Configuring the I/O

Chapter 4

Examples of potential issues/solutions are shown in the following table.

Using the RSLogix 5000 Generic Profile, All Versions

We recommend that you only use the basic RSLogix 5000 software Generic
Profile for any of the following reasons:

A specific drive profile in other versions of RSLogix 5000 software is
unavailable.

Users are already familiar with a Generic Profile and do not want to
convert an existing project to a drive Add-on Profile (RSLogix 5000
software, version 16.00 or later).

A project must maintain specific revision level control.

The controller cannot be taken offline. RSLogix 5000 software, version
16.00 or later, enables the drive Generic Profile to be added while the
controller is online and in the Run mode.

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.

1.

In the treeview, right-click on the bridge and choose New Module to
display the Select Module dialog box.

In our example, we right-click on the 1756-ENBT/A bridge.

Inhibited

The program has the connection inhibited. You can uninhibit the connection on the
Connection tab.

Faulted

A problem is preventing the controller from connecting to the drive (for example, the device
at the IP address provided is not a PowerFlex 750-Series drive). Clicking the Connection tab
will show the cause (Module Fault). Clicking the Drive tab may also show the faulted ports.

Issue

Solution

‘Compatible module’ keying selected, but
replacement drive or peripheral has an earlier
firmware revision than the failed device.

Replace device with a revision that is later than or equal to the
failed device. If necessary, use ControlFLASH software to upgrade
the replacement device first to an acceptable revision level.

Peripheral is required for connection (‘Fail Drive
Connection on Peripheral Error’ was checked), but
it is missing.

Add required peripheral or remove peripheral from RSLogix 5000
project for the drive and download project to the controller.

A Safe Speed Monitor Module is used.

A manual ‘step’ is required to enter the safety password and
validate the system. See the section

Special Considerations When

Using a 20-750-S1 Safe Speed Monitor Module on page 70

for

additional information.

Parameter ‘out of range’ error—ADC wrote a
value to a parameter that was out of range
(typically would only occur during initial
commissioning of a drive system).

Use any available drive software tool to view a linear list of
changed parameters to see if the configured value is outside the
minimum/maximum value. Version 4.02 (or later) Drive AOPs are
the preferred tool and will highlight any out of range parameter in
the Linear List editor.
