Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety precautions carefully.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive can 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 an adapter.

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, startup, configuration, and subsequent maintenance of the product using an adapter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The adapter 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 adapter. 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. DPI or SCANport host products must not be directly connected together using 1202 cables. Unpredictable behavior due to timing and other internal procedures can result if two or more devices are connected this way.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the adapter is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive can fault when you reset the adapter. Determine how your drive will respond before resetting an adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action

of the adapter and connected drive if I/O communication is disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, take precautions to verify 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 disconnected cable or a faulted controller).

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 7 - [RcvHrtBeat Time] lets you determine how long

it will take the adapter to detect network communication losses. By default, this parameter sets the time to 120 seconds. You can set it so that the duration is shorter, longer, or disabled. When set to disabled, this also disables Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action]. Therefore, a communication fault action is ignored. Take precautions to verify that the setting 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 disconnected cable).

Applying Power

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage, injury, or death exists. Unpredictable operation can occur if you fail to verify that parameter settings are compatible with your application. Verify that settings are compatible with your application before applying power to the drive.

Install the drive cover or close the drive door, and apply power to the drive. The adapter receives its power from the connected drive. When you apply power to the adapter for the first time, its topmost ‘PORT’ status indicator should be steady green or flashing green after an initialization. If it is red, there is a problem. See Chapter 5

Start-Up Status Indications

Status indicators for the drive and communication adapter can be viewed on the front of the drive (Figure 2.4 start-up status indications are shown in Table 2. A

Configuring and Verifying Key Drive Parameters

The PowerFlex 7-Class drive can be separately configured for the control and Reference functions in various combinations. For example, you could set the drive to have its control come from a peripheral or terminal block with the Reference coming from the network. Or you could set the drive to have its control come from the network with the Reference coming from another peripheral or terminal block. Or you could set the drive to have both its control and Reference come from the network.

The following steps in this section assume that the drive will receive the Logic Command and Reference from the network.

1. Use drive Parameter 090 - [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed

Reference to ‘22’ (DPI Port 5).

2. If hard-wired discrete digital inputs are not used to control the drive,

verify that unused digital input drive Parameters 361 - [Dig In1 Sel] and 362 - [Dig In2 Sel] are set to ‘0’ (Not Used).

20-COMM-L LonWorks Adapter User Manual

Publication 20COMM-UM008B-EN-P

Installing the Adapter 2-7

3. Verify that drive Parameter 213 - [Speed Ref Source] is reporting that

the source of the Reference to the drive is ‘22’ (DPI Port 5).

This ensures that any Reference commanded from the network can be monitored by using drive Parameter 002 - [Commanded Speed]. If a problem occurs, this verification step provides the diagnostic capability to determine whether the drive/adapter or the network is the cause.

TIP: For PowerFlex 750-Series drives, use drive Parameter 545 [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed Reference:

a. Set the Port field to ‘Port 0 - PowerFlex 75x’.

b. Set the Parameter field to point to the port in which the

20-COMM-L adapter/20-750-20COMM Communication Carrier Card are installed (for example, ‘876 - Port 6 Reference’).

The number ‘876’ in the Parameter filed of the example is the parameter in the drive that points to the port.

Setting the I/O Configuration

The I/O configuration determines the data that is sent to and from the drive. Logic Command/Status, Reference/Feedback, and Datalinks may be enabled or disabled. (Datalinks allow you to read/write directly to parameters in the drive using implicit I/O.) A ‘1’ enables the I/O and a ‘0’ disables the I/O.

1. Set the bits in Parameter 9 - [DPI I/O Cfg].

Bit 0 is the right-most bit. It is highlighted above and equals ‘1’.

2. If Logic Command/Reference is enabled, configure the parameters in

the drive to accept the Logic Command and Reference from the adapter.

For example, set Parameter 90 - [Speed Ref A Sel] in a PowerFlex 70 or 700 drive to ‘22’ (DPI Port 5) so that the drive uses the Reference from the adapter. Also, verify that the mask parameters (for example, Parameter 276 - [Logic Mask]) in the drive are configured to receive the desired logic from the adapter. See the documentation for your drive for details.

3. If you enabled one or more Datalinks, configure parameters in the drive

4. Reset the adapter (see Resetting the Adapter

the fault configuration parameters (Parameters 11 - [Flt Cfg Logic] through 20 - [Flt Cfg D2 In]).

