Write Multiple Parameters
ControlLogix Controller Example Ladder Logic Program to Write Multiple
Parameters Using RSLogix 5000 Software, Any Version
A Scattered Write message is used to write to multiple parameters. This
write message example writes the following values to these five parameters
in a PowerFlex 7-Class drive.
See DPI Parameter Object
on page C-13 (Class Code 0x93) for parameter
numbering.
Important: See Table 6.A on page 6-2
for limitations of PowerFlex 7-Class
and PowerFlex 750-Series drives when using DPI Parameter
Class code 0x93 for explicit messaging.

Important: If the explicit message scattered write must be written
continuously, then use a separate explicit message single write
for each parameter using DPI Parameter Object Class code
0x93 and attribute A (10 decimal; see page 6-11
). Attribute A
writes to RAM—not NVS (EEPROM) memory. This example
scattered write message using attribute 0 writes to NVS. Over
time, continuous writes will exceed the EEPROM life cycle and
cause the drive to malfunction.
PowerFlex 7-Class Drive Parameter Write Value
141 - [Accel Time 2] 11.1 Sec.
143 - [Decel Time 2] 22.2 Sec.
105 - [Preset Speed 5] 33.3 Hz.
106 - [Preset Speed 6] 44.4 Hz.
107 - [Preset Speed 7] 55.5 Hz.

TIP: The MOV (Move) and COP (Copy) instructions are required to
convert the data into the necessary data types, and to align the data into a
usable display format.
