Operator Interface 3-3
7000 “A” Frame
7000A-UM151D-EN-P – March 2013
Overview
The operator interface used on the PowerFlex 7000 Medium Voltage 
Drive is that of the PanelView 550 terminal (Figure 3.1). This 
terminal however does not behave as a PanelView, as only the 
hardware for the operator interface has been utilized. The 
PanelView software has been replaced with unique software to tailor 
it to the requirements of the Medium Voltage Drive, and its faceplate 
has been modified (Figure 3.1).

The keypad of the operator interface consists of two rows of five 
function keys (item 1 of Figure 3.1) located below the operator 
interface display area (item 4 of Figure 3.1). In the lower right 
corner of the operator interface are four keys, which will be referred 
to as the cursor keys (item 2 of Figure 3.1). Above the cursor keys 
are data entry keys consisting of the numeric values 0-9, a decimal 
point (.), a negative (-), a backspace key and a data entry key (item 3 
of Figure 3.1). 
 
 
All keys are of a membrane type. The key is executed upon release.
Function (Softkeys) Keys
 
 
Along the bottom of the display area is one or two rows of 'Softkeys'. 
These 'Softkeys' represent the physical function keys. The function 
of the actual keys will vary between displays. The bottom row of 
keys (i.e. F6-F10) is always shown. The upper row is shown only if 
they are required for keys (F2-F5). Thus a single row of 'Softkeys' 
always refers to the keys F6-F10.