Setting a Communication Fault Action

By default, when I/O communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the drive responds by faulting if it is using I/O from the network. You can configure a different response to the disrupted I/O communication by using Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action]. The drive will remain in its present state (for example, a running drive will continue to run) until the value in Parameter 7 - [RcvHrtBeat Time] has elapsed.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action] and Parameter 7 [RcvHrtBeat Time] let you determine the action of the adapter

and connected drive if I/O communication is disrupted. By default, Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action] faults the drive. You can set this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, take precautions to verify 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 disconnected cable).

Overview of LonWorks Functionality

A network variable is a data item that a particular device application program expects to get from other devices on a network (an ‘input network variable’) or expects to make available to other devices on a network (an ‘output network variable’). Data exchange on a LonWorks network is handled with Standard Network Variable Types (SNVTs), which represent different types of standard data (for example, temperature, pressure, and voltage).

When a program writes into one of its output network variables, the new value of the network variable is propagated across the network to all nodes with input network variable connected to that output network variable. A network variable can only be bound to another network variable of the same type.

Specific network variables are described in sections Network Variable

Inputs (NVIs), Network Variable Outputs (NVOs), and Network Configuration Inputs (NCIs).

Important: Any changes made with the LCD HIM to a parameter that is

also updated by the network will be overwritten when the next network update occurs.

Operating the Drive Using a LonMark Profile

A LonMark profile defines the functional profile for a node communicating with other nodes. The profile specifies which SNVTs (Standard Network Variable Types) and SCPTs (Standard Configuration Property Types) are used, and provides a semantic meaning about the information being communicated.

When a profile is implemented in a node, it is called a LonMark object. One node can have several objects implemented. The LonWorks adapter has two objects: a node object and a drive object. The node object is used to control the other objects in a node. See Figure 4.1

Figure 4.1 Node Object

The drive object is based on a specific LonMark functional profile (‘Variable Speed Motor Drive: 6010’), as shown in Figure 4.2

Node Operations

The following sections describe the basics of node operation.

WINK (What is a WINK?)

WINK is a network command that verifies communication with a node. The NET A status indicator flashes to indicate that a WINK was received. This LED flashes red according to the following sequence:

• 3 fast flashes

• OFF for 1 second

This sequence is repeated 10 times.

If the Node is Offline

If the node is brought offline it does not accept any NVI (Network Variable Inputs) settings or update NVOs (Network Variable Outputs). The adapter uses the setting in Parameter 8 - [Idle Flt Action] and issues a command to the drive. NCI (Network Configuration Input) variable updates are accepted but not forwarded to the drive until the node goes online and/or is reset.

If the Node is Online

The node accepts NCI and NVI settings and updates NVOs.

Network Variable Inputs (NVIs)

This section provides descriptions of the Network Variable Inputs.

Node Object Request

Va ri abl e: nviObjRequest

Format: SNVT_obj_request

Explanation:

This input enables control commands and updates from the network to specific objects in the node. The identification number for the node is 0 and for the drive object is 1. The request functionality is the same for both objects. The setting of nviObjRequest does not affect the ability of setting drive speed. The status of the node is reported in nvoObjStatus.

Valid Range for Object ID: 0 or 1

Valid Range for Request:

RQ_UPDATE_STATUS updates nvoObjStatus.

RQ_CLEAR_STATUS clears nvoObjStatus.

RQ_CLEAR_ALARM clears a fault in the drive.

RQ_REPORT_MASK reports supported requests in nvoObjStatus.

RQ_NORMAL and RQ_ENABLE are the normal requests when node function is normal.

All other requests are not supported, and any attempt to use them sets the invalid_request bit in nvoObjStatus.

Drive Speed Setpoint

Va ri abl e: nviDrvSpeedStpt

Format: SNVT_switch

Explanation:

This network variable input provides a speed reference setpoint. When nviDrvSpeedStpt.state is set to zero, the drive is stopped.

Valid Range:

State Value Requested Speed

0 n/a STOPPED

10% 0%

1 0.5…100.0% 0.5…100.0%

1 100.0% 100.0%

0xFF n/a AUTO (Default)

Default Value:

Default value is AUTO (state = 0xFF). This value is adapted at power up. This network variable input uses adapter Parameter 7 - [RcvHrtBeat Time] if this function is set up for use. The actual drive speed also depends on nviDrvSpeedScale.

Speed Setpoint Scaling

Va ri abl e: nviDrvSpeedScale

Format: SNVT_lev_percent

Explanation:

This network variable input provides scaling for nviDrvSpdStpt. For example, if nviDrvSpeedStpt value is 100% and nviDrvSpeedScale value is

-150%, then actual speed setpoint value is -150% (reverse direction at 1.5 times nominal speed).

Valid Range: -163.84…163.83%

Default Value: Defined by nciDrvSpeedScale.

