Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety precautions carefully

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 product using a PROFIBUS adapter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.

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 removed before installing or removing a PROFIBUS adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The PROFIBUS adapter contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) 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, refer to Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage, Publication 8000-4.5.2.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the PROFIBUS adapter is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive

may fault when you reset the adapter. Determine how your drive will respond before resetting an adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameters 9 - [Comm Flt Action] and 10 - [Idle Flt Action] let you

determine the action of the adapter and connected PowerFlex drive if communications are disrupted. By default, these parameters fault the PowerFlex drive. You can set these parameters so that the PowerFlex drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the settings of these parameters do not create a hazard of injury or equipment damage.

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.

By default, when communications are disrupted (for example, a cable is disconnected) or the master is idle, the drive responds by faulting if it is using I/O from the network. You can configure a different response to communication disruptions using Parameter 9 - [Comm Flt Action] and a different response to an idle scanner using Parameter 10 - [Idle

Flt Action].

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameters 9 - [Comm Flt Action] and 10 - [Idle Flt Action] let you

determine the action of the adapter and connected drive if communications are disrupted or the scanner is idle. By default, these parameters fault the drive. You can set these parameters so that the drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the settings of these parameters do not create a risk of injury or equipment damage.

To change the fault action

• Set the values of Parameters 9 - [Comm Flt Action] and 10 - [Idle Flt Action] to the desired responses:

Installing the 20-COMM-P GSD file in the software tool library

GSD files are used by software tools to configure the network, i.e. to map and define the I/O in a Profibus scanner. A GSD file is required for each type of adapter on the network. For example: The 20-COMM-P GSD file is “A_B_0572.gsd” and a copy of the file is provided on a floppy disk with each 20-COMM-P. The file can also be downloaded from the Internet by going to: www.ab.com/drives/powerflex.

Follow the steps outlined below only when a new GSD file needs to be added to the SST PROFIBUS Configuration Software Tool. Typically, this is only done once, after the software tool is initially installed or if configuring a 20-COMM-P on the network for the very first time with this software tool.

1. The software tool comes with standard data files as shown in Figure

4.3. Additional data files, such as the 20-COMM-P GSD file, will

need to be added to configure the 20-COMM-P in the scanner.

Figure 4.3 Standard Data Files

2. Click on the “New Device” icon to add GSD files to the

software library tool.

3. An “Add PROFIBUS devices” Applet window will appear (Figure

4.4). Prompts for the location of the PROFIBUS data files to be

added to the library will follow.

Configuring the SST-PFB-SLC Profibus Scanner

The following steps are performed to configure the SST-PFB-SLC scanner using the SST PROFIBUS Configuration Software Tool. In our example, the PROFIBUS network will consist of a SLC master and two PowerFlex 70 drives. The ladder examples in the manual will utilize the following configuration:

• Logic Command / Status and Reference / Feedback enabled

• Datalink A enabled

• Datalink B enabled

• Datalink C enabled

• Datalink D enabled

• Parameter Access enabled (used to perform explicit messaging)

The SLC processor must be in Program mode to configure the scanner.

About I/O Messaging

I/O messaging is used to transfer the data which controls the PowerFlex drive and sets its Reference. I/O can also be used to transfer data to and from Datalinks in PowerFlex drives.

The PROFIBUS adapter provides options for configuring and using I/O, including the following:

• The size of I/O can be configured by enabling or disabling the Logic Command/Reference and Datalinks.

Chapter Profibus Scanner discuss how to configure the adapter and scanner on

the network for these options. The Glossary defines the different options. This chapter discusses how to use I/O after you have configured the adapter and scanner.

Understanding the I/O Image

The terms input and output are defined from scanner’s point of view. Therefore, Outputs are data that is output from the scanner and consumed by the PROFIBUS adapter. Inputs are status data that is produced by the adapter and consumed as input by the scanner. The I/O image table will vary based on the following:

• Size (either 16-bit or 32-bit) of the Reference/Feedback word and Datalink words used by the drive.

• Configuration of Parameter 11 - [DPI I/O Config] in the adapter. If not all I/O is enabled, the image table is truncated. The image table always uses consecutive words starting at word 0.

Using Logic Command/Status

When enabled, the Logic Command/Status word is always word 0 in the I/O image. The Logic Command is a 16-bit word of control produced by the scanner and consumed by the adapter. The Logic Status is a 16-bit word of status produced by the adapter and consumed by the scanner.

This manual contains the bit definitions for compatible products available at the time of publication in Appendix

Status Words. For other products, refer to their documentation.

Using Reference/Feedback

When enabled, Reference/Feedback always begins at word 1 in the I/O image. The Reference (16 bits or 32 bits) is produced by the controller and consumed by the adapter. The Feedback (16 bits or 32 bits) is produced by the adapter and consumed by the controller. The size of the Reference/Feedback is determined by the drive and displayed in Parameter 06 - [Ref/Fdbk Size] in the adapter.

