6. In the Module Definition dialog box, edit the following information.
On the Module Definition dialog box, notice that the automatically-
assigned controller tags DriveStatus, Feedback, LogicCommand, and
Reference are always used.
However, when using Datalinks you must still assign Host Parameters
01…16 - [DL From Net 01-16] and Host Parameters 17…32 - [DL To
Net 01-16] to point to the appropriate drive or connected peripheral
Box Setting
Revision The major and minor revision of the firmware (database) in the drive. If the drive’s major
and minor revision is not available, the drive database is not installed on your computer.
To get the correct database revision, use one of the following buttons at the bottom left of
the Module Definition dialog box:
• Create Database: Creates a database from an online network drive. Clicking this
button displays an RSLinx software RSWho dialog box. Browse to the online drive (for
this example, PowerFlex 753), select it, and click OK. The database will be uploaded
and stored on the computer. Thereafter, close the Module Definition dialog box and
then re-open it to display the new revision.
• Web Update: When a drive is not available online, opens the Allen-Bradley Drives
Web Updates website to download a specific database file. After downloading the file,
close the Module Definition dialog box and then re-open it to display the new revision.
• Match Drive: Use this button when the drive being added to the network matches
the drive profile (revision, rating, Datalinks, configuration settings, and so forth) of an
existing online network drive. Click this button to conveniently create a duplicate drive
profile from the online drive, and automatically load this identical information into
the Module Definition dialog box. This eliminates the need to manually enter the
information each time a new drive with a matching profile is added to the network.
Electronic
Keying Compatible Module. The “Compatible Module” setting for Electronic Keying verifies
that the physical module is consistent with the software configuration before the
controller and bridge make a connection. Therefore, be sure that you have set the correct
revision in this dialog box. See the online Help for additional information on this and
other Electronic Keying settings. If keying is not required, select “Disable Keying.” Drives
do not require keying, and so “Disable Keying” is recommended.
When using RSLogix 5000 software, version 20 or later, and Automatic Device
Configuration (ADC) with Firmware Supervisor upgrade support to store firmware for the
drive, always choose “Exact Match.” When using ADC, see the table on
page 70 for more
details.
Drive Rating The voltage and current rating of the drive. If the drive rating is not listed, the drive
database is not installed on your computer. To get the drive rating, use the Create
Database, Web Update, or Match Drive button described above.
Rating Options Selects the drive power output required for the application. This must match the drive’s
actual rating.
Special Types Reserved for future use.
Connection Parameters via Datalinks. When selecting “Parameters via Datalinks” (default), the
controller tags for the Datalinks use the drive parameter names to which they are assigned.
When selecting “Datalinks,” the controller tags for the Datalinks have non-descriptive
UserDefinedData[n] names like those used in RSLogix 5000 software, version 15.00.
Data Format Parameters. When the Connection field is set to “Parameters via Datalinks,”
“Parameters” is automatically selected. When the Connection field is set to “Datalinks,”
you must select the number of Datalinks required for your application in the “Data
Format” field.
Input Data Assigns selected drive or connected peripheral parameters to be READ by the controller
using DL To Net Datalinks. See steps 6a through 6e below for details.
Output Data Assigns selected drive or connected peripheral parameters to be WRITTEN by the
controller using DL From Net Datalinks. See steps 6a through 6e below for details.
Use Network
Reference Conveniently selects the speed reference for the drive to come from the network. This box
is checked by default.
