Map the PowerFlex 755 Drive Port Assignment to the Axis
Follow these instructions to map the drive port to the axis.
1. Go the Module Properties of the drive.
2. Click the Associated Axis tab.
Axis 1 on the Associated Axes tab in Module Properties corresponds to the
Axis 1 listed on the General tab on the Axis Properties, see step 2 on page
54.
For more detailed examples, see Axis Configuration Examples for the
PowerFlex 755 Drive on page 121.
3. Click OK.
Establish Feedback Port Assignments for the PowerFlex 755 Drive
There are two ways to establish the drive/axis associations.
• The first way is to assign the drive to the axis on the Associated Axis tab in
the Module Properties dialog box.
• The second way is to assign the axis to the drive on the General Category
dialog box.
Unlike a Kinetix 6500 drive where the motor feedback association is automatic,
you must manually establish the motor feedback (Port/Channel) assignment for
the PowerFlex 755 drive.
Follow these instructions to associate an axis to the drive by using the Module
Properties dialog box for the drive.
1. Right-click the PowerFlex 755 and choose Properties.