Module Configuration

Va ri abl e: nviNV_config

Format: UNVT_DPI_CONFIG

Explanation:

This network variable input provides information on how parameters should be mapped to network variables. The NVI contains two fields:

• NV_index

• DPI_parameter

To check an already existing configuration, use the following procedures:

A. To check which DPI parameter a network variable is connected to, use

nviNV_config with the following data:

UNVT_DPI_CONF.NV_index = NV_index to check UNVT_DPI_CONF.DPI_parameter = 65535 (decimal)

B. To check which network variable a DPI parameter is connected to, use

nviNV_config with the following data:

UNVT_DPI_CONF.NV_index = 255 (decimal) UNVT_DPI_CONF.DPI_parameter = DPI parameter to check

The result of the requests above are placed in nvoFB_config. If there is no configuration available, 0 (zero) is returned.

Format: UNVT_DATALINK

Explanation:

These network variable inputs are used for generic parameter writes by way of Datalink Ins. To set up a Datalink, configure the adapter according to the drive manual. All data is sent in raw format; that is, no scaling is performed.

Example:

If PowerFlex 70/700 drive parameter 300 - [Data In A1] is set to ‘101’, it is pointing to drive parameter 101 - [Preset Speed 1]. Any value written to nviDatalinkA1 updates drive parameter 101 - [Preset Speed 1] with the value. A value of ‘100’ equates to 10.0 Hz (note that no scaling is performed).

Conditions Required for Operation

This section describes what conditions are required for performing some common actions and how the combination of SNVTs and SCPTs affects the operation of the drive.

Starting the Drive

The drive will RUN if nviDrvSpeedStpt.state is TRUE.

Stopping the Drive

The drive stops using the default stop mode if NviSpeedStpt.state is set to ‘0’ or if the node is brought offline or disabled, depending on the setting of adapter Parameter 8 - [Idle Flt Action].

Adjusting the Frequency Setting

The actual value written to the drive equals:

nciNmlFreq * (nviDrvSpeedStpt / 100) * (nviDrvSpeedScale / 100)

Explanation:

Nominal frequency is the base for scale and setpoint percent values. See

Network Variable Inputs (NVIs)

on page 4-5 for information about

nviSpeedScale nviSpeed Stpt.value nviSpeed Stpt.state Resulting Speed

100% 0% 1 0 Hz (RUN)

0% 100% 1 0 Hz (RUN)

150% 100% 0 (Normal) Stop

150% 100% 1 1.5 * 1.0 * nciNmlFreq (RUN)

-75% 100% 1 -0.75 * 1.00 * nciNmlFreq (RUN)

150% 50% 1 1.5 * 0.50 * nciNmlFreq (RUN)

Resetting Faults

If an error occurs, the drive faults. After removing the cause of the fault and setting nviObjRequest to RQ_CLEAR_ALARM, the drive can be reset.

nciMinOutTm versus nciSendHrtBt

The nciMinOutTm has priority over nciSendHrtBt. This means that heartbeats are not sent as often as specified in nciSendHrtBt if nciMinOutTm has a longer time set.

20-COMM-L LonWorks Adapter User Manual

Publication 20COMM-UM008B-EN-P

Configuring the LonWorks Network 4-19

Error Handling

If nciRcvHrtBt is larger than zero, and heartbeats are not received within the nciRcvHrtBt time, then communication with the LonWorks network is considered down. The adapter response to loss of communication depends on the setting of adapter Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action].

Resource Files

See Chapter with the adapter and network.

LonMark resource files define the components of the external interface for a LonWorks applications to interpret data produced by a device and to correctly format data sent to a device. They also help a system integrator or system operator to understand how to use a device and to control the LonMark objects on a device.

The LonWorks module uses three types of resource files:

• Type File (uses a ‘.TYP’ file extension) - Defines network variable,

configuration property, and enumerated types. LonMark standard network variable and configuration property types are defined in the STANDARD.TYP file.

• Functional Profile Template (uses a ‘.FPT’ file extension) - Defines

functional profiles that are used for describing LonMark objects. A functional profile specifies the mandatory and optional network variable and configuration property components of a LonMark object. LonMark standard functional profiles are defined in the STANDARD.FPT file.

5, Troubleshooting for more information on potential problems

device. These files allow installation tools and operator interface

• Format File (uses a ‘.FMT’ file extension) - Defines display and input

formats for network variable and configuration property types defined in a type file. Formats for the LonMark standard network variable and configuration property types are defined in the STANDARD.FMT file.

In addition to the resource files, the following file types are also used:

• Language File - Defines language-dependent strings. There is a separate

language file for each supported language. The supported language file determines the extension of a language file. Two language files are presently available for the LonMark standard type files; these are STANDARD.ENU for American English and STANDARD.ENG for British English.

