4-4 Controlling PowerFlex 4 and 40 Drives with Allen-Bradley Controllers
PowerFlex 4 and 40 control and status information, and parameters are
addressed using N: file addressing.
Logic Command/Reference
Logic Status/Feedback/Additional Monitor Data
The Logic Command and Logic Status bit definitions are described in
Appendix I.
Parameters
PowerFlex 4 and 40 parameters are addressed using Integer File N150:x,
where “x” equals the actual parameter number in the drive. For example:
N150:39 = Parameter 39 - [Accel Time 1]
Example ladder logic programs are provided for each type of controller
platform. Refer to the appropriate appendix:
