 4] configure
which parameters in the drive, adapter, or any other connected peripheral send
values to the network. To configure these parameters, set them to the parameter
number you wish to read over the network.
The following steps are required to enable Datalinks to read data:
1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous drive-to-
controller Datalinks needed to read data from the drive and that are to be
included in the network I/O connection.
After the above steps are complete, the adapter is ready to send output data to the
master (controller). Next, configure the controller to recognize and transmit I/O
to the adapter. See Chapter 4, Configuring the I/O.
IMPORTANT Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order, starting
withthefirstparameter.Forexample,useparametersC153,C154,andC155to
configurethreeDatalinkstowritedata.Otherwise,thenetworkI/Oconnection
will be larger than necessary, which needlessly increases controller response
time and memory usage.
IMPORTANT Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order, starting
withthefirstparameter.Forexample,useparametersC157,C158,andC159to
configure three Datalinks to read data. Otherwise, the network I/O connection
will be larger than necessary, which needlessly increases controller response
time and memory usage.

Setting a Fault Action By default, when communications are disrupted (the network cable is
disconnected) and/or the controller is idle (in program mode or faulted), the
drive responds by faulting if it is using I/O from the network. You can configure a
different response to:
• Disrupted I/O communication by using parameter
C143 [EN Comm Flt Actn].
• An idle controller by using parameter C144 [EN Idle Flt Actn].
Changing the Fault Action
Set the values of parameters C143 [EN Comm Flt Actn] and C144 [EN Idle Flt
Actn] to the desired responses:
Changes to these parameters take effect immediately. A reset is not required. If
communication is disrupted and then re-established, the drive will automatically
receive commands over the network again.
Setting the Fault Configuration Parameters
When setting parameter C143 [EN Comm Flt Actn] and C144 [EN Idle Flt
Actn] to 4 “Send Flt Cfg,” the values in the following parameters are sent to the
drive after a communications fault and/or idle fault for drive control fault occurs.
You must set these parameters to values required by your application. Changes to
these parameters take effect immediately. A reset is not required.
ATTENTION:Riskofinjuryorequipmentdamageexists.DriveparametersC143
[EN Comm Flt Actn] and C144 [EN Idle Flt Actn] respectively let you determine
the action of the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter and drive if communications
are disrupted or the controller is idle. By default, these parameters fault the
drive. You may configure these parameters so that the drive continues to run,
however, precautions should be taken to ensure that the settings of these
parameters do not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When
commissioning the drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various
situations (a disconnected network cable or controller in idle state).
Value Action Description
0 Fault The drive is faulted and stopped (Default).
1 Stop The drive is stopped as per P045 [Stop Mode] setting.
2 Zero Data The Reference and Datalink values transmitted to the drive will be set to “0”.
3 Hold Last The Reference and Datalink values transmitted to the drivewill be held at their last value.
4 Send Flt Cfg The Logic, Reference,and Datalink values will be transmitted to the drive as configured in
C145 [EN Flt Cfg Logic], C146 [EN Flt Cfg Ref], and C147 [EN Flt Cfg DL 1] through C150 [EN Flt
Cfg DL 4].
Parameter Description
C145 [EN FltCfg Logic] A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for LogicCommand.
C146 [EN Flt Cfg Ref] A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for Reference.
C147[ENFltCfgDL1]through
C150 [EN Flt Cfg DL 4]
A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for a Datalink.

Resetting the Adapter Changes to some parameters require that you reset the adapter before the new
settings take effect. You can reset the adapter by cycling power to the drive.
Viewing the Adapter Status
Using Parameters
The following diagnostic parameters provide information about the status of the
adapter. You can view these parameters at any time.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the adapter is
transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may fault when you reset the
adapter. Determine how your drive will respond before resetting the adapter.

Configuring the I/O
This chapter provides instructions on how to configure a CompactLogix
controller to communicate with the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter in the
PowerFlex 525 drive.
Using RSLinx Classic RSLinx Classic, in all its variations (Lite, Gateway, OEM, etc.), is used to provide
a communication link between the computer, network, and controller. RSLinx
Classic requires its network-specific driver to be configured before
communications are established with network devices. To configure the RSLinx

6. Verify that your computer recognizes the drive. Select Communications >
RSWho and, in the menu tree, click the “+” symbol next to the Ethernet
driver.
7. Note that two other RSLinx drivers (Ethernet devices or Remote Devices
through Linx Gateway) may be used. Use one of these drivers if the
“EtherNet/IP Driver” cannot see your drive.
CompactLogix Example After the adapter is configured, the drive and adapter will be a single node on the
network. This section provides the steps needed to configure a simple EtherNet/
IP network. In our example, we will configure a 1769-L36ERM CompactLogix
controller with embedded EtherNet/IP capability to communicate with a drive
using Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and eight Datalinks (four to
read and four to write) over the network.
Adding the Controller to the I/O Configuration
To establish communications between the controller and drive over the network,
you must first add the CompactLogix controller and its embedded EtherNet/IP
bridge to the I/O configuration.

Configuring the I/O Chapter 4
1. Start RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer. The application window appears.
Select File > New to display the New Controller window.
Select the appropriate choices for the fields in the window to match your
application. Then click OK. The application window reappears with the
treeview in the left pane.
Note: If you are using a controller without an embedded EtherNet/IP
bridge, you will also need to add the bridge to the I/O configuration. See
the user manual for your controller for details.
2. Configure the IP address/Network Settings on your controller or bridge.
In this example, the Network Settings are set for a private network.
3. Click OK. The controller is now configured for the EtherNet/IP network.
It appears in the I/O Configuration folder. In our example, a
1769-L36ERM controller appears under the I/O Configuration folder
with its assigned name.

There are two ways to add the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter into the I/O
configuration:
• Drive Add-On Profiles (RSLogix 5000 version 17 or greater, Logix
Designer version 21 or greater)
• Generic Profile (RSLogix 5000 or Logix Designer, all versions)
These are described in the following separate sections. If your version of
RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer supports drive Add-On Profiles, we highly
recommend using this method.
UsingDriveAdd-OnProfileswithRSLogix5000(version17orgreater)
or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater)
When compared to using the Generic Profile (all versions), the drive Add-On
Profiles provide these advantages:
• Profiles for specific drives that provide descriptive controller tags for basic
control I/O words (Logic Command/Status and Reference/Feedback)
and Datalinks. Additionally, Datalinks automatically take the name of the
drive parameter to which they are assigned. These profiles virtually
eliminate I/O mismatch errors and substantially reduce drive
configuration time.
• New Drive tab eliminates the need for a separate drive software
configuration tool.
• Drive configuration settings are saved as part of the RSLogix 5000/
Logix Designer project file (.ACD) and also downloaded to the controller.
• Unicast connection (RSLogix 5000 version 18 or greater, or Logix
Designer version 21 or greater)
• Drive Add-On Profiles enable I/O to be added online while the controller
is in the Run mode.
• Drive Add-On Profiles can be updated anytime. When a new drive is used
or to benefit from new updates for Add-On Profiles, you will need the
newest Add-On Profile update. Go to www.ab.com/support/abdrives/
webupdate to download the latest RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer drive
Add-On Profile.
AddingtheDrivetotheI/OConfiguration
To transmit data between the controller and the drive, you must add the drive as a
child device to the parent controller. In this example, RSLogix 5000 version 20 is
used with drive Add-On Profile version 1.01.

