Chapter 1 Getting Started
Features
The features of the adapter include:
• Mounting onto a PowerFlex 520-series drive Control Module back cover
for installation into the drive.
• Switches to set a node address before applying power to the PowerFlex
drive. Alternatively, you can disable the switches and use parameters to
configure these functions.
• Compatibility with various configuration tools to configure the adapter
and host drive, including the following:
– PowerFlex 520-series drive built-in keypad
– PowerFlex 22-HIM-A3 or 22-HIM-C2S HIM (Human Interface
Module)
– Connected Components Workbench (version 3 or greater)
– ControlFLASH software (version 7 or greater)
– Third-party PROFIBUS configuration software, such as Prosoft
Configuration Builder
• Status indicators that report the status of the adapter and network
communications.
• Parameter-configured 16-bit Datalinks in the I/O to meet application
requirements (four Datalinks to write data and four Datalinks to read
data).
• Acylic 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
PROFIBUS node.
• User-defined fault actions to determine how the adapter and its host
PowerFlex 520-series drive respond to the following:
– I/O messaging communication disruptions (Comm Flt Action)
– Controllers in idle mode (Idle Flt Action)
Understanding Parameter
Types
This manual references two types of parameters:
• Device parameters are used to configure the adapter to operate on the
network. These parameters reside on the adapter.
• Host parameters are used to configure the drive, including the datalink
configuration for the datalinks used by the adapter. These parameters
reside on the drive.
