Safety Precautions
Please read the following safety precautions carefully.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive may
contain high voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove all power
from the PowerFlex drive, and then verify power has been discharged
before installing or removing the option module.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Only personnel
familiar with drive and power products and the associated machinery
should plan or implement the installation, start up, configuration, and
subsequent maintenance of the drive using the option module. Failure to
comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The option module
contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive parts that can be damaged
if you do not follow ESD control procedures. Static control precautions are
required when handling the option module. If you are unfamiliar with static
control procedures, see Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage,
publication 8000-4.5.2
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the option
module is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may fault when
you reset the option module. Determine how your drive will respond before
resetting the module.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Host
Parameters 33 - [Comm Flt Action] and 34 - [Idle Flt Action] let you
determine the action of the option module and connected drive if I/O
communication is disrupted, the controller is idle, or Acyclic messaging for
drive control is disrupted. By default, these parameters fault the drive. You
can set these parameters so that the drive continues to run, however,
precautions should be taken to verify that the settings of these parameters
do not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning
the drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various situations
(for example, a disconnected cable or a controller in idle state).
.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. When a system is
configured for the first time, there may be unintended or incorrect machine
motion. Disconnect the motor from the machine or process during initial
system testing.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. The examples in
this publication are intended solely for purposes of example. There are
many variables and requirements with any application. Rockwell
Automation does not assume responsibility or liability (to include
intellectual property liability) for actual use of the examples shown in this
publication.

Setting the IP Address
Selection Jumper
The IP Address Selection Jumper (Figure 1) determines the source of the IP
address for the option module. When the jumper is placed on Pins 2 and 3, either
the default network address is used or the network address may be configured
with option module parameters.
When the jumper is in this position, the setting for Device Parameter 18 - [DHCP] does not have any effect.
The default network address is:
• IP Address 192.168.0.1
• Subnet Mask 255.255.255.0
• Gateway Address 192.168.0.1
If the jumper is on Pins 1 and 2—or there is no jumper—the network address is
configured by DCP/DHCP. If Device Parameter 18 [DHCP] is set to ‘0’
(Disabled), the network address is configured using a Profinet controller with
DCP capability. If Device Parameter 18 [DHCP] is set to ‘1’ (Enabled), the
network address is configured from a DHCP server.

Chapter 2 Installing the Option Module
Configuring and Verifying Key Drive Parameters
The PowerFlex 750-Series drive can be separately configured for the control and
Reference functions in various combinations. For example, you could set the
drive to receive control commands from a peripheral or terminal block, with the
Reference coming from the network. You could also set the drive to receive its
control from the network with the Reference coming from another peripheral or
terminal block. Or you could set the drive to receive both its control and
Reference from the network.
The following steps in this section assume that the drive will receive the Logic
Command and Reference from the network.
1. Verify that drive Parameter 301 - [Access Level] is set to ‘1’ (Advanced) or
‘2’ (Expert) to access the required parameters in this procedure.
2. Use drive Parameter 545 - [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed
Reference:
a. Set the Port field to ‘0’ as shown below.
b. Set the Parameter field to point to the port (slot) in which the option
module is installed (for example, Port 4 Reference).
The number ‘874’ in the Parameter field of the example dialog box
above is the parameter in the drive that identifies the port.
3. Verify that drive Parameter 930 - [Speed Ref Source] is reporting that the
source of the Reference to the drive (Port 0) is the port in which the option
module is installed (for example, Port 4 Reference).
24Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM006A-EN-P - January 2013
Installing the Option Module Chapter 2
This ensures that any Reference commanded from the network can be
monitored by using drive Parameter 002 - [Commanded SpdRef ]. If a
problem occurs, this verification step provides the diagnostic capability to
determine whether the drive/option module or the network is the cause.
4. If hard-wired discrete digital inputs are not used to control the drive, verify
that all unused digital input drive parameters are set to ‘0’ (Not Used).