1. In the treeview, right-click on the icon and select New
Module… to display the Select Module window. Expand the Drives group
to display all of the available drives with their communication adapters.
2. In the Select Module Type window, select the drive and its connected
adapter from the list. For this example, we selected “PowerFlex 525-
EENET.” Then click Create. The drive’s New Module window appears.
TIP If the PowerFlex drive is not shown, go to www.ab.com/support/
abdrives/webupdate and download the latest drive Add-On Profile.

3. On the General tab, edit the following data about the drive:

Module Definition window for the Input Data and Output Data is the
same:
• Click the button to assign a parameter to each input and output
Datalink you require.
6. Click OK on the Module Definition window to save the drive
configuration and close the window. The drive’s New Module window
reappears.
7. On the New Module window, click the Connection tab.
8. In the “Requested Packet Interval (RPI)” box, set the value to 5.0
milliseconds or greater. This value determines the maximum interval that a
controller should use to move data to and from the adapter. To conserve
bandwidth, use higher values for communicating with low priority devices.
The “Inhibit Module” box, when checked, inhibits the module from
communicating with the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer project. When
the “Major Fault on …” box is checked, a major controller fault will occur
when the module’s connection fails while the controller is in the Run
Mode. For this example, leave the “Inhibit Module” and “Major Fault On
…” boxes unchecked.
IMPORTANT Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order,
starting with the first parameter. (For example, use parameters C157,
C158, and C159 to configure three Datalinks to write data and/or
parameters C153, C154, C155, and C156 to configure four Datalinks to
read data.) Otherwise, the network I/O connection will be larger than
necessary, which needlessly increases controller response time and
memory usage.

9. Click OK on the New Module window.
The new node (“PowerFlex 525-EENET PowerFlex_52X_Drive” in this
example) now appears under the icon in the I/O Configuration
folder. If you double-click on the Input Controller Tag (Controller Input
Tags on page 45) and Output Controller Tag (Controller Output Tags on
page 45), you will see that module-defined data types and tags have been
automatically created. Note that all tag names are defined and Datalinks
include the assigned drive parameter name. After you save and download
the configuration, these tags allow you to access the Input and Output data
of the drive using the controller’s ladder logic.

SavingtheI/OConfigurationtotheController
After adding the controller and drive to the I/O configuration, you must
download the configuration to the controller. You should also save the
configuration to a file on your computer.

1. In the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer window, select Communications >
Download. The Download dialog box appears.
2. Click Download to download the configuration to the controller. When
the download is successfully completed, RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer
goes into Online Mode and the I/O Not Responding box in the upper-left
of the window should be flashing green. Also, a yellow warning symbol
should be displayed on the I/O Configuration folder in the treeview and
on the drive profile.
3. If the controller was in Run Mode before clicking Download,
RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer prompts you to change the controller
mode back to Remote Run. In this case, choose the appropriate mode for
your application. If the controller was in Program Mode before clicking
Download, this prompt will not appear.
4. Select File > Save. If this is the first time you saved the project, the Save As
dialog box appears. Navigate to a folder, type a file name, and click Save to
save the configuration to a file on your computer.
5. To ensure that the present project configuration values are saved,
RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer prompts you to upload them. Click Yes to
upload and save them.
CorrelatingtheDrivewiththeController
You must now correlate the drive settings to the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer
project I/O settings so that they match. This requires loading the project I/O
settings into the drive.
TIP IfamessageboxreportsthatRSLogix5000/LogixDesignerisunableto
go online, select Communications > Who Active to find your
controller in the Who Active screen. After finding and selecting the
controller, click Set Project Path to establish the path. If your
controller does not appear, you need to add or configure the EtherNet/
IP driver in RSLinx. See the RSLinx online help.

1. In the treeview under I/O Configuration, right-click on the drive profile
(for this example “PowerFlex 525-EENET PowerFlex_52X_Drive”) and
select Properties.
2. Select the Drive tab to begin the correlation process.
After the drive configuration data has been verified, the Drive tab will
display a request to synchronize the configuration with the drive. Click
Accept.
If the Differences Found Screen on page 48 appears—which is typical,
click Download. This will download the project settings from the
controller to the drive. If Upload is clicked, the drive settings are uploaded
to the controller.
TIP On subsequent connections to the drive (after the initial download),
select Upload.

3. The Drive tab displays the current status of the drive.
If the download is successful, the Drive tab will show a green
indicator in the upper right corner of the window. This tab is extremely
useful for configuring drive parameters, accessing start-up wizards and
troubleshooting.
4. Click OK to close the Module Properties window for the drive.
Using Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) with RSLogix 5000
(version 20) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater)
Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) is an RSLogix 5000 (version 20) and
Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) feature that supports the automatic
download of configuration data upon the Logix controller establishing an
EtherNet/IP network connection to a PowerFlex 525 drive and its associated
peripherals.

An RSLogix 5000 (version 20) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) project
(.ACD file) contains the configuration settings for any PowerFlex drives in the
project. When the project is downloaded to the Logix controller, these settings
are also transferred and reside in the controller’s memory. Prior to ADC in
RSLogix 5000 (version 20) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater),
downloading PowerFlex 525 configuration data was a manual process where the
user would open the Drive tab in the respective drive Add-On Profile (AOP) in
the application and click on the Download icon. ADC now automates the
process and saves the user time. It is particularly beneficial in a drive replacement
situation when a production line is down.
ADC can also work in tandem with Firmware Supervisor. If Firmware Supervisor
is set up and enabled for a drive (“Exact Match” keying must be used), the drive/
peripheral will be automatically flashed (if necessary) prior to any ADC
operation.
The drive AOP requires user action to enable ADC. This helps ensure that the
user understands ADC operation prior to turning it on. The drive AOPs also
have an ADC icon on the Drive tab to show general ADC enable/disable status
for the drive:
Clicking on the ADC icon will launch the ADC configuration window. This
provides a single, convenient location to enable/disable ADC on the drive.
IMPORTANT • ADC is not available for DSI peripherals.
• ADC is not available in Multi-drive mode.
• ADC is only available when the drive is connected using the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter or future EtherNet/IP DLR adapter to a compatible
controller.
TIP Use with Stratix switches such as the Stratix 5700, Stratix 6000, and Stratix
8000 to provide dynamic IP address assignment by port. This eliminates the
need for theusertomanually enter the IPaddress,Subnetmask,andGateway
address prior to connecting a replacement drive to the Ethernet network.
IMPORTANT Logix“owns”theconfigurationofthedrive.ADCwillbetriggeredany
time the Logix controller detects a configuration signature mismatch
when establishing an EtherNet/IP network I/O connection. The use of
otherconfiguration tools, such asaHIM or ConnectedComponentsWorkbench
software should be minimized and restricted to monitor-only operation. Any
configurationchangesmadebythesetoolswillcauseaconfigurationsignature
mismatch the next time the Logix controller connects to the device and ADC
will write over any changes made by the other tool(s). Any drive configuration
changes should be made with the drive Add-On Profile.
Icon Meaning
No ports on the drive have ADC enabled.
At least one port on the drive has ADC enabled.
ADC is not supported.

