Exercise 5: PowerFlex 525 Drive Add-On Profile with RS Logix 5000 Software.
This section will provide a preview of the PowerFlex 525 Drive Add-On Profile as well as the PowerFlex 525 Drives and Motion
Accelerator Toolkit Add-On Instructions and Faceplates for the PowerFlex 525.
Providing one software tool to configure the entire Logix / drive system.
Configuring both controller and drive network connections from a single location - eliminating I/O mismatch errors.
Allowing the dynamic selection of drive parameters transmitted as network I/O communicating only what is
needed for the application.
Auto-generating descriptive tag names - eliminating the need to enter individual tag descriptions.
Auto-generating respective tag data types - eliminating the need to convert from one data type to another.
Saving all drive configurations in the project file and in the Logix controller providing a single source of drive
configuration data.
Providing Copy & Paste capability when creating additional duplicate drives also duplicates the drive
configuration settings so all the new drive needs is a different node address.
Allowing use of the same easy-to-use drive configuration Wizards used in Connected Components Workbench,
DriveTools SP, and DriveExplorer.
Systems using the Integrated Drive Profiles in RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 Logix Designer are also easier to maintain:
Drive diagnostic; fault, alarm and event information is integral to RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 Logix Designer.
Drive Tech Support Wizard can be run from RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 Logix Designer to collect all pertinent
information about a drive, its peripherals, various software components, and PC operating system.
Drives can be flash updated from RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 Logix Designer.
Having a single repository of drive configuration data (in project file) speeds drive replacement.
Integrated Drive Profiles are "Add-On" Profiles, meaning new profiles can be introduced at any time (not tied to a specific
RSLogix 5000 / Studio 5000 Logix Designer release) and are utilized by the software.

The PowerFlex 525 Add-On Profile provides the ability to configure Up to 4 words of Input Data and 4 words of
Output Data can be defined for the embedded Ethernet connection. By default, drive status and control
information will be communicated. The PowerFlex 525 allows datalinks to be configured to drive parameters.
Status Information
The DriveStatus word contains the drive status bit information, such as Ready, Fault, and At Reference.
The OutputFreq word contains the speed feedback information, which shows the actual operating frequency
(Hz) of the drive.
Control Information
The LogicCommand word contains the drive command bit information, such as Stop, Start, Forward, Reverse,
and Clear Faults.
The FreqCommand word contains the commanded reference value for the drive to run.
Datalinks
Datalinks are pointers to drive and/or other port parameters. Instead of offering fixed I/O assemblies where whatyou-see-is-what-you-get, our drive I/O assembly is dynamic and gives the programmer the ability to pick & choose
the desired parameters to communicate as network I/O.

If you have time and want to learn about ADC or Automatic Device Configuration. See next Section
Exercise 6: Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) with the PowerFlex 525 AC drive
About Automatic Device Configuration (ADC)
Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) is an RSLogix 5000 (version 20) and Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) feature that
supports the automatic download of configuration data upon the Logix controller establishing an EtherNet/IP network connection
to a PowerFlex 525 drive and its associated peripherals.
IMPORTANT:
ADC is NOT available for DSI peripherals.
ADC is NOT available in Multi-drive mode.
ADC is only available when the drive is connected using the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter or future
EtherNet/IP DLR adapter to a compatible controller.
An RSLogix 5000 (version 20) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater) project (.ACD file) contains the configuration settings for
any PowerFlex drives in the project. When the project is downloaded to the Logix controller, these settings are also transferred
and reside in the controllers memory. Prior to ADC in RSLogix 5000 (version 20) or Logix Designer (version 21 or greater),
downloading PowerFlex 525 configuration data was a manual process where the user would open the Drive tab in the respective
drive Add-On Profile (AOP) in the application and click on the Download icon. ADC now automates the process and saves the
user time. It is particularly beneficial in a drive replacement situation when a production line is down.
NOTE:
At this point in time, Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) is only available for the following PowerFlex
drives:
PowerFlex 525 via Embedded Ethernet (EENET) and Dual Port Ethernet (E2P)
PowerFlex 755 (Version 4.001) via Embedded Ethernet (EENET) and Dual Port Ethernet (ENETR)
PowerFlex 753 (version 7.001) via Dual Port Ethernet (ENETR)
ADC can also work in tandem with Firmware Supervisor. If Firmware Supervisor is set up and enabled for a drive (Exact Match
keying must be used), and if the respective ControlFLASH firmware kit is installed on the computer, the drive/peripheral will be
automatically flashed (if necessary) prior to any ADC operation.
IMPORTANT:
Logix owns the configuration of the drive. ADC will be triggered any time the Logix controller detects a
configuration signature mismatch when establishing an EtherNet/IP network I/O connection.
The use of other configuration tools, such as a HIM or Connected Components Workbench software should
be minimized and restricted to monitor-only operation. Any configuration changes made by these tools will
cause a configuration signature mismatch the next time the Logix controller connects to the device and ADC
will write over any changes made by the other tool(s). Any drive configuration changes should be made with
the drive Add-On Profile.
For more information in regards to the PowerFlex 525 and Automatic Device Configuration (ADC), refer to the PowerFlex 525
Embedded EtherNet/IP Adapter User Manual.

The drive AOP requires user action to enable ADC. This helps ensure that the user understands ADC operation prior
to turning it on. The drive AOPs also have an ADC icon on the Drive tab that shows if ADC is enabled (green arrow) or
disabled (gray arrow) for the respective drive.

11. Automatic Device Configuration (ADC) will cause the transition to run to be longer. Click the OK
button to confirm / acknowledge the following window.
NOTE: It will take about one (1) minute for the PowerFlex 525 drive to be configured.
14. Once the ADC process has completed, the drives connection status will go from Configuring to Running
ADC will automatically reset (power cycle) the drive as part of the configuration process. This is done
because some parameters require a reset before they take effect. If a drive is being replaced with an out-ofthe-box drive, you will typically see one or more resets during the ADC process.
You have completed the Drive Programming with the PowerFlex 525 AC Drives Lab.