Enable Datalinks To Write Data
The controller output image (controller outputs-to-drive) can have 0 to 16
additional 32-bit parameters (Datalinks). They are configured using Host Parameters 01 - [DL From Net 01] through 16 - [DL From Net 16]. The data
type of the Datalink can be either a 32-bit REAL (floating point) or a 32 bit
integer. The number of Datalinks actively used in the controller is determined by
the number of Datalinks installed in the hardware configuration. See the
controller example sections in Chapter
hardware configuration.
4 for more information on setting the
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.
When using a PLC, configure the Datalink parameters now as described in this
section.
HostParameters 01 - [DL From Net 01] through 16 - [DL From Net 16]
control which parameters in the drive, option module, or any other connected
peripheral receive the values from the network. You can use the PowerFlex 20HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S HIM, or another drive configuration tool such as
Connected Components Workbench, DriveExplorer, or DriveExecutive software
to select the drive or peripheral by port number and the parameter by name. As an
alternate method, the parameter value can be set manually by number using this
formula:
From Net Parameter Value = (10000 * port number) + (Destination Parameter Number)
For example, suppose you want to use Host Parameter 01 - [DL From Net 01] to
write to Parameter 03 of an optional encoder module plugged into drive Port 5.
Using the formula, the value for Host Parameter 01 - [DL From Net 01] would
be (10000 * 5) + (3) = 50003.
Follow these steps to enable Datalinks to write data.
1. Set the values of only the required number of contiguous controller-todrive Datalinks needed to write data to the drive and that are to be
included in the network I/O connection.
2. Reset the option module; see Resetting the Option Module
3. Since the Logic Command and Reference is always used in the option
module, configure the parameters in the drive to accept the Logic
Command and Reference from the option module.
When using the controller for speed reference via the option module, set
two fields in drive Parameter 545 - [Speed Ref A Sel].
a. Set the Port field for the drive (for example, 0 - PowerFlex 755).
b. Set the Parameter field to point to the port in which the option module
is installed (for this example, Port 4 Reference).
Also, verify that the mask parameters in the drive (for example,
Parameter 324 - [Logic Mask]) are configured to receive the desired
logic from the option module. See the drive documentation for details.
on page 36.
After the above steps are complete, the option module is ready to receive input data
and transfer status data to the Profinet Scanner (controller). Next, configure the
controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the option module. See Chapter
Configuring the Profinet Master
.

Enable Datalinks To Read Data
The controller input image (drive-to-controller inputs) can have 0 to 16
additional 32-bit parameters (Datalinks). They are configured using Host Parameters 17 - [DL To Net 01] through 32 - [DL To Net 16]. The number of
Datalinks actively used in the controller is determined by the number of
Datalinks installed in the hardware configuration. See the controller example
sections in Chapter
configuration.
When using a PLC, configure the Datalink parameters now as described in this
section.
4 for more information on setting the hardware
Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive numerical order,
starting with the first parameter. For example, use Host Parameters 17,
18, 19, 20, and 21 to configure five Datalinks to read data. Otherwise, the
network I/O connection will be larger than necessary, which needlessly
increases controller response time and memory usage.
HostParameters 17 - [DL To Net 01] through 32 - [DL To Net 16] configure
which parameters in the drive, option module, or any other connected peripheral
send the values to the network. You can use the PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6 or 20HIM-C6S HIM, or another drive configuration tool such as Connected
Components Workbench, DriveExplorer, or DriveExecutive software to select
the drive or peripheral by port number and the parameter by name. As an
alternate method, the parameter value can be set manually by number using this
formula:
To Net Parameter Value = (10000 * Port Number) + (Origination Parameter Number)
For example, suppose you want to use Host Parameter 17 - [DL To Net 01] to
read Parameter 2 of an optional I/O module plugged into drive Port 6. Using the
formula, the value for Host Parameter 17 - [DL To Net 01] would be (10000 * 6)
+ (2) = 60002.
Follow these steps to enable Datalinks to read data.
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 36.
The option module is configured to send output data to the scanner (controller).
You must now configure the controller to recognize and transmit I/O to the
option module. See Chapter

Setting a Fault Action
By default, when communication is disrupted (for example, the network cable is
disconnected) or the scanner is idle, the drive responds by faulting if it is using
I/O from the network. You can configure a different response to these faults:
• Disrupted I/O communication by using Host Parameter 33 - [Comm Flt
Action].
• An idle controller by using Host Parameter 34 - [Idle Flt Action].
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Host
Parameters 33 - [Comm Flt Action] and 34 - [Idle Flt Action] let you
determine the action of the option module and connected drive if
communication is disrupted or the scanner is idle. By default, these
parameters fault the drive. You may configure these parameters so that the
drive continues to run, however, precautions should be taken to verify that
the settings of these parameters do not create a risk of injury or equipment
damage. When commissioning the drive, verify that your system responds
correctly to various situations (for example, a disconnected network cable
or controller in idle state).
Changing the Fault Action
Set the values of Host Parameters 33 - [Comm Flt Action] and 34 - [Idle Flt
Action], to an action that meets your application requirements.