ConfiguringaPowerFlex525DriveforADC
ADC is configured within the AOP of the PowerFlex 525 drive. Start by creating
or opening a PowerFlex 525 drive in the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer I/O
Configuration folder.
1. In the Module Properties window, select the General tab and click
Change… to open the Module Definition window.
2. Select the appropriate Electronic Keying for your application.

There are three Electronic Keying choices available in the Module
Definition window in the drive AOP, but only two are recommended with
ADC:
Electronic Keying for HIMs and serial converters are disabled by default.
These are typically temporary devices or used for monitoring purposes
only and therefore “do not matter” if they are present or not. You still have
the option to select these to other Keying selections if desired.
Click OK when finished.
3. Select the Drive tab and click the ADC icon to open the ADC
Settings.
The ADC Settings window provides a single location for ADC
configuration of the drive’s ports. Global checkboxes at the top of each
column checks or unchecks the entire column. Ports can also be turned
on/off individually. See the checkbox selection information in Step 3 for
additional details.
Click OK when finished.
4. Perform the above steps for each additional PowerFlex 525 drive.
5. Save your project and download the project to the Logix controller.
Keying Selection Recommendation
Exact Match This selection should only be used if:
• Your system design specification requires that a replacement drive/peripheral be identical –
down to the Minor revision of firmware (x.xxx).
• You will be implementing Firmware Supervisor flash support in addition to ADC. ControlFlash
firmwarekitsfortherevisionoffirmwareusedforeachdrive/peripheralmustbeinstalledonthe
PC running RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer. Flash files can be downloaded from:
http://www.ab.com/support/abdrives/webupdate
Compatible Module This selection is the typical ADC selection when Firmware Supervisor is not used. A replacement
drive(includingperipherals)willneed to have the sameorhigher firmware revisionas the original.
Since drives with newer firmware are required to be compatible with older firmware, this allows
ADC to work without compatibility concerns. Note that if a Series change accompanies a Major
firmware change, the replacement drive may or may not be “compatible” with respect to keying.
Disabled When using ADC, this selection should generally not be used. This selection allows a replacement
drive to have anydifferent Major (x.xxx)and/or Minor (x.xxx) firmware revision.It is upto the user
to provide a replacement that has a firmware revision later than or equal to the original drive. If a
replacement drive with older firmware is used, the ADC download may fail.
TIP Electronic Keying settings for peripherals can be modified in the Drive
tab of the AOP. Select the peripheral tab for the device you wish to
modify, then click Properties.

ADCandLogixMemory
Starting in RSLogix 5000 version 16, drive configuration settings have been
stored in the project's ACD file which is downloaded and stored in the controller.
The majority of Logix controllers have megabytes of memory available, so this
typically should not be an issue. You can monitor Logix memory usage in the
application in the Controller Properties > Memory tab.
StoringtheDrive’sandPeripheral’sFirmwareintheLogixController(FirmwareSupervisor)
The Logix Firmware Supervisor function has been extended to provide firmware
updates for the peripherals connected to the drive. To configure the controller to
check and refresh the correct firmware for the drive and peripherals, perform the
following steps:
1. Verify that “Exact Match” keying is selected in the drive’s and peripherals’
properties screens (the drive’s is in the General tab; the peripherals’ are
under the Drive tab, after right-clicking on each peripheral and choosing
Properties).
2. Verify that ControlFlash firmware kits for each revision of firmware for
each device that should be stored in the controller have been installed on
the PC running RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer.
3. Verify that a CompactFlash or other storage card has been installed in the
controller.
4. Use RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer to go online with the controller in
Program mode. Download your program if you have not done so already.
5. In the treeview, right-click on the controller folder at the top of the
Controller Organizer and choose Properties. On the Controller
Properties window, select the Nonvolatile Memory tab.

6. Click Load/Store…. The Nonvolatile Memory Load/Store window
appears.
In the Controller section for the Automatic Firmware Update field, select
“Enable and Store Files to Image,” and click the <-- Store button. You may
see two different continue confirmation dialog boxes relating to
communication disruptions and erasure of the current contents of the
storage card. If okay, click Yes on each dialog box.
7. The application will go to the Offline state, and the following dialog box
will appear.
Wait a short period of time for the store operation to complete, and then
attempt to go online with the controller again.
MonitoringtheADCProgress
The time it takes for the ADC process to complete will vary from seconds to
several minutes depending on several factors:
• The number of peripherals enabled for ADC.
• If a configuration signature for the drive/peripheral indicates a
configuration download needs to be performed for the given port.
• Whether Firmware Supervisor is enabled and needs to flash the drive and/
or any peripherals.
IMPORTANT ADC can automatically reset the drive as part of the configuration process. This
is done because some parameters require a reset before they take effect. If a
drive is being replaced with an out-of-the-box drive, you will typically see one
or more resets during the ADC process.

An operational drive in a running Logix system will have the following status
indicator states:
See Understanding the Status Indicators on page 111 for more information.
Additional information may also be displayed on the HIM if it is present (flash
status, etc.).
If ADC is unsuccessful, RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer can be used to get
additional information. When online, the drive at issue should have a yellow
triangle next to it in the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer project's I/O
Configuration folder. Double-click on the drive to open the drive AOP. The
Connection tab will show a Module Fault code and the Drive tab can help you
identify issues.
Examples of potential issues/solutions are:

Using the RSLogix 5000 (all versions) or Logix Designer (version 21 or
greater) Generic Profile
The basic RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer Generic Profile is only recommended
when:
• A specific drive profile in other versions of RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer
is unavailable.
• Users are already familiar with a Generic Profile and do not want to
convert an existing project to a drive Add-On Profile (RSLogix 5000
version 17 or greater and Logix Designer version 21 or greater).
• A project must maintain specific revision level control.
• The controller cannot be taken offline. RSLogix 5000 (all versions) and
Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) enables the drive Generic Profile to
be added while the controller is online and in the Run mode.
To transmit data between the bridge and the drive, you must add the drive as a

3. Edit the following information about the drive:
4. Under Connection Parameters, edit the following:
Enter the number of 16-bit words that are required for your I/O in the
Input Size and Output Size boxes. Since the adapter always uses the 16-bit
Logic Status, 16-bit Feedback, and two 16-bit words dedicated for
memory allocation of the Generic Ethernet module profile, at least four
16-bit words must be set for the Input Size. The adapter also uses the 16-
bit Logic Command and 16-bit Reference, requiring at least two 16-bit
words for the Output Size. If any or all of the drive’s eight 16-bit Datalinks
are used (see Configuring a Master-Slave Hierarchy on page 31), the Input
and Output Size settings must be increased accordingly.

