Preface
About This Publication
This quick start provides examples and procedures for including a PowerFlex  70 drive in a

Before Using This Publication
You can only complete the tasks described in this publication after first completing some
prerequisite tasks with a Logix5000 controller. For example, before you can add a PowerFlex 70
drive to an RSLogix
 5000 project, as described in page 21 , you must first create the project in a
Logix5000 controller.
Table 1 describes the tasks you must complete before using this publication.
IMPORTANT This publication describes example tasks you complete when using a PowerFlex 70 drive on an EtherNet/IP network.
The tasks described are not the only tasks you can complete with the PowerFlex 70 drive on an EtherNet/IP network.
IMPORTANT The example graphics shown in Table 1 - Required Tasks to Complete Before Using this Quick Start on page 6 are for
CompactLogix

5370 L3 controllers. Depending on the Logix5000 controller you are using, the specific steps to
complete the tasks described in the table might vary.
