Important Program and Operator Control Transfer Considerations

The first three rungs of each AOI handle the transfer of control from the Logix program (Program Control) to the
faceplate (Operator Control). The two Operator Control rungs are shown below. It is important to understand how these
rungs operate so your desired program to operator and operator to program control transfers are achieved.

For example, these rungs enable the Operator Control of the intended PowerFlex drive. Command requests (Cmd) can be
initiated from either the Logix Programs (ProgOperReq) or RSViewME/SE PowerFlex Faceplate (OperOperReq).

The following is a specific drive example:

EXAMPLE

To enable Operator Control for a drive associated with ‘Motor_1’ AOI instance, a rung can be added to the Logix MainRoutine with
specific input conditions driving an output instruction with the tag name ‘Motor_1.Cmd_ProgOperReq’. Also, a pushbutton in an
RSView ME/SE faceplate can be added with a value tag name of ‘#1.Cmd_OperOperReq’ with the #1 parameter for that faceplate
display associated with ‘Motor_1’ tag.

A ‘Motor_1.Cmd_ProgToOperPermissive’ must also be included in the Logix Program to control whether Program to Operator
Control transfer requests are allowed or acted upon. A tag value of 1 permits the associated control transfer requests. A value of 0
prevents the associated control transfer requests.