Limitations in Using
MicroLogix 1100/1400
Controlling I/O with explicit messages is relatively complex compared to normal
implicit I/O control.
ControlLogix and CompactLogix controllers with EtherNet/IP provide the
easiest and most integrated form of implicit I/O control for a PowerFlex drive.
RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer programming software for ControlLogix and
CompactLogix controllers contains integrated profiles for PowerFlex drives that,
with a few clicks of the mouse, automatically create all controller tags and an
implicit connection at the specified Requested Packet Interval to control the
drive. This connection is monitored at both ends to ensure that the controller
and drive are communicating. A watchdog will cause a drive fault if the drive does
not respond within approximately 100 milliseconds. Therefore, using a
ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller is by far the much preferred method
of controlling drives on EtherNet/IP.
If you are not using either of these type of controllers, then PowerFlex drives on
EtherNet/IP can be controlled with explicit messages using
MicroLogix 1100/1400 controllers with the following limitations:
• An explicit message is a much slower form of control and is non-
deterministic. This means that you cannot guarantee how long the drive
will take to start up or stop when the command is given. Therefore, all
equipment used in this manner should be subject to a risk assessment,
taking into account the mechanical and electrical implementation.
• A timeout value (in seconds) in the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter will
issue a drive fault if a message is not received from the controller within the
specified time. However, the controller has no way of detecting a loss of
communications to the drive until the next cycle of explicit messages. This
is another factor in the risk assessment.
• Any additional drives to be controlled will require additional explicit
messages for their control, and they need to be carefully sequenced. Most
controllers have small communication queues (see its User Manual), which
need to be carefully managed if messages are not to be lost.
• Each controller has a limited number of communication connections (see
its User Manual for maximum connections), which will limit the number
of drives that can be connected.
In summary, unlike a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller, programming a
MicroLogix 1100/1400 controller using RSLogix 500 software with explicit
messages is more difficult, and produces a more complex program.

Chapter 5
Using the I/O
This chapter provides information and examples that explain how to control,
configure, and monitor a PowerFlex 525 drive using the configured I/O.
About I/O Messaging On CIP-based networks, including EtherNet/IP, I/O connections are used to
transfer the data which controls the PowerFlex drive and sets its Reference. I/O
can also be used to transfer data to and from Datalinks in PowerFlex 525 drives.
The adapter includes the Logic Command, Logic Status, Reference, Feedback,
and memory allocation for the Generic Ethernet module profile (all as 16-bit
words) in the controller’s I/O image. This basic I/O must always be configured in
the Ethernet bridge using RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer. Additional I/O, if
needed, can be set using up to four Datalinks to write data and/or up to four
Datalinks to read data. When using any combination of these Datalinks, add one
16-bit word for each Datalink to the basic I/O Input Size and/or Output Size.
Chapter 3, Configuring the Adapter, and Chapter 4, Configuring the I/O,
discuss how to configure the adapter and controller on the network for the
required I/O. The Glossary defines the different options. This chapter discusses
how to use I/O after you have configured the drive and controller.
Understanding the I/O Image The terms input and output are defined from the controller’s point of view.
Therefore, output I/O is data that is produced by the controller and consumed by
the adapter. Input I/O is data that is produced by the adapter and consumed as
input by the controller. The I/O image will vary based on:

Chapter 5 Using the I/O
• How many of the drive’s 16-bit Datalinks ([EN Data In 1...4] and [EN
Data Out 1...4]) are used.
• ControlLogix/CompactLogix Controllers only—The drive Add-On
Profile (AOP) used in RSLogix 5000 (version 17 or greater) or Logix
Designer (version 21 or greater), or the Generic Profile (all versions).
• If Multi-drive mode is enabled, and the number of daisy-chained drives
that are present.
I/O Controller Image
Since the drive Add-On Profile in RSLogix 5000 (version 17 or greater) and
Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) provides descriptive controller tags, the I/
O image (tag size and location) is automatically configured based on the drive
being used. When using the Generic Profile in RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer,
however, controller tags are not descriptive.
I/O Image for PowerFlex 525 Drives on page 62 shows the I/O image when using
all of the 16-bit Datalinks.
I/O Image for PowerFlex 525 Drives
(16-bit Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and Datalinks)
Using Logic Command/Status The Logic Command is a 16-bit word of control data produced by the controller
and consumed by the adapter. The Logic Status is a 16-bit word of status data
produced by the adapter and consumed by the controller.
When using a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller, the Logic Command
word is always INT 0 in the output image and the Logic Status word is always:
• INT 0 in the input image when using the drive Add-On Profile.
• INT 2 when using the Generic Profile.

Using the I/O Chapter 5
Using Reference/Feedback The Reference is a 16-bit word that is produced by the controller and consumed
by the adapter. The Feedback is a 16-bit word produced by the adapter and
consumed by the controller.
When using a ControlLogix or CompactLogix controller, the Reference is always
INT 1 in the output image (see I/O Image for PowerFlex 525 Drives on page 62)
and the 16-bit Feedback is always:
• INT 1 in the input image when using the drive Add-On Profile.
• INT 3 when using the Generic Profile.
The Reference and Feedback are 16-bit values which represent drive speed in
0.01 Hz.
Using Datalinks A Datalink is a mechanism used by PowerFlex drives to transfer data to and from
the controller. Datalinks allow a drive parameter value to be read or written to
without using an Explicit Message. When enabled, each Datalink occupies one
16-bit word in a ControlLogix, CompactLogix, or MicroLogix controller.
The following rules apply when using PowerFlex 525 drive Datalinks:
• Datalinks cannot be used with Multi-drive mode.
• The target of a Datalink can be any valid parameter, including those of a
peripheral. For example, drive parameter P041 [Accel Time 1] can be the
target of the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter and any or all Option Cards
installed in the drive.
• The data passed through the drive’s Datalink mechanism is determined by
the settings of parameters C157...C160 [EN Data Out 1...4] and
parameters C153...C156 [EN Data In 1...4].
• When an I/O connection that includes Datalinks is active, those Datalinks
being used are locked and cannot be changed until that I/O connection
becomes idle or inactive.
• When you use a Datalink to change a value, the value is NOT written to
the Non-Volatile Storage (NVS). The value is stored in volatile memory
and lost when the drive loses power. Thus, use Datalinks when you need to
change a value of a parameter frequently.
Datalinks for PowerFlex 525 drive peripherals (embedded EtherNet/IP adapter
and Option Modules such as a communication module) are locked when the
peripheral has an I/O connection with a controller. When a controller has an I/O
connection to the drive, the drive does not allow a reset to defaults, configuration

