Press the PAR# soft key to display the Jump to Param # entry pop-up box. 4.
Configuring the Option Module Chapter 3 IMPORTANT Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order, starting with the first parameter. For example, use Host Parameters 01, 02, and 03 to configure three Datalinks to write data. Otherwise, the network I/O connection will be larger than necessary, which needlessly increases controller response time and memory usage.
Chapter 3 Configuring the Option Module After the above steps are complete, the option module is ready to receive input data and transfer status data to the master (controller). Next, configure the controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the option module. See Chapter 4, Configuring the I/O. Enable Datalinks To Read Data The controller input image (drive-to-controller inputs) can have 0 to 16 additional 32-bit parameters (Datalinks).
Configuring the Option Module Chapter 3 1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous drive-tocontroller Datalinks needed to read data from the drive and that are to be included in the network I/O connection. 2. Reset the option module; see Resetting the Option Module on page 31. The option module is configured to send output data to the master (controller). You must now configure the controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the option module. See Chapter 4, Configuring the I/O.

Chapter 5 Using the I/O This chapter provides information and examples that explain how to control, configure, and monitor a PowerFlex 750-Series drive using the configured I/O. Topic Page About I/O Messaging 61 Understanding the ControlLogix Controller I/O Image 62 Using Logic Command/Status 63 Using Reference/Feedback 63 Using Datalinks 64 Example Ladder Logic Program Information 65 ControlLogix Controller Example 66 ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Chapter 5 Using the I/O Understanding the ControlLogix Controller I/O Image The terms ‘input’ and ‘output’ are defined from the controller’s point of view. Therefore, output I/O is data that is produced by the controller and consumed by the option module. Input I/O is status data that is produced by the option module and consumed as input by the controller.
Using the I/O Using Logic Command/Status Chapter 5 The Logic Command is a 32-bit word of control data produced by the controller and consumed by the option module. The Logic Status is a 32-bit word of status data produced by the option module and consumed by the controller. When using a ControlLogix controller, the Logic Command word is always DINT 0 in the output image and the Logic Status word is always: • DINT 0 in the input image when using the drive Add-on Profile.
Chapter 5 Using the I/O When Parameter 300 - [Speed Units] is set to RPM, the other parameters are also in RPM.

Using the I/O Chapter 5 Controller Tags When you add the option module and drive to the I/O configuration (Chapter 4), RSLogix 5000 software automatically creates generic (nondescriptive) controller tags. In this example program, the following controller tags are used. You can expand the Input and Output tags to reveal the input and output configuration. The Input tag for this example program requires nineteen 32-bit words of data (see Figure 13).
Chapter 5 Using the I/O Program Tags To use the Controller tags that are automatically created, you need to create the following Program tags for this example program.
Using the I/O Chapter 5 Figure 16 - ControlLogix Controller Example Ladder Logic Program Using a Drive Generic Profile for Logic Command/Reference Example Datalink Data The Datalink data used in the example program is shown in Figure 17. Note that to describe the parameters to which the Datalinks are assigned, you may want to add descriptions to the automatically-created generic controller tags or create a UDDT.
Chapter 5 Using the I/O Figure 17 - ControlLogix Controller Example Datalinks for Ladder Logic Program Using a Drive Generic Profile TIP 72 To determine whether a parameter is a 32-bit integer (DINT) or a REAL data type, see the Data Type column in the chapter containing parameters in the PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Programming Manual, publication 750PM001. If a parameter is a REAL, a COP (Copy) instruction or UDDT is needed to copy the DINT to a REAL (inputs) or copy the REAL to a DINT (outputs).
Chapter 6 Using Explicit Messaging This chapter provides information and examples that explain how to use Explicit Messaging with a ControlLogix controller to configure and monitor the option module and connected PowerFlex 750-Series drive. Topic Page About Explicit Messaging 74 Performing Explicit Messaging 75 ControlLogix Controller Examples 76 ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. The examples in this publication are intended solely for purposes of example.
Chapter 6 Using Explicit Messaging About Explicit Messaging Explicit Messaging is used to transfer data that does not require continuous updates. With Explicit Messaging, you can configure and monitor a slave device’s parameters on the network. IMPORTANT When an explicit message is performed, by default no connection is made since it is an ‘unconnected’ message.
Using Explicit Messaging Performing Explicit Messaging Chapter 6 There are five basic events in the Explicit Messaging process. The details of each step will vary depending on the type of controller being used. See the documentation for your controller. IMPORTANT There must be a request message and a response message for all Explicit Messages, whether you are reading or writing data.

Chapter 6 Using Explicit Messaging ControlLogix Controller – Explanation of Request and Response Data for Read/Write Multiple Messaging The data structures in Table 9 and Table 10 use 32-bit words and can accommodate up to 32 parameters in a single message. In the Response Message, a parameter number with Bit 15 set indicates that the associated parameter value field contains an error code (parameter number in response data will be negative).
Using Explicit Messaging Chapter 6 When performing a Scattered Write to REAL data type parameters, the REAL parameter value will need to be COP to the DINT parameter value tag in the Request (Source Data) array.

Glossary The following terms and abbreviations are used throughout this manual. For definitions of terms not listed here, see the Allen-Bradley Industrial Automation Glossary, publication AG-7.1. Bridge A network device that can route messages from one network to another. A bridge also refers to a communication module in a ControlLogix controller that connects the controller to a network. See also scanner.
Glossary DriveExplorer Software A tool for monitoring and configuring Allen-Bradley products and network communication adapters. It can be used on computers running various Microsoft Windows operating systems. DriveExplorer software, version 6.xx or later, can be used to configure this adapter and connected drive. This software tool has been discontinued and is now available as freeware at http://www.ab.com/support/ abdrives/webupdate/software.html.
Glossary Idle Action An idle action determines how the option module and connected drive act when the controller is switched out of run mode. I/O Data I/O data, sometimes called ‘implicit messages’ or ‘input/output’, is time-critical data such as a Logic Command and Reference. The terms ‘input’ (To Net) and ‘output’ (From Net) are defined from the controller’s point of view. Output is produced by the controller and consumed by the option module.
Glossary Ping A message that is sent on the network to determine if a node exists. PowerFlex 750-Series (Architecture Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 750-Series drives are part of the PowerFlex 7-Class Class) Drives family of drives. Producer/Consumer Network On producer/consumer networks, packets are identified by content rather than an explicit destination. If a node needs the packet, it will accept the identifier and consume the packet.
Glossary Studio 5000 Environment The Studio 5000 Engineering and Design Environment combines engineering and design elements into a common environment. The first element in the Studio 5000 environment is the Logix Designer application. The Logix Designer application is the rebranding of RSLogix 5000 software and will continue to be the product to program Logix 5000 controllers for discrete, process, batch, motion, safety, and drive-based solutions.