Using Datalinks

A Datalink is a mechanism used by PowerFlex drives to transfer data to and from the controller. Datalinks allow a parameter value to be changed without using an Explicit Message. When enabled (optional), each datalink consumes either two 16 or 32-bit words in both the input and output image depending on its size. The size of Datalinks (16-bit words or 32-bit words) is determined by the drive and displayed in Parameter 07 - [Datalink size] in the adapter.

Rules for Using Datalinks

• Each set of Datalink parameters in a PowerFlex drive can be used by only one adapter. If more than one adapter is connected to a single drive, multiple adapters must not try to use the same Datalink.

• Parameter settings in the drive determine the data passed through the Datalink mechanism. Refer to the documentation for your drive.

• When you use a Datalink to change a value, the value is not written to the Non-Volatile Storage (NVS). The value is stored in volatile memory and lost when the drive loses power.

Using I/O Messaging 5-5

32-Bit Parameters using 16-Bit Datalinks

To read (and/or write) a 32-bit parameter using 16-bit Datalinks, typically both Datalinks (A,B,C,D) are set to the 32-bit parameter. For example, to read Parameter 09 - [Elapsed MWh], both Datalink A1 and A2 are set to “9.” Datalink A1 will contain the least significant word (LSW) and Datalink A2 the most significant word (MSW). In this example, the parameter 9 value of 5.8MWh is read as a “58” in Datalink A1.

Datalink Most/Least Significant Word Parameter Data (decimal)

A1 LSW 9 58 A2 MSW 9 0

Regardless of the Datalink combination, x1 will always contain the LSW and x2 will always contain the MSW. In the following examples Parameter 242 - [Power Up Marker] contains a value of 88.4541 hours.

Datalink Most/Least Significant Word Parameter Data (decimal)

Figure 5.4 Example SLC Ladder Logic - Main Program

This example program is for a PROFIBUS demonstration using a SLC 5/05 processor with an SST Profibus scanner (SST-PFB-SLC) in the first slot of the rack. The program is written for (2) drives on the network:

Station 1 PowerFlex 70 Tabletop demo with 20-COMM-P Station 2 PowerFlex 70 Tabletop demo with 20-COMM-P

The example program demonstrates using Logic Command / Reference, Logic Status / Feedback, Datalinks, and Parameter Access using the Parameter Protocol.

For example, some Profibus scanners operate with high & low bytes swapped (the value "1234" is represented as "3412"). The READ data is copied into N10: and the bytes are reversed in the SWP instruction below so a value such as "3412" is viewed as "1234".

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. If Explicit Messages are programmed to write parameter data to Non-Volatile 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 Explicit Messages to write parameter data to NVS. Datalinks do not write to NVS and should be used for frequently changed parameters.

About Explicit Messaging

Explicit Messaging is used to transfer data that does not require continuous updates. With Explicit Messaging, you can configure and monitor a slave device’s parameters on the PROFIBUS network.

6-2 Using Explicit Messaging (Parameter Protocol)

PWR

STS

PORT

MOD

NET A

NET B

To be able to use the parameter protocols in the 20-COMM-P, the Parameter Access module in the GSD file must be added to the master configuration when configuring the network. Refer to step #21,

Page 4-13

to view the procedure for adding the “Parameter Access” module to a configuration. This maps 4 words input and output to the end of the I/O configuration, which is used as the request/response in the parameter message format (Figure 6.2

Parameter 23 - [Parameter Mode] in the 20-COMM-P module is used to configure the parameter protocol that is active. The default protocol is the Parameter Protocol.

Running Explicit Messages

There are five basic events in the Explicit Messaging process defined below. The details of each step will vary depending on the controller. Refer to the documentation for your controller.

Important: There must be a request message and an response message

for all Explicit Messages, whether you are reading or writing a data.

➊

Using Explicit Messaging (Parameter Protocol) 6-3

Event

1. You format the required data and set up the ladder logic program to

send an Explicit Message request to the scanner module (download).

2. The scanner module transmits the Explicit Message Request to the

slave device over the PROFIBUS network.

3. The slave device transmits the Explicit Message Response back to

the master.

4. The controller retrieves the Explicit Message Response.

5. The Explicit Message is complete.

Parameter Protocol

This protocol uses 4 words in the Profibus I/O area. Requests and responses are a handshake procedure and cannot be batched, meaning that if the master sends a request, it has to wait for the response before sending a new request.

With this protocol you can:

• Read 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit parameters from any DPI port

• Write 8-bit, 16-bit, or 32-bit parameters to any DPI port

• Read the Host Fault object

To enable this protocol set Parameter 23 - [Parameter Mode] to “Par Prot” (default).

Parameter Message Request

Word Description

1 PNU - Parameter Number (Bit 0-10)

The parameter number determines which parameter to access, in the selected peripheral. Parameters 1-1023 can be accessed. Parameter numbers 1024 - 2048 are used to access the fault object. Parameter 1024 is equal to the latest fault, 1025 to the prior fault, and so on.