download or anything else that could change the makeup of the I/O connection
in a running system. The I/O connection with the controller must first be
disabled to allow changes to the respective Datalinks.
Depending on the controller being used, the I/O connection can be disabled by:
• Inhibiting the module in RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer
• Putting the controller in Program mode
• Placing the scanner in idle mode
• Disconnecting the drive from the network
Example Ladder Logic
Program Information
The example ladder logic programs in the sections of this chapter are intended for
PowerFlex 525 drives.
Functions of the Example Programs
The example programs enable you to:
• Receive Logic Status information from the drive.
• Send a Logic Command to control the drive (for example, start, stop).
• Send a Reference to the drive and receive Feedback from the drive.
• Send/receive Datalink data to/from the drive.
Logic Command/Status Words
These examples use the Logic Command word and Logic Status word for
PowerFlex 525 drives. See Appendix D, Logic Command/Status Words:
PowerFlex 525 Drives to view details.
CompactLogix Example Creating Ladder Logic Using the RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer Drive
Add-On Profiles
Since the drive Add-On Profile automatically created descriptive controller tags
(see Controller Input Tags and Controller Output Tags on page 45) for the entire
I/O image in Chapter 4, you can use these tags to directly control and monitor
the drive without creating any ladder logic program. However, if you intend to
use Human Machine Interface devices (PanelView, etc.) to operate the drive and
view its status, you will need to create descriptive user-defined Program tags (see
CompactLogix Program Tags for Drive Add-On Profile Ladder Logic Program
Example on page 65) and a ladder logic program that will pass the Controller tag
data to the Program tags.

CompactLogix Program Tags for Drive Add-On Profile Ladder Logic Program Example
An example ladder logic program that uses the automatically-created descriptive
Controller tags and passes their data to the user-defined Program tags is shown in

Using Explicit Messaging
This chapter provides information and examples that explain how to use Explicit
Messaging to configure and monitor the PowerFlex 525 drive and embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter.
See Chapter 5, Using the I/O for information about the I/O Image, using Logic
Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and Datalinks.
About Explicit Messaging Explicit Messaging is used to transfer data that does not require continuous
updates. With Explicit Messaging, you can configure and monitor a device’s
parameters on the network.
Topic Page
About Explicit Messaging 69
Performing Explicit Messaging 70
CompactLogix Examples 70
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. If Explicit Messages are
programmedtowriteparameterdatatoNon-VolatileStorage(NVS)frequently,
the NVS will quickly exceed its life cycle and cause the drive to malfunction. Do
not create a program that frequently uses Explicit Messages to write parameter
data to NVS. Datalinks do not write to NVS and should be used for frequently
changed parameters.
ATTENTION: If you need to make frequent parameter changes using Explicit
Messages, set parameter C121 [Comm Write Mode] to 1 “RAM only”.
IMPORTANT When an explicit message is performed, by default no connection is made
sinceitisan“unconnected”message.Whentimingofthemessagetransaction
is important, you can create a dedicated message connection between the
controller and drive by checking the “Connected” box on the Communications
tab message configuration screen during message setup. These message
connections are in addition to the I/O connection. However, the trade off for
more message connections is decreased network performance. If your
application cannot tolerate this, do not check the “Connected” box, which is
recommended.

Performing Explicit
Messaging
There are five basic events in the Explicit Messaging process. The details of each
step will vary depending on the type of controller being used. See the
documentation for your controller.
Explicit Messaging Process
For information on the maximum number of Explicit Messages that can be
executed at a time, see the documentation for the bridge or scanner and/or
controller that is being used.
CompactLogix Examples
IMPORTANT PowerFlex 525 drives have explicit messaging limitations. See Explicit

more information.
EtherNet/IP Object Class Code Compatibility Explicit Messaging Function
Parameter Object 0x0F Yes Single parameter reads/write
DPI Parameter Object 0x93 Yes Single and scattered parameter reads/write
IMPORTANT There must be a request message and a response message for all Explicit
Messages, whether you are reading or writing data.
Event Description
➊ You format the required data and set up the ladder logic program to send an Explicit Message request to the
scanner or bridge module (download).
➋ The scanner or bridge module transmits the ExplicitMessage Request to the slave device over the network.
➌ The slave device transmits the Explicit Message Response back to the scanner. The data is stored in the
scanner buffer.
➍ The controller retrieves the Explicit Message Response from the scanner’s buffer (upload).
➎ The Explicit Message is complete.

Notes:

Chapter 7
Using Multi-Drive Mode
This chapter provides instructions on how to configure a CompactLogix
controller to use the PowerFlex 525 drive in Multi-drive mode.
Single-Drive Mode vs. Multi-
Drive Mode
Single-drive mode is a typical network installation, where a single EtherNet/IP
node consists of a single drive with an EtherNet/IP adapter.
Single-Drive Mode Example for Network
Multi-drive mode is an alternative to the typical network installation, where a
single EtherNet/IP node can consist of one to five drives (see Multi-Drive Mode
Example for Network on page 84). The first drive must be a PowerFlex 525 drive.
The remaining drives can be any PowerFlex drive which supports Multi-drive
mode.

Chapter 7 Using Multi-Drive Mode
Multi-Drive Mode Example for Network
Benefits of Multi-drive mode include:
• Lower hardware costs. No need to purchase additional communication
adapters for daisy-chained drives.
• Reduces the network node count. For example, in Single-drive mode 30
drives would consume 30 nodes. In Multi-drive mode, 30 drives can be
connected in 6 nodes.
• Controller can control, monitor, and read/write parameters for all five
drives.
The trade-offs of Multi-drive mode include:
• If the PowerFlex 525 with embedded EtherNet/IP adapter is powered
down, then communications with the daisy-chained drives is disrupted
and the drives will take the appropriate communications loss action set in
each drive.
• Communications throughput to the daisy-chained drives will be slower
than if each drive was a separate node on EtherNet/IP (Single-drive
mode). This is because the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter must take the
EtherNet/IP data for the other drives and sequentially send the respective
data to each drive over RS-485. The approximate additional throughput
time for Logic Command/Reference to be transmitted and received by
each drive is:
IMPORTANT For the examples in the chapter, we will use the PowerFlex 525 as a master
drive with four daisy-chained PowerFlex 4M drives.

Using Multi-Drive Mode Chapter 7
• Since the RS-485 ports are used for daisy-chaining the drives, there is no
connection for a peripheral device such as a HIM or USB converter
module (1203-USB). DSI Splitter cables cannot be used to add a second
connection for a peripheral device.
System Wiring To daisy-chain the drives of the PowerFlex 525, the AK-U0-RJ45-TB2P terminal
block connector can be used for easy installation.
The wiring diagram for using AK-U0-RJ45-TB2P terminal block connectors is
shown below.
The AK-U0-RJ45-TB2P comes with (5) terminal block connectors and (2)
terminating resistors.
Understanding the I/O Image The terms input and output are defined from the scanner’s point of view.
Therefore, Output I/O is data that is output from the scanner and consumed by
the EtherNet/IP adapter. Input I/O is status data that is produced by the adapter
and consumed as input by the scanner.
The I/O image table will vary based on the configuration of parameters C169
[MultiDrv Sel] and C175 [DSI I/O Cfg]. The image table always uses
consecutive words starting at word 0.
The Multi-Drive Example of I/O Image on page 86 is an illustration of the
Multi-drive I/O image with 16-bit words.