Resetting the Option
Module
Changes to the jumper setting and some option module parameters require you
to reset the option module before the new settings take effect. You can reset the
option module by power cycling the drive or by using DeviceParameter 05 - [Reset Module].
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the option
module is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may fault when
you reset the option module. Determine how your drive will respond before
resetting the option module.
Set DeviceParameter 05 - [Reset Module] to ‘1’ (Reset Module).
When you enter ‘1’ (Reset Module), the option module will be immediately reset.
An alternate method to reset the module is by power cycling the drive. When you
enter ‘2’ (Set Defaults), the option module will set all of its Device and Host
parameters to their factory default values. (This is the same as pressing the ALL
soft key when using the MEMORY folder method described in Restoring Option
Module Parameters to Factory Defaults on page 37.)
36Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM006A-EN-P - January 2013
When performing a Set Defaults, the drive may detect a conflict and then
not allow this function to occur. If this happens, first resolve the conflict
and then repeat a Set Defaults action. Common reasons for a conflict
include a drive running or a master in Run mode.
After performing a Set Defaults, you must enter ‘1’ (Reset Module) or
power cycle the drive so that the new values take effect. Thereafter, this
parameter will be restored to ‘0’ (Ready).
If your application allows, you can also reset the option module by

Profinet I/O messaging is used to transfer the data which controls the PowerFlex
drive and sets its Reference. I/O messaging can also be used to transfer data to and
from Datalinks which are mapped to parameters in the PowerFlex 750-Series
drive.
The option module includes the Logic Command, Logic Status, Reference, and
Feedback (all as 32-bit words) in the controller's I/O image. This basic I/O must
always be configured by the Profinet configuration tool to the option module,
enabling the ability to control and monitor the PowerFlex 750-Series drive.
Additional I/O if needed, can be configured using up to 16 Datalinks to write
data and/or up to 16 Datalinks to read data. When using any combination of
these Datalinks, add one 32-bit word for each Datalink to the basic I/O Input
Size and/or Output Size.

Scanner 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. The I/O image will vary based
on how many of the drive’s 32-bit Datalinks (Host DL From Net 01-16 and Host DL To Net 01-16) are used.
The I/O image can be configured based upon the number of Datalinks required
by the user. Ta b l e 2

Using Logic Command/
Status
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.
• Logic Command word is always the first 32-bit word in the output image.
• Logic Status word is always the first 32-bit word in the input image.

Using Reference/Feedback
The Reference is a 32-bit REAL (floating point) word of control data produced
by the controller and consumed by the option module. The Feedback is a 32-bit
REAL (floating point) word of status data produced by the option module and
consumed by the controller.
• Reference word is always the second 32-bit word in the output image.
• Feedback word is always the second 32-bit word in the input image.
The Reference and Feedback 32-bit REAL values represent drive speed. The
scaling for the speed Reference and Feedback are dependent on drive Parameter
300 - [Speed Units]. For example, if Parameter 300 is set to Hz, a 32-bit REAL
Reference value of ‘30.0’ would equal a Reference of 30.0 Hz. If Parameter 300 is
set to RPM, a 32-bit REAL Reference value of ‘1020.5’ would equal a Reference
of 1020.5 RPM. Note that the commanded maximum speed can never exceed the
value of drive Parameter 520 - [Max Fwd Speed]. Ta b l e 3

• Parameter 300 - [Speed Units] set to Hz.
• Parameter 37 - [Maximum Freq] set to 130 Hz.
• Parameter 520 - [Max Fwd Speed] set to 60 Hz.
When Parameter 300 - [Speed Units] is set to RPM, the other parameters are also
in RPM.