SPM (Bit 11) Reserved - Should always bet set to 0.

RC - Request Code (Bit 12-15) One of the following codes have to be used:

0 = No request 1 = Request parameter value 2 = Change parameter value (8-bit & 16-bit word) 3 = Change parameter value (32-bit word) 4 -15 = Reserved

2 IND - Index

The index word contains the DPI Port number of the DPI Peripheral that the request is addressed to. The drive always has Port number 0, the Port number of the 20-COMM-P module can be determined from Parameter 01 - [DPI PORT]. This is Port 5 on PowerFlex 70 and PowerFlex 700.

3 PVA - Parameter value (32-bit high word)

The Parameter value, if the parameter is 32 bits, the most significant bytes are placed here.

4 PVA - Parameter value (32-bit low word or 8-bit & 16-bit word)

The Parameter value, if the parameter is 32 bits, the least significant bytes are placed here. If the parameter is 16-bit or lower, the entire result is placed in this word.

Reserved - is always set to 0. RC - Response Code (Bit 12-15)

One of the following codes will be sent: 0 = No request 1 = Transfer parameter value (8-bit & 16-bit word) 2 = Transfer parameter value (32-bit word) 3-6 = Reserved 7 = Request rejected. Error message is found in Word 3, see table below for

fault number description. 8 = No parameter change rights 9-15 = Reserved

2 IND - Index

Port ID of requested parameter

3 PVA - Parameter value (32-bit high word)

The Parameter value, if the parameter is 32 bits, the most significant bytes are placed here. If a fault was requested (Parameter 1024-2048), this word contains the fault code, that identifies the fault.

4 PVA - Parameter value (32-bit low word or 8-bit & 16-bit word)

The Parameter value, if the parameter is 32-bits, the least significant bytes are placed here. If the parameter is 16-bit or lower, the entire result is placed in this word. If a fault was requested (Parameter 1024-2048), the MSB contains the DPI Port number that caused the fault, and the LSB contains the DPI object instance that cause the fault.

S:1

This circuit utilizes the Parameter Protocol. A REQUEST to Station 1 is processed only one at a time, and after each RESPONSE from Station 1 a zero must be sent and received to 'handshake' before the next REQUEST/RESPONSE transaction can take place. For example: Send a parameter read request --> Receive a parameter read response --> Send a "0" --> Receive a "0" --> [Transaction complete]

If the RESPONSE PCA Word 1 (N10:10) is "0", then a REQUEST can be initiated.

Elsewhere in the user program these words must be loaded with message data prior to initiating the REQUEST: N7:10 = RC = the operation to be performed ("1"=Read, "2" = 16-bit Write, "3" = 32-bit Write) N7:11 = PNU = the parameter number to read or write N7:12 = Subindex = the DPI port # ("0"= Host or PowerFlex drive, "5" = 20-COMM-P, etc.) N7:13 = PVA #1 = the parameter value (high word) - only used when writing parameters N7:14 = PVA #2 = the parameter value (low word) - only used when writing parameters

The four Parameter Protocol Words set up in the scanner are used to perform the Parameter Protocol: N20:10 = contains RC (the operation to be performed) and PNU (the parameter number to read or write) combined N20:11 = Subindex (the DPI port #) N20:12 = PVA #1 (the parameter value (high word)) N10:13 = PVA #2 (the parameter value (low word))

B3:19/15 is turned ON elsewhere in the program after the REQUEST message (N7:10-14) is loaded. This causes one Parameter Protocol read or write to occur and B3:19/15 is turned OFF when the transaction is complete.

If the response is >= 7000 hex (28672 decimal), then the adapter is responding that an error has occurred. In this case, the returned data in the response will contain a fault code and not parameter value data.

The response message can be found at: N7:20 = PCA word = contains the RC and PNU N7:21 = Subindex = the DPI port # ("0"= Host or PowerFlex drive, "5" = 20-COMM-P, etc.) N7:22 = PVA #1 = the parameter value (high word) N7:23 = PVA #2 = the parameter value (low word) The PVA's will either contain parameter read data, echo the parameter write data, or contain an error code if unsuccessful.

09 [Comm Flt Action]

Action that the adapter and drive take if the adapter detects that PROFIBUS communications have been disrupted. This setting is effective only if I/O that controls the drive is transmitted through the adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 09- [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action of the adapter and connected drive if the

scanner is idle. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this

parameter so that the drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the setting of this parameter does not create a hazard of injury or equipment damage.

10 [Idle Flt Action]

Sets the action that the adapter and drive take if the adapter detects that scanner is idle because the controller was switched to program mode. This setting is effective only if I/O that controls the drive is transmitted through the adapter.

Default: 0 = Fault Values: 0 = Fault

Type: Read/Write Reset Required: No