(1) Padwords only apply when using the generic profile. Padwords are not used when using the full-featured drive Add-On-Profile.
Note: If a daisy-chained drive is disconnected from the RS-485 (DSI) network
or powered down, the Logic Status and Feedback words for the affected drive will
be set to 0.
Configuring the RS-485
Network
The following parameters must be set in the daisy-chained PowerFlex 4M drives
and not in the master drive:
Note: The RS-485 Multi-drive network is fixed at 19.2K baud rate, 8 data bits,
no parity, and 1 stop bit.

The following Multi-drive parameters must be set in the master PowerFlex 525
drive:
Using Multi-Drive Add-On
Profile
Before using the Multi-drive Add-On Profile, ensure that you have completed the
following steps:
• The master and daisy-chained drives are powered, networked, and
configured. See System Wiring on page 85.
• The RS-485 network is configured. See Configuring the RS-485 Network
on page 86.
• The controller has been added to the I/O configuration. See Adding the
Controller to the I/O Configuration on page 38.
To transmit data between the controller and the drive, you must add the drive as a
child device to the parent controller. In this example, RSLogix 5000 version 20 is
used with drive Add-On Profile version 1.01 or later.
IMPORTANT Parameters [Comm Loss Action] and [Comm Loss Time] in the daisy-chained
drives are still used in Multi-drive mode. If the RS-485 cable is disconnected or
broken, the disconnected drive(s) will take the corresponding Comm Loss
Action(s). On the EtherNet/ IP side, parameters C143 [EN Comm Flt Actn] and
C144 [EN Idle Flt Actn] determine the action taken for ALL of the drives on the
Multi-drive node.
Parameter Value
P046 [Start Source 1] 5 “EtherNet/IP”
P047 [Speed Reference1] 15 “EtherNet/IP”
C169 [MultiDrv Sel] 0 “Disabled”
1 “Network Opt”
2 “EtherNet/IP”
Note: Drive must be power cycled after setting this
parameter.
C171 [Drv 1 Addr] C124 [RS485 Node Addr] in Drive 1

diagram. If you have not set-up your drive using the Generic Profile, see Using the
RSLogix 5000 (all versions) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) Generic
Profile on page 55 for instructions.
See Multi-Drive Example of I/O Image on page 86 for the number of 16-bit
input and output words to use for your application. In this example, the number
of input words is 12 and the number of output words is 10.
Function of the Example Program
The example program provided is for the CompactLogix family, but other Logix-
based controllers can also be used similarly. This example program enables you
to:
• View status information from the drives such as Ready, Fault, At Speed,
and Feedback.
• Control the drives using various Logic Command bits (Stop, Start, etc.)
and Reference.
• Perform a single parameter read and write for each drive. The example uses
PowerFlex 4M drive parameter P109 [Accel Time 1] for both so you can
see (read) the change after a write is performed.
The same programming approach can be used with the tags generated by the
Multi-drive Add-On Profile. Note that the tags used in this example will be
different from those created by the Multi-drive Add-On Profile.

CompactLogix EtherNet/IP Multi-Drive example program with a PowerFlex 525 on EtherNet/IP.
Four PowerFlex 4M drives are daisy-chained to the main PowerFlex 525 using their RJ45 ports (RS-485). In this mode,
up to five PowerFlex drives can exist on one EtherNet/IP node.
This rung retrieves the Logic Status and Feedback data for all five drives from the scanner (DINTs), and moves it to
specific INT tags for use elsewhere in the ladder program. The input image is as follows:
Drive_Input_Image[2] and Drive_Input_Image[3] = Drive 0 Logic Status and Feedback
This rung writes the output image to the scanner. The output image is as follows:

Multi-Drive Mode Explicit
Messaging
Parameter addressing for Explicit messaging is different in Multi-drive mode than
in Single-drive mode. In Single-drive mode, the Instance value in the message
equals the desired parameter number in the drive. In Multi-drive mode, an
Instance table is used to account for the parameters in the adapter and up to 5
drives. The parameters in the adapter and each of the drives are offset by 400 hex
(1024 decimal):
For example, to access [Accel Time 1] (parameter P041 in PowerFlex 525 and
P109 in PowerFlex 4M) in each of the drives, the following Instances would be
used:
• Drive 0 (PowerFlex 525) Instance = 41(0 + 41)
• Drive 1 (PowerFlex 4M) Instance = 17517 (17408 + 109)
Drive 1 Explicit Message Example
The Explicit message examples in the CompactLogix example program perform a
read and a write to PowerFlex 4M parameter P109 [Accel Time 1]. The
configuration for the read is shown in Parameter Read Message Configuration on
page 108 and the write is shown in Parameter Write Message Configuration on
page 108.

The Class Code is “f ” for the Parameter Object and the Instance Attribute is “1”
to select retrieving the parameter value. See Appendix C, Parameter Object for
more information. The Instance value is “17517” to access parameter P109
[Accel Time 1] in the first daisy-chained drive.
The Explicit message for Drive 1 to Drive 4 are identical except for the Instance
values, see Multi-Drive Mode Explicit Messaging on page 107 for examples.
Additional Information • When the PowerFlex 525 drive (Drive 0) is powered up, all configured
daisy-chained drives must be present before an I/O connection is allowed
on EtherNet/IP (before the drives can be controlled).
• If the PowerFlex 525 drive (Drive 0) is powered down, communications
with the four daisy-chained drives (Drive 1 to Drive 4) are disrupted and
the drives will take their corresponding Comm Loss Actions.

• If any of the daisy-chained drives (Drive 1 to Drive 4) are powered down,
the respective Input Image (Logic Status and Feedback) will be set to zero.
Status information will not indicate there is a fault at the node, and the
I/O connection will not be dropped.

Viewing and Clearing Events The adapter has an event queue to record significant events that occur in the
operation of the adapter. When such an event occurs, an entry consisting of the
event’s numeric code and a timestamp is put into the event queue. You can view
the event queue using the PowerFlex 22-HIM-A3/-C2S HIM or Connected
Components Workbench.
The event queue can contain up to 32 entries, which are stored in RAM—
making the event queue volatile, meaning a power cycle will clear the event queue.
If the event queue becomes full, a new entry replaces the oldest entry. Only a
power cycle, event queue clear operation, or the corruption of the RAM group
containing the event queue will clear the event queue contents.
Many events in the event queue occur under normal operation. If you encounter
unexpected communications problems, the events may help you or Allen-Bradley
personnel troubleshoot the problem. The following events may appear in the
event queue:

20 Extended Parameter Reference 0 = Not an Extended Parameter Reference
1 = Extended Parameter Reference
An Extended Parameter Reference contains a reference to another parameter. The value is formatted the same as an analogmode Indirect
Selector parameter (SSpppp, where SS = slot number of device to which this Extended Parameter Reference is pointing, and pppp =
number of the parameter or diagnostic item to which this Extended Parameter Reference is pointing). Note that an Extended Parameter
ReferencecanonlyselectparametersunlikeanIndirectSelector.AnExtendedParameterReferencecouldbeusedtoconfigureaDatalinkor
show the source of a Reference (among other uses).
21 Uses Rating Table Object This parameter has rating-dependent defaults and limits that can be obtained from the Rating Table Object. The Offline Read Full will
include the default value for the smallest rating and limits that will accommodate the full range of values allowed in the family of devices
using this particular combinationofFamilyCode andConfigCode. The Online ReadFullwillinclude therating-dependent defaultand limit
values for this particular combination of Family Code, Config Code, and Rating Code.
22 Writable ReferencedParameter ThisbitmustbezerounlesstheparameterisanExtendedParameterReference.IftheparameterisanExtendedParameterReference,then:
0 = The referenced parameter may be read-only or writable.
1 = The referenced parameter must always be writable (including while running).
23 Disallow Zero This bit must be zero unless the parameter is an Indirect Selector or Extended Parameter Reference. If the parameter is an Indirect Selector
or Extended Parameter Reference, then:
0 = Allow zero
1 = Disallow zero
If this bit is cleared (indicating that a value of zero is allowed), the device must support the “Zero Text” parameter attribute so that a
software tool or HIM can obtain text from the Zero Text parameter attribute.
If this bit is set (indicating that a value of zero is disallowed), a software tool or HIM will not allow the user to enter a value of zero.
24 Datalink Out This bit is used by offline tools and indicates that this is a Datalink Out parameter. Bit 20 must also be set.
25 Datalink In This bit is used by offline tools and indicates thatthis is a Datalink In parameter. Bits 20 and 22 must also be set.
26 Not Writable While IO Active This parameter cannot be written if the I/O data being exchanged between the Host and the peripheral is valid.
27 Command Parameter This parameter commands the drive to take an action, such as “Reset Defaults” or “Autotune,” and then returns to a value of zero. Offline
software tools will not allow setting this parameter to anythingother than a value of zero. If an offline file contains a Command Parameter
with a non-zero value, the offline software tool will change the value to zero.Note that command parameters cannot have values that do
not return to zero.
28 Current Value Is Default This bit identifies a parameter that will not change if a “Reset Defaults” is commanded. For example, if a drive contains a Language
parameterthatissettoGerman,settingdefaultswillleavetheparametersettoGerman.Likewise,iftheparameterissettoFrench,setting
defaults will leave the parameter set to French.
29 Use Zero Text If the “Disallow Zero” bit is set, this bit must be cleared. If the “Disallow Zero” bit is cleared, then:
0 = Use Disabled Text parameter class attribute.
1 = Use Zero Text parameter instance attribute.

Notes:

Glossary
The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout this manual.For
definitions of terms not listed here, see the Allen-Bradley Industrial Automation
Glossary, publication AG-7.1.
Adapter Devices such as drives, controllers, and computers usually require an adapter to
provide a communication interface between them and a network such as
EtherNet/IP. An adapter reads data on the network and transmits it to the
connected device. It also reads data in the device and transmits it to the network.
The embedded EtherNet/IP adapter connects its PowerFlex 525 drive to an
EtherNet/IP network. Adapters are sometimes also called “cards,” “embedded
communication options,” “gateways,” “modules,” and “peripherals.”
ADC (Automatic Device Configura-
tion)
An RSLogix 5000 (version 20) and Logix Designer (version 21 or greater)
feature that supports the automatic download of configuration data upon the
Logix controller establishing an EtherNet/IP network connection to a
PowerFlex525 drive and its associated peripherals.
BootP (Bootstrap Protocol) BootP lets the adapter configure itself dynamically at boot time if the network
has a BootP server. The BootP server assigns the adapter a preconfigured IP
address, a subnet mask, and a gateway address; therefore, you do not have to
configure these using the parameters in the adapter. BootP can make it easier to
administer an Ethernet network. A free version of Rockwell Software’s BootP
Server can be accessed at http://www.ab.com/networks.
Bridge A network device that can route messages from one network to another. A bridge
also refers to a communications module in a ControlLogix or CompactLogix
controller that connects the controller to a network. See also Scanner.
CIP (Common Industrial Protocol) CIP is the transport and application layer protocol used for messaging over
EtherNet/IP, ControlNet, and DeviceNet networks. The protocol is used for
implicit messaging (real-time I/O) and explicit messaging (configuration, data
collection, and diagnostics).
ControlFLASH An Allen-Bradley software tool that lets users electronically update firmware on
printed circuit boards.
Controller A controller, also called programmable logic controller, is a solid-state control
system that has a user-programmable memory for storage of instructions to
implement specific functions such as I/O control, logic, timing, counting, report
generation, communication, arithmetic, and data file manipulation. A controller
consists of a central processor, input/output interface, and memory. See also
Scanner.

Glossary
Data Rate The speed at which data is transferred on the EtherNet/IP network. You can set
the adapter to a data rate of 10Mbps Full-Duplex, 10Mbps Half-Duplex,
100Mbps Full-Duplex, or 100Mbps Half-Duplex. If another device on the
network sets or auto-negotiates the data rate, you can set the adapter to
automatically detect the data rate.
Datalinks A Datalink is a type of pointer used by PowerFlex 525 drives to transfer data to
and from the controller. Datalinks allow specified parameter value(s) to be
accessed or changed without using explicit messages. When enabled, each 16-bit
Datalink in a PowerFlex 525 drive consumes 4 bytes in the input image table and/
or 4 bytes in the output image table of the controller.
Duplex Duplex describes the mode of communication. Full-duplex communications let a
device exchange data in both directions at the same time. Half-duplex
communications let a device exchange data only in one direction at a time. The
duplex used by the adapter depends on the type of duplex that other network
devices, such as switches, support.
EDS (Electronic Data Sheet) Files Simple text files that are used by network configuration tools to describe
products so that you can easily commission them on a network. EDS files
describe a product device type and revision. EDS files for many Allen-Bradley
products can be found at http://www.ab.com/networks/eds.
EtherNet/IP Network EtherNet/IP (Industrial Protocol) is an open producer-consumer
communication network based on the Ethernet standard (IEEE 802.3), TCP/IP,
UDP/IP, and CIP. Designed for industrial communications, both I/O and
explicit messages can be transmitted over the network. Each device is assigned a
unique IP address and transmits data on the network. The number of devices that
an EtherNet/IP network can support depends on the class of IP address. For
example, a network with a Class C IP address can have 254 nodes.
General information about EtherNet/IP and the EtherNet/IP specification are
maintained by the Open DeviceNet Vendor’s Association (ODVA). ODVA is
online at http://www.odva.org.
Explicit Messaging Explicit messages are used to transfer data that does not require continuous
updates. They are typically used to configure, monitor, and diagnose devices over
the network.
Fault Action A fault action determines how the adapter and connected drive act when a
communications fault (for example, a cable is disconnected) occurs or when the
controller is switched out of run mode. The former uses a communications fault
action, and the latter uses an idle fault action.
Fault Configuration When communications are disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
adapter and its PowerFlex 525 drive can respond with a user-defined fault

