TIP
IMPORTANT
Using the CopyCat Function
PowerFlex 750-Series drives and PowerFlex 7-Class drives provide a CopyCat
function that enables you to upload individual parameter sets for the host drive
or any of its connected peripherals into the HIM. Furthermore, an Upload All
Ports function enables you to conveniently upload multiple parameter sets for the
host drive and all of its connected peripherals in one single file. In either case, this
information can then be used as backup or can be transferred to another drive or
peripheral device by downloading the file from the HIM’s memory.
The Upload All Ports and Download All Ports functions are only available for
the host drive (Port 00) due to their unique functionality.
The CopyCat function also enables you to rename or delete individual or
multiple parameter sets stored in the HIM.
The HIM can store up to 50 individual parameter sets or up to 5 multiple
parameter sets. Due to the memory capacity of the HIM, these maximums will
vary when storing combinations of individual and multiple parameter sets.
Generally, the upload or download transfer process manages all conflicts.
However, the download will stop and a text message will appear if any of the
following conditions exist:
• A device mismatch, such as firmware revision, device type, or device series
is detected.
• The drive is password protected.
• The drive is running.
You then have the option to completely stop the download or continue after
noting the discrepancy for the parameters that could not be downloaded. These
parameters can then be manually adjusted.
When using the HIM with a PowerFlex 753 drive with firmware revision 1.05 or
earlier, or a PowerFlex 755 drive with firmware revision 1.10 or earlier, the
CopyCat function cannot upload/download DeviceLogix values for DLX Out xx
and DLX In xx parameters and DeviceLogix program routines. Drives with a
later firmware revision support this function, but the HIM does not support
screen formatting for the DeviceLogix program.
Creating CopyCat Files
1. Access the Status screen (see Figure 6).
2. Use the or key to scroll to the Port of the device whose
parameter set you want to copy (for example, Port 00 for the host drive).
3. Press the key to display its last-viewed folder.

Rockwell Automation Publication 20HIM-UM001D-EN-P - February 201351
PowerFlex 750-Series drives have special parameters (indirect selector parameters
and reference parameters) which are always associated with other parameters.
The values for these special parameters are actually pointers to other parameters
in the drive or to Host parameters in connected peripherals. To change a
parameter association, first access the indirect selector or reference parameter.
Second, select the port number of the device whose parameter you want to target
for association. Then, select the target parameter of that device. If the target
parameter is a bit parameter, you must also select the appropriate bit you want to
associate with the indirect selector or reference parameter.
Parameter associations can be changed using one of these methods:
• Individual Screen Entry Method—where individual pop-up screens are
used to enter the required parameter association data.
• Direct Numeric Entry Method—where the required parameter association
data is entered as a number string on a single pop-up screen.
The following example illustrates how to use each method to change a parameter
association. Suppose you want the drive speed reference to come from the
network controller via the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter on the Main Control
Board in a PowerFlex 755 drive.
Using Individual Screen Entry Method
1. Access the indirect selector or reference parameter whose association you
want to change (for this example, drive Parameter 545 - [Spd Ref A Sel] as
shown below).
In this example, the Port field is shown selected. Use the or
key to select the Port, Parameter, or Bit (if applicable) fields.
Depending on the indirect selector or reference parameter selected,
you may see more available ports in the list.

Port 00, where the speed Reference parameters for the available drive ports
are located).
The ‘Zero Speed’ setting may be available to select for specific
applications that require a safe-state speed Reference.
4. Press the ENTER soft key to enter the selected port number.
The target parameter selection pop-up box appears (see example screen

Linking Parameters in
PowerFlex 700/700S Drives
Most parameter values are entered directly by the user. However, specific
parameters can be ‘linked’, so the value of one parameter becomes the value of
another. For example, the value of an analog input can be linked to an
acceleration time. Rather than entering an acceleration time directly (via the
HIM), the link allows the value to change by varying the analog input signal. This
can provide additional flexibility for advanced applications.
Each link has two components:
• Source parameter—sender of information
• Destination parameter—receiver of information
Most parameters can be a source of data for a link, except parameters that use an
integer value representing an ENUM (text selection). These are not allowed,
since the integer is not actual data (it represents a value). See the drive
documentation for a list of parameters that can be destinations. All links must be
established between equal data types (parameter value formatted in floating point
can only source data to a destination parameter value that is also a floating point).
Establishing a Link
1. Access a valid destination parameter to be linked (for example, the Accel
Time 1 parameter 140 for a PowerFlex 700 drive or parameter 32 for a
PowerFlex 700S drive).
2. Press the LINK soft key to display the Link pop-up box for that parameter.
3. Enter the source parameter number (for example, the Analog In1 Value
parameter 16 for a PowerFlex 700 drive or parameter 801 for a PowerFlex
700S drive) to which you want to link the destination parameter.
4. Press the ENTER soft key.
The destination parameter screen reappears with the respective source
parameter value now mapped over the destination parameter range, and is
shown in destination parameter units. In this example, the value for
Analog Input 1 is 10.000 volts for a PowerFlex 700 drive, and is shown as
10.0 seconds.

Use the FIX soft key—displayed only if all conflict types are ‘Changed’ or
‘Requires Configuration’—to resolve conflicts. After pressing the FIX soft key, a
pop-up box will appear asking to confirm that the new device(s) should be
accepted. Press the ENTER soft key to affirm and resolve the conflicts for all
devices. Thereafter, the HIM will re-read the drive Port Verification information
to ensure that no further conflicts exist.
Please note the following important conflict resolution information:
• The Device Conflict pop-up window remains on the screen until all conflicts
are resolved.
• All conflicts must be resolved to access a Folder screen or Control screen.
Only the (Stop) key and the assigned soft keys (INFO and FIX) will be
functional until no conflicts exist.
• The host drive will not be able to run while any conflicts are present.

IMPORTANT
Updating the HIM Firmware
or Language
The HIM firmware can be updated over the network or serially through a direct
connection from the drive to the computer using a 1203-USB or 1203-SSS serial
converter.
When updating firmware over the network, you can use the Allen-Bradley
ControlFLASH software tool, the built-in update capability of DriveExplorer
Lite or Full software, or the built-in update capability of DriveExecutive
software.
When updating firmware through a direct serial connection from the drive to the
computer, you can use the same Allen-Bradley software tools described above, or
you can use HyperTerminal software set to the X-modem protocol.
To obtain a firmware or language update for the HIM, go to http://
www.ab.com/support/abdrives/webupdate. This website contains all firmware
update files, supported language files, and associated Release Notes that describe
the following items:
• Firmware update enhancements and anomalies
• How to determine the existing firmware revision
• How to update the firmware using ControlFLASH, DriveExplorer,
DriveExecutive, or HyperTerminal software
When the HIM firmware is updated in the field to support another available
language, the language selected for download will replace all other
supported languages—except English, which always remains as the default
language.
