What is DriveLogix5730?

The DriveLogix controller is part of the Logix environment. The
DriveLogix controller provides a distributed control system built on these
components:

• The DriveLogix5730 controller has one RS-232 port. The controller

supports the Logix instructions.

• RSLogix 5000 programming software that supports every Logix

controller.

• Direct connection to host PowerFlex 700S drive.

• Compact I/O modules that provide a compact, DIN-rail or panel

mounted I/O system.

• Embedded EtherNet/IP option provides communication over an

EtherNet/IP network.

• 1788 communication daughtercard that provides communication over a

standards-based ControlNet, EtherNet/IP, DeviceNet or third party
network.

The newer DriveLogix5730 controller offers significant performance and
capacity improvements over the DriveLogix5720 controller. It offers:

• increased user memory up to 1.5 Mbytes

• CompactFlash for non-volatile memory storage

• extended I/O capacity up to 16 I/O modules
