Add-On Instruction

PowerFlex 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives (P_PF52x)

The P_PF52x (PowerFlex® 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives) object is used to
control and monitor a PowerFlex 523 variable-frequency drive with optional
EtherNet/IP Interface. The P_PF52x can also control and monitor a PowerFlex
525 variable-frequency drive with embedded or optional add-on EtherNet/IP
Interface.

Faceplate

Global Objects

Guidelines

Use this instruction to monitor and control a motor that uses an Allen-Bradley®
PowerFlex 523 or PowerFlex 525 variable frequency drive interfaced via
EtherNet/IP. This instruction provides for collecting and displaying diagnostic
information from the drive by using configured datalinks on the EtherNet/IP
interface.

Do not use this instruction with other Allen-Bradley drive families. There are
dedicated Add-On Instructions for the PowerFlex 753 variable frequency drive
that use the 20-COMM-E EtherNet/IP interface (P_PF753), and for the
PowerFlex 753 or 755 variable frequency drive that uses the built-in or add-on
20-750-series EtherNet/IP interfaces (P_PF755). It is highly recommended that
other Allen-Bradley (or non-Allen-Bradley) drive families use the P_VSD generic
Variable Speed Drive Add-On Instruction.

PowerFlex 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives (P_PF52x)

Required Files

Add-On Instructions are reusable code objects that contain encapsulated logic
that can streamline implementing your system. With this code, you can create
your own instruction set for programming logic as a supplement to the
instruction set provided natively in the ControlLogix® firmware. An Add-On
Instruction is defined once in each controller project, and can be instantiated
multiple times in your application code as needed.

Controller File

The P_PF52x_3_5-00_RUNG.L5X rung import must be imported into the
controller project to be used in the controller configuration. The service release
number (boldfaced) can change as service revisions are created.

Visualization Files

This Add-On Instruction has associated visualization files that provide a
common user interface. These files can be downloaded from the Product
Compatibility and Download Center at

http://www.rockwellautomation.com/rockwellautomation/support/pcdc.page.

IMPORTANT

The visualization file dependencies require Process Library content imports to
occur in a specific order as reflected in the following tables:

• Images

• Global Objects

• Standard Displays

• HMI Tags

• Macros

Images are external graphic files that can be used in displays. They must be
imported for FactoryTalk View to make use of them.

When PNG files are imported, they are renamed by FactoryTalk View with
a .bmp file extension, but retain a .png format.

Operations

This section describes the primary operations for Add-On Instructions.

Modes

This instruction uses the following standard modes, which are implemented by
using an embedded P_Mode Add-On Instruction.

Table 12 - Modes

Mode Description

Operator The Operator owns control of the device. Operator commands (OCmd_) and Operator settings

(OSet_) from the HMI are accepted.

Program Program logic owns control of the device. Program commands (PCmd_) and Program settings

(PSet_) are accepted.

Override Priority logic owns control of the device and supersedes Operator and Program control. Override

Inputs (Inp_OvrdCmd and other Inp_OvrdXxxx values) are accepted. If so configured,
bypassable interlocks and permissives are bypassed.

Maintenance Maintenance owns control of the device and supersedes Operator, Program, and Override

control. Operator commands and settings from the HMI are accepted. Bypassable interlocks and
permissives are bypassed, and device timeout checks are not processed.

Hand Hardwired logic or other logic outside the instruction owns control of the device. The instruction

tracks the state of the device for bumpless transfer back to one of the other modes.

No Mode The device is disabled and has no owner because the EnableIn input is false. The main

instruction Logic routine is not being scanned. See Execution section for more information on
EnableInFalse processing.

IMPORTANT

Instructions with Cfg_OperKeep and Cfg_ProgKeep keep some aspects of the
device operation with the operator or program regardless of whether the main
mode is Program or Operator mode.