Chapter 5 Using the I/O
IMPORTANT
Using Datalinks
A Datalink is a mechanism used by PowerFlex drives to transfer data to and from
the controller. Datalinks allow a drive parameter value to be read or written to
without using a Profinet Acyclic Messaging Service. When enabled, each
Datalink occupies one 32-bit word in a controller.
The following rules apply when using PowerFlex 750-Series drive Datalinks:
• The target of a Datalink can be any Host parameter, including those of a
peripheral. For example, drive parameter 535 - [Accel Time 1] can be the
target of any or all option modules installed in the drive.
• The data passed through the Datalink mechanism is determined by the
settings of Host Parameters 01…16 - [DL From Net 01-16] and Host Parameters 17…32 - [DL To Net 01-16].
A reset is always required after configuring Datalinks so that the
changes take effect.
• When an I/O connection that includes Datalinks is active, those Datalinks
that are being used are locked and cannot be changed until that I/O
connection becomes idle or inactive.
• When you use a Datalink to change a value, the value is not written to the
Nonvolatile Storage (NVS) memory. The value is stored in volatile
memory and lost when the drive loses power. Thus, use Datalinks when
you need to change a value of a parameter frequently.
Datalinks for PowerFlex 750-Series drive peripherals (the embedded EtherNet/
IP adapter on PowerFlex 755 drives only, and option modules such as an encoder
or a communication module) are locked when the peripheral has an I/O
connection with a controller. When a controller has an I/O connection to the
drive, the drive does not allow a reset to defaults, configuration download or
anything else that could change the makeup of the I/O connection in a running
system. The I/O connection with the controller must first be disabled to allow
changes to the respective Datalinks.
Depending on the controller being used, the I/O connection can be disabled by:
• Putting the controller in Program mode
• Placing the scanner in idle mode
• Disconnecting the drive from the network
DeviceLogix Datalinks are also locked while the DeviceLogix program is
running. The DeviceLogix program must first be disabled to allow changes to the
Datalinks. Set DeviceLogix parameter 53 - [DLX Operation] to ‘DisableLogic’
to disable the logic (the parameter value will then change to ‘LogicDisabld’).

About Acyclic Messaging
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. If Acyclic Messages are
programmed to write parameter data to Nonvolatile Storage (NVS)
frequently, the NVS will quickly exceed its life cycle and cause the drive to
malfunction. Do not create a program that frequently uses Acyclic
Messages to write parameter data to NVS. Datalinks do not write to NVS
and should be used for frequently changed parameters.
Acyclic messaging is used to transfer data that does not require continuous
updates to the PowerFlex 750-Series drive through the option module. Profinet
acyclic messaging is used to configure and monitor the drive parameters on a
Profinet network as well as peripheral Host and Device parameters. For a full list
of drive parameters, see the PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Programming

Viewing and Clearing
Events
The option module has an event queue to record significant events that occur in
the operation of the module. When such an event occurs, an entry consisting of
the event's numeric code and a timestamp is put into the event queue. You can
view the event queue with any of these drive configuration tools:
• PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S HIM
• Connected Components Workbench software, version 1.02 or later
• DriveExplorer software, version 6.01 or later
• DriveExecutive software, version 5.01 or later
For details on viewing and clearing events with the HIM, see the PowerFlex 20HIM-A6/-C6S HIM (Human Interface Module) User Manual, publication
20HIM-UM001
The event queue can contain up to 32 entries, which are stored in an EEPROM
chip—making the event queue nonvolatile. Eventually the event queue will
become full, since its contents are retained through option module power cycles
and resets. At that point, a new entry replaces the oldest entry. Only an event
queue clear operation or the corruption of the EEPROM group containing the
event queue will clear the event queue contents. In the latter case, the option
module will not generate a fault to indicate that the event queue was corrupted.
.

Resetting the option module to defaults has no effect on the event queue, other
than to log a Code 58 ‘Module Defaulted’ event.
Many events in the event queue occur under normal operation. If you encounter
unexpected communications problems, the events may help you or Allen-Bradley

number). For example, suppose you want to use
HostParameter 17 - [DL To Net 01] to read
Parameter 02 of an optional I/O module plugged
into drive Port 6. The value for Host Parameter 17
- [DL To Net 01] would be 60002 [(10000 * 6) + 2].
33[Comm Flt Action]
Sets the action that the option module and drive
will take if the option module detects that I/O
communication has been disrupted. This setting is
effective only if I/O that controls the drive is
transmitted through the option module. When
communication is re-established, the drive will
automatically receive commands over the network
again.

Option Module and connected drive when the controller is idle. By
default, this parameter faults the drive. You may configure this
parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, precautions
should be taken to ensure that the setting of this parameter does not
create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the
drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various situations (for
example, a controller in idle state).

Fault Action A fault action determines how the option module and connected drive act when
a communication fault (for example, a disconnected cable) occurs or when the
controller is switched out of run mode. The former uses a communication fault
action, and the latter uses an idle fault action.
.
Fault Configuration When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
option module and PowerFlex drive can respond with a user-defined fault
configuration. The user sets the data that is sent to the drive using specific fault
configuration parameters in the option module. When a fault action parameter is
set to use the fault configuration data and a fault occurs, the data from these
parameters is sent as the Logic Command, Reference, and/or Datalinks.
GSDML File The GSDML (Generic Station Description Markup Language) file is an XML

example, xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx). Each digit has a value between 0 and 255 (0x00 and
0xFF). This address is assigned in the hardware and cannot be changed. It is
required to identify the device if you are using a DCP-DHCP server.

