Use a PowerFlex 70 Drive in an RSLogix 5000 Project
In this chapter, you complete the following tasks:
•
Create DeviceNet tags with the DeviceNet Tag Generator tool
•
Download the updated RSLogix 5000 project to your controller
•
Test the drive tags
IMPORTANT
Multiple Logix5000 control systems can use PowerFlex 70 drives over a DeviceNet network. For example purposes,
this quick start describes the use of PowerFlex 70 drives over a DeviceNet network in a CompactLogix 5370 L3
control system that includes a 1769-SDN scanner module in a local expansion module slot.
This section uses an RSLogix 5000 project that matches the control system described previously and is named
PFlex70_Drive_on_DeviceNet_quick_start.acd
. The 1769-SDN scanner module has been configured so the
RSNetWorx tab links the RSLogix 5000 project to the DeviceNet file created in
Create a DeviceNet Configuration File
.
If you use a different Logix5000 controller and DeviceNet scanner module, you can complete the tasks in this
chapter but must account for any software differences.