See Rockwell Automation Library of Process Objects: Common Mode Block
(P_Mode) Reference Manual, publication

SYSLIB-RM005, for more

information.

Rockwell Automation Publication SYSLIB-RM048D-EN-P - February 2017 25

PowerFlex 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives (P_PF52x)

Alarms

This instruction uses the following alarms, which are implemented by using
embedded P_Alarm and P_Gate Add-On Instructions.

Alarm Name P_Alarm Name P_Gate Name Description

Drive Fault DriveFault None Raised when the drive detects a fault and sets its

Faulted status bit. Check the Fault Code and
description to determine the cause. Issuing a Reset of
this object will cause a Clear Fault command to be
sent to the drive in an attempt to clear the fault.

Fail to Start FailToStart None Raised when the drive has and is using run feedback,

an attempt is made to start the drive, and the run
feedback does not indicate that the drive is running
within the configured time. If Fail to Start is
configured as a shed fault, the drive is stopped and a
reset is required in order to start the drive.

Fail to Stop FailToStop None Raised when the drive has and is using run feedback,

an attempt is made to stop the drive, and the run
feedback does not indicate that the drive stopped
within the configured time.

Interlock Trip IntlkTrip None Raised when the drive is running and an interlock ’not

OK’ condition causes the drive to stop.
If interlocks are not bypassed, a bypassable interlock

or a non-bypassable interlock 'not OK' condition
initiates an interlock trip. If interlocks are bypassed,
only a non-bypassable interlock 'not OK' condition
initiates an interlock trip.

I/O Fault IOFault None Raised when the Inp_IOFault input is true. This input

is usually used to indicate to the instruction that a
communication failure has occurred for its I/O. If the
I/O Fault is configured as a shed fault, the drive is
stopped and not permitted to start until reset.

Parameters of the P_Alarm object can be accessed by using the following
convention: [P_Alarm Name].[P_Alarm Parameter].

See Rockwell Automation Library of Process Objects: Common Alarm Block
(P_Alarm) Reference Manual, publication

SYSLIB-RM002, for more

information.

Simulation

Simulation in the P_PF52x Add-On Instruction disables the normal output and
provides the feedback of a working drive

Set the Inp_Sim parameter in the controller to ‘1’ to enable simulation. The

Simulation icon is displayed at the bottom left of the Operator faceplate,
and indicates that the device is in simulation.

You can also use the following parameters in simulation:

• Cfg_SimScaleEU to scale Speed Reference engineering units to Speed
Feedback engineering units

• Cfg_SimScaleRaw to scale Speed Reference engineering units to raw and
then raw to Speed Feedback engineering units

• Cfg_SimRampT to set the time in seconds to ramp speed feedback

When you have finished in simulation, set the Inp_Sim parameter in the
controller to ‘0’ to return to normal operation.

Execution

The following table explains the handling of instruction execution conditions.

Condition Description

EnableIn False (false rung) Processing for EnableIn False (false rung) is handled the

Powerup (prescan, first scan) Processing of modes and alarms on prescan and Powerup

PowerFlex 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives (P_PF52x)

Programming Example

The following example shows the P_PF52x in ladder context. Here, ladder logic
is used to copy the drive input data from the input assembly tag to a buffer tag of
type P_PF52x_Inp.

Next, the P_PF52x Add-On Instruction executes.

Finally, the drive command bits used by the P_PF52x instruction and the drive
speed reference are copied out to the drive. A buffer tag of type P_PF52x_Out is
used.

PowerFlex 523/525 Variable Frequency Drives (P_PF52x)

Display Elements

The P_PF52x instruction uses the same HMI display elements that are used for
the Variable Speed Drive (P_VSD) instruction.

A display element (global object) is created once and can be referenced multiple
times on multiple displays in an application. When changes are made to the
original (base) object, the instantiated copies (reference objects) are
automatically updated. Use of global objects, with tag structures in the
ControlLogix system, aid consistency and save engineering time.