• XIF File - Defines the external interface for a LonWorks device. This

file contains self-documentation information, number of address table entries, number of message tags, and the number, types, and directions of network variables.

The resource files and XIF file are shipped with the LonWorks module on digital media.

B-2 Adapter Parameters

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action] and Parameter 7 - [RcvHrtBeat Time] let you determine the action of

the adapter and connected drive if I/O communication is disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, take precautions to verify 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 disconnected cable).

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 7 [RcvHrtBeat Time] lets you determine how long it will take the adapter to detect a

loss of network communication. By default, this parameter sets the timeout to 120 seconds. You can set this parameter so that the duration is shorter, longer, or disabled. When set to disabled (0 seconds), this also disables adapter Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action]. Therefore, a communication fault action is ignored. Take precautions to verify 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 disconnected cable).

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 8 - [Idle Flt Action] lets you determine the action of the adapter and connected drive during

an offline/disable occurrence. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, take precautions to verify 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 disconnected cable).

A Adapter

B Binding

Glossary

Devices such as drives, controllers, and computers usually require a network communication adapter to provide a communication interface between them and a network such as LonWorks. An adapter reads data on the network and transmits it to the connected device. It also reads data in the device and transmits it to the network.

The 20-COMM-L LonWorks adapter connects PowerFlex 7-Class drives to a LonWorks network. Adapters are also called ‘cards’, ‘embedded communication options’, ‘gateways’, ‘modules’, or ‘peripherals’.

A process whereby a network variable input and a network variable output are connected together. Binding a network variable tells the device which other devices it should talk to and what information it should share. Only network variables of the same SNVT type can be bound together. For example, a temperature type could not be bound to a pressure type.

Bus Off

A condition that occurs when an abnormal rate of errors is detected in a device. The bus off device cannot receive or transmit messages on the network. This condition is often caused by corruption of the network data signals due to noise or data rate mismatch.

C CAN (Controller Area Network)

CAN is a serial bus protocol on which DPI is based.

Channel

The transmission media that connect devices on the network such as twisted pair 78 kbps or power line carrier. Also called segment.

Configuration Property

A data value used to configure the application program in a device.

D Data Rate

The speed at which data is transferred on the network. Each device on the network must be set for the same data rate.

Datalinks

A Datalink is a type of pointer used by PowerFlex 7-Class drives to transfer data to and from the controller. Datalinks enable specified parameters to be read or written to without using explicit messages. The drive determines the size of Datalinks.

DPI (Drive Peripheral Interface)

A second generation peripheral communication interface used by various Allen-Bradley drives and power products, such as PowerFlex 7-Class drives. It is a functional enhancement to SCANport.

DPI Peripheral

A device that provides an interface between DPI and a network or user. Peripheral devices are also referred to as ‘adapters’ or ‘modules’. The 20-COMM-L adapter, 1203-USB or 1203-SSS converter, and PowerFlex 7-Class HIMs (20-HIM-xxx) are examples of DPI peripherals.

DPI Product

A device that uses the DPI communication interface to communicate with one or more peripheral devices. For example, a motor drive such as a PowerFlex 7-Class drive is a DPI product. In this manual, a DPI product is also referred to as ‘drive’ or ‘host’.

DriveExplorer Software

F Fault Action

A fault action determines how the adapter and connected drive act when a communication fault (for example, a cable is disconnected) occurs.

Fault Configuration

When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the adapter and connected 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 adapter. 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 Datalink(s).

H HIM (Human Interface Module)

A device that can be used to configure and control a drive. PowerFlex 7-Class HIMs (20-HIM-xxx) can be used to configure PowerFlex 7-Class drives and their connected peripherals.

Hold Last

When communication is disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected), the adapter and connected 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 adapter, it continues to run at the same Reference.

Glossary G-3

I Interoperability

The ability of systems from different manufacturers and of different types to share information with each other without losing any of their independent functional capabilities and without requiring complex programming by the integrator.

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’ and ‘output’ are defined from the controller’s point of view. Output is produced by the controller and consumed by the adapter. Input is produced by the adapter and consumed by the controller.

L Logic Command/Logic Status

The Logic Command is used to control the PowerFlex 7-Class drive (for example, start, stop, and direction). It consists of one 16-bit word of output to the adapter from the network. The definitions of the bits in this word depend on the drive, and are shown in Appendix

The Logic Status is used to monitor the PowerFlex 7-Class drive (for example, operating state and motor direction). It consists of one 16-bit word of input from the adapter to the network. The definitions of the bits in this word depend on the drive, and are shown in Appendix
