Rockwell Automation Logix5000 Systems: Connecting PowerFlex 40 Drives over an EtherNet/IP Network Quick Start - Manual (Page 5)

Rockwell Automation Publication IASIMP-QS029A-EN-P - February 2012 5
Preface
About This Publication
This quick start provides examples and procedures for integrating a PowerFlex  40 drive in a
Logix5000

control system over an EtherNet/IP network. The programming examples are not
complex, and offer easy solutions to verify that devices are functioning and communicating
properly.
Before Using This Publication
You can only use the tasks described in this publication after first completing some prerequisite
tasks with a Logix5000 controller. For example, before you can add a PowerFlex 40 drive to an
RSLogix

5000 project, as described on page 21 , you must first create the project.
Table 1 describes the tasks you must complete before using this publication.
For more information on how to complete these tasks with specific Logix5000 controllers, see
the Integrated Architecture
 : Logix5000 Control Systems Quick Starts Quick Reference,
publication IASIMP-QR024 .
IMPORTANT This publication describes example tasks you can complete when using a PowerFlex 40 drive on an EtherNet/IP
network. The tasks described are not the only tasks you can complete with a PowerFlex 40 drive on an EtherNet/IP
network.
IMPORTANT The cover that ships with your PowerFlex 40 drive is insufficient to complete the tasks described in this chapter. You
must use either a 22B-CCB Frame B drive cover or 22B-CCC Frame C drive cover.
This quick start describes tasks that use a 22B-CCB Frame B drive cover.
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.
