Programming and Parameters
This chapter provides a complete listing and description of the PowerFlex 700
parameters. The parameters can be programmed (viewed/edited) using an LCD
HIM (Human Interface Module). As an alternative, programming can also be
performed using DriveExplorer™ or DriveExecutive™ software and a personal
computer. See
Appendix B for a brief description of the LCD HIM.
About Parameters To configure a drive to operate in a specific way, drive parameters may have to be
set. Three types of parameters exist:
• ENUM Parameters
ENUM parameters allow a selection from 2 or more items. The LCD
HIM will display a text message for each item.
• Bit Parameters
Bit parameters have individual bits associated with features or conditions.
If the bit is 0, the feature is off or the condition is false. If the bit is 1, the
feature is on or the condition is true.
• Numeric Parameters
These parameters have a single numerical value (that is, 0.1 Volts).
The example on the following page shows how each parameter type is presented
in this manual.
