Using Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) with RSLogix 5000
Software, Version 20.00 or Later

Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) is an ‘RSLogix 5000 software, version
20.00 or later, feature’ that supports the automatic download of configuration
data. This occurs after the Logix controller establishes an EtherNet/IP network
connection to a PowerFlex 750-Series drive, firmware revision 4.001 or later, and
its associated peripherals.

An RSLogix 5000 software, version 16.00 or later, project (.ACD file) contains
the configuration settings for any PowerFlex drives in the project. When the
project is downloaded to the Logix controller, these settings are also transferred
and reside in the controller’s memory. Prior to ADC in RSLogix 5000 software
version 20.00, downloading PowerFlex 750-Series drive configuration data was a
manual process where the user would open the Drive tab in the respective Drive
Add-on Profile (AOP) in RSLogix 5000 software and click the Download icon.
