Configuring the I/O
•
Drive Add-on Profiles, version 2.01 or later, 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
to download the latest RSLogix 5000 drive Add-on
Profile.
Add the Drive/Adapter to the I/O Configuration
To transmit data between the bridge and the drive, you must add the drive as a
child device to the parent bridge. In this example, RSLogix 5000 software version
16.00 is used with drive Add-on Profile version 3.01. To determine your drive
Add-On Profile version, see Allen-Bradley Knowledgebase document #65882.
1.
In the treeview, right-click on the bridge and select New Module to display
the Select Module dialog box.
In our example, we right-click on the 1756-ENBT/A bridge. Expand the
Drives group to display all of the available drives with their
communication adapters.
2.
From the list, select the drive and its connected adapter.
For this example, we selected ‘PowerFlex 755-EENET’.
3.
Click OK.
TIP
If the PowerFlex drive is not shown, go to
wnload the latest RSLogix 5000 drive Add-
on Profile. Add-on Profile version 4.03 (or later) includes profiles for
PowerFlex 750-Series drives with the 20-750-ENETR option module.