Glossary
configuration. The user sets the data that is sent to the drive using specific fault
configuration parameters in the adapter. When a fault action parameter is set to
use the fault configuration data and a fault occurs, the data from these parameters
is sent as the Logic Command, Reference, and/or Datalink(s).
Flash Update The process of updating firmware in a device. The adapter can be flash updated
using various Allen-Bradley software tools.
Gateway A device on a network that connects an individual network to a system of
networks. When a node needs to communicate with a node on another network,
a gateway transfers the data between the two networks. You need to configure the
address for the gateway device in the adapter if you want the adapter to
communicate with devices that are not on its network.
Hardware Address Each Ethernet device has a unique hardware address (sometimes called a MAC
address) that is 48 bits. The address appears as six digits separated by colons (for
example, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx). Each digit has a value between 0 and 255 (0x00 and
0xFF). This address is assigned in the hardware and cannot be changed. It is
required to identify the device if you are using a BootP utility.
HIM (Human Interface Module) A device that can be used to configure and control a drive. The PowerFlex 22-
HIM-A3 or 22-HIM-C2S HIM can be used to configure PowerFlex 525 drives
and their connected peripherals.
Hold Last When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
adapter and its PowerFlex 525 drive can respond by holding last. Hold last results
in the drive receiving the last data received through the network connection
before the disruption. If the drive was running and using the Reference from the
adapter, it will continue to run at the same Reference.
Idle Action An idle action determines how the adapter and its PowerFlex 525 drive act when
the controller is switched out of run mode.
I/O Data I/O data, sometimes called “implicit messages” or “input/output,” is time-critical
data such as a Logic Command and Reference. The terms “input” (To Net) and
“output” (From Net) are defined from the controller’s point of view. Output is
produced by the controller and consumed by the adapter. Input is produced by
the adapter and consumed by the controller.
IP Addresses A unique IP address identifies each node on an EtherNet/IP network. An IP
address consists of 32 bits that are divided into four segments of one byte each. It
appears as four decimal integers separated by periods (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). Each
“xxx” can have a decimal value from 0 to 255. For example, an IP address could be
192.168.0.1.

Glossary
An IP address has two parts: a network ID and a host ID. The class of network
determines the format of the address.
The number of devices on your EtherNet/IP network will vary depending on the
number of bytes that are used for the network address. In many cases you are
given a network with a Class C address, in which the first three bytes contain the
network address (subnet mask = 255.255.255.0). This leaves 8 bits or 256
addresses on your network. Because two addresses are reserved for special uses (0
is an address for the network usually used by the router, and 255 is an address for
broadcast messages to all network devices), you have 254 addresses to use on a
Class C address block.
To ensure that each device on the Internet has a unique address, contact your
network administrator or Internet Service Provider for unique fixed IP addresses.
You can then set the unique IP address for the adapter by using a BootP server or
by manually configuring parameters in the adapter. The adapter reads the values
of these parameters only at power-up.
Logic Command/Logic Status The Logic Command is used to control the PowerFlex 525 drive (for example,
start, stop, direction). It consists of one 32-bit word of output to the adapter from
the network. The definitions of the bits in this word are shown in Appendix D.
The Logic Status is used to monitor the PowerFlex 525 drive (for example,
operating state, motor direction). It consists of one 32-bit word of input from the
adapter to the network. The definitions of the bits in this word are shown in
Appendix D.
Logix Designer The Logix Designer application is the rebranding of RSLogix 5000 software and
will continue to be the product to program Logix 5000 controllers for discrete,
process, batch, motion, safety, and drive-based solutions. It is a 32-bit application
that runs on various Windows operating systems. Information about Logix
Designer software can be found at http://www.software.rockwell.com/rslogix.
Master-Slave Hierarchy An adapter configured for a master-slave hierarchy exchanges data with the
master device. Usually, a network has one scanner which is the master device, and
all other devices (for example, drives connected to EtherNet/IP adapters) are
slave devices.
On a network with multiple scanners (called a multi-master hierarchy), each slave
device must have a scanner specified as a master.
0 1 7 15 23 31
Class A 0 Network ID Host ID
0 1 7 15 23 31
Class B 1 0 Network ID Host ID
0 1 2 7 15 23 31
Class C 1 1 0 Network ID Host ID

Glossary
NVS (Non-Volatile Storage) NVS is the permanent memory of a device. Devices such as the adapter and drive
store parameters and other information in NVS so that they are not lost when the
device loses power. NVS is sometimes called “EEPROM.”
PCCC (Programmable Controller
Communications Command)
PCCC is the protocol used by some controllers to communicate with devices on
a network. Some software products (for example, DriveExplorer and
DriveExecutive) also use PCCC to communicate.
Ping A message that is sent on the network to determine if a node exists.
PowerFlex 525 Drives The Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 525 drives are part of the PowerFlex 520-series of
drives.
Reference/Feedback The Reference is used to send a setpoint (for example, speed, frequency, torque)
to the drive. It consists of one 32-bit word of output to the adapter from the
network.
RSLogix RSLogix software is a tool for configuring and monitoring controllers to
communicate with connected devices. It is a 32-bit application that runs on
various Windows operating systems. Information about RSLogix software can be
found at http://www.software.rockwell.com/rslogix.
Scanner A scanner is a separate module (of a multi-module controller) or a built-in
component (of a single-module controller) that provides communication with
adapters connected to a network. See also Controller.
Status Indicators Status indicators are LEDs that are used to report the status of the adapter,
network, and drive. They are on the adapter and can be viewed on the front cover
of the drive when the drive is powered.
Subnet Mask An extension to the IP addressing scheme that lets you use a single network ID
for multiple physical networks. A bit mask identifies the part of the address that
specifies the network and the part of the address that specifies the unique node
on the network. A “1” in the subnet mask indicates the bit is used to specify the
network. A “0” in the subnet mask indicates that the bit is used to specify the
node.
For example, a subnet mask on a network may appear as follows: 11111111
11111111 11111111 11000000 (255.255.255.192). This mask indicates that 26
bits are used to identify the network and 6 bits are used to identify devices on
each network. Instead of a single physical Class C network with 254 devices, this
subnet mask divides it into four networks with up to 62 devices each.

Glossary
Switches Network devices that provide virtual connections that help to control collisions
and reduce traffic on the network. They are able to reduce network congestion by
transmitting packets to an individual port only if they are destined for the
connected device. In a control application, in which real time data access is
critical, network switches may be required in place of hubs.
TCP (Transmission Control Proto-
col)
EtherNet/IP uses this protocol to transfer Explicit Messaging packets using IP.
TCP guarantees delivery of data through the use of retries.
UDP (User Datagram Protocol) EtherNet/IP uses this protocol to transfer I/O packets using IP. UDP provides a
simple, but fast capability to send I/O messaging packets between devices. This
protocol ensures that adapters transmit the most recent data because it does not
use acknowledgements or retries.
UDDT (User-Defined Data Type) A structure data type that you define during the development of an application
(for example, to convert 32-bit REAL parameter data to correctly write and read
their values).
Zero Data When communications are disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
adapter and drive can respond with zero data. Zero data results in the drive
receiving zero as values for Logic Command, Reference, and Datalink data. If the
drive was running and using the Reference from the adapter, it will stay running
but at zero Reference.