HIM (Human Interface Module) A device that can be used to configure and control a drive. The Power Flex 20-
HIM-A6 or 20-HIM-C6S HIM can be used to configure Power Flex 750-Series
drives and their connected peripherals.
Hold Last When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
option module and PowerFlex drive can respond by holding last. Hold last results
in the drive receiving the last data received via the network connection before the
disruption. If the drive was running and using the Reference from the option
module, it will continue to run at the same Reference.
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. Input is
produced by the option module and consumed by the controller.
IP Address A unique IP address identifies each node on the Profinet network. An IP address
consists of 32 bits that are divided into four segments of one byte each. It appears
as four decimal integers separated by periods (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx). Each ‘xxx’ can
have a decimal value from 0 to 255. For example, an IP address could be
192.168.0.1.
An IP address has two parts: a network ID and a host ID. The class of network
determines the format of the address.
017152331
Class A 0 Network IDHost ID
017152331
Class B 1 0 Network IDHost ID
0 1 27152331
Class C 1 1 0 Network IDHost ID
The number of devices on your Profinet network will vary depending on the
number of bytes that are used for the network address. In many cases you are
given a network with a Class C address, in which the first three bytes contain the
network address (subnet mask = 255.255.255.0). This leaves 8 bits or 256
addresses on your network. Because two addresses are reserved for special uses (0
is an address for the network usually used by the router, and 255 is an address for
broadcast messages to all network devices), you have 254 addresses to use on a
Class C address block.
Rockwell Automation Publication 750COM-UM006A-EN-P - January 201387
Glossary
To ensure that each device on the Profinet network has a unique address, contact
your network administrator or Profinet Service Provider for unique fixed IP
addresses. You can then set the unique IP address for the option module by using
a DHCP server or by manually configuring parameters in the option module.
The option module reads the values of these parameters only at powerup.
Logic Command/Logic Status The Logic Command is used to control the PowerFlex 750-Series drive (for
example, start, stop, and direction). It consists of one 32-bit word of output to the
option module from the network. The definitions of the bits in this word are
shown in Appendix
The Logic Status is used to monitor the PowerFlex 750-Series drive (for example,
operating state and motor direction). It consists of one 32-bit word of input from

Profinet Network PROFINET is the open industrial Ethernet standard of PROFIBUS
International (PI) for automation. PROFINET uses TCP/IP and IT standards,
and is, in effect, real-time Ethernet. The Profinet network is designed for
industrial communications, where both I/O and acyclic messages can be
transmitted over the network to communicate with industrial automation
equipment. The number of devices that a Profinet network can support depends
on the class of network it is installed in. For example, a network with a Class C IP
address can have 254 nodes.
General information about Profinet standards and the Profinet specification are
maintained by PROFIBUS & PROFINET International (PI). See http://
www.profinet.com/.
Reference/Feedback The Reference is used to send a setpoint (for example, speed, frequency, and
torque) to the drive. It consists of one 32-bit word of output to the option
module from the network.
Feedback is used to monitor the speed of the drive. It consists of one 32-bit word
of input from the option module to the network.

option modules connected to a network. See also Controller
such as PowerFlex 750-Series drives.
They are on the option module and can be viewed when the drive is powered and
its cover is removed.
option module and drive can respond with a stop action. A stop action results in
the drive receiving zero as values for Logic Command, Reference, and Datalink
data. If the drive was running and using the Reference from the option module, it
will stay running but at zero Reference.
.
Subnet Mask An extension to the IP addressing scheme that lets you use a single network ID
for multiple physical networks. A bit mask identifies the part of the address that
specifies the network and the part of the address that specifies the unique node
on the network. A ‘1’ in the subnet mask indicates the bit is used to specify the
network. A ‘0’ in the subnet mask indicates that the bit is used to specify the
node.
For example, a subnet mask on a network may appear as follows: 11111111
11111111 11111111 11000000 (255.255.255.192). This mask indicates that 26
bits are used to identify the network and 6 bits are used to identify devices on
each network. Instead of a single physical Class C network with 254 devices, this
subnet mask divides it into four networks with up to 62 devices each.

Upd ate The process of updating firmware in a device. The option module can be flash
updated using various Allen-Bradley software tools. See Updating the Option
Module Firmware on page 38.
Zero Data When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the
option module and drive can respond with zero data. Zero data results in the
drive receiving zero as values for Logic Command, Reference, and Datalink data.
If the drive was running and using the Reference from the option module, it will
stay running but at zero Reference.
