Features
The features of the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter include:
• Switches to set an IP address before applying power to the drive—or
you can disable the switches and use a BOOTP server or adapter
parameters to configure the IP address.
• Compatibility with various configuration tools to configure the
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter and host drive. The tools include the
enhanced PowerFlex 7-Class HIM (Human Interface Module) on the
drive, and drive-configuration software such as DriveExplorer
(version 6.01 or higher) or DriveExecutive (version 5.01 or higher).
• Status indicators that report the status of the embedded EtherNet/IP
adapter and network communications. They are visible when the
drive cover is open or closed.
• Parameter-configurable 32-bit Datalinks in the I/O to meet
application requirements (16 for writing data from the network, and
16 for reading data to the network).
• Explicit Messaging support.
• Master-Slave or Peer-to-Peer hierarchy that can be configured to
transmit data to and from either a controller or another PowerFlex
750-Series drive on the network.
• User-defined fault actions to determine how the embedded EtherNet/
IP adapter and its host PowerFlex 755 drive respond to:
– I/O messaging communication disruptions (Comm Flt Action)
– Controllers in idle mode (Idle Flt Action)
– Peer device communication disruptions (Peer Flt Action)
– Explicit messaging disruptions for drive control via PCCC and
the CIP Register Object (Msg Flt Action)
• Web pages, viewed using a web browser, that show information
about the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter, its host drive, and DPI
devices connected to the drive.
• Configurable e-mail messaging to desired addresses when selected
drive faults occur and/or are cleared, and/or when the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter takes a communication or idle fault action.
• Support for DPI routing, enabling access to any networked
PowerFlex 7-Class drive using DriveExplorer (version 6.01 or
higher) to monitor and configure that drive and its connected
peripherals.

Preparing for an Installation
Before installing the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter:
• Read the EtherNet/IP Performance and Application Guide
(publication ENET-AP001) and EtherNet/IP Media Planning and
Installation Manual (publication ENET-IN001).
• Understand IGMP Snooping/Ethernet Switches
Much of EtherNet/IP implicit (I/O) messaging uses IP multicast
(including this embedded EtherNet/IP adapter) to distribute I/O
control data, which is consistent with the CIP producer/consumer
model. Historically, most switches have treated multicast packets the
same as broadcast packets. That is, all multicast packets are
re-transmitted to all ports.
IGMP snooping constrains the flooding of multicast traffic by
dynamically configuring switch ports so that multicast traffic is
forwarded only to ports associated with a particular IP multicast group.
Switches that support IGMP snooping “learn” which ports have
devices that are part of a particular multicast group and only forward
the multicast packets to the ports that are part of the multicast group.
Be careful as to what level of support a switch has of IGMP snooping.
Some layer 2 switches that support IGMP snooping require a router
(which could be a layer 3 switch) to send out IGMP polls to learn
what devices are part of the multicast group. Some layer 2 switches
can use IGMP snooping without a router sending polls. If your
control system is a stand-alone network or is required to continue
performing if the router is out of service, make sure the switch you
are using supports IGMP snooping without a router being present.
• Verify that you have all required equipment. Refer to Required
Equipment on page 1-3.

Publication 750COM-UM001A-EN-P
2-2 Installing the Adapter
Setting the IP Address Switches
There are three methods for configuring the embedded EtherNet/IP
adapter’s IP address:
• Adapter Rotary Switches — Use the switches when working on a
simple, isolated network (for example, 192.168.1.xxx) that has other
products with switches to set their IP addresses, does not need to be
accessed from outside the network, and you prefer a simplified node
addressing method. The three adapter switches are read when the
drive powers up, and represent three decimal digits from top to
bottom (see Figure 2.1
adapter will use that value as the lower octet of its IP address
(192.168.1.xxx, where xxx = rotary switch settings), along with a
subnet mask of 255.255.255.0 and there will be no gateway
configured. Also, the setting for adapter Parameter 36 - [BOOTP]
is automatically ignored.
See Figure 2.1

and its accompanying table for all possible switch

the IP address it detects when it first receives power.
). If set to a valid address (001-254), the
• Adapter Parameters — Use adapter parameters when you want
more flexibility in setting up the IP address, or need to communicate
outside the control network using a gateway. The IP address, subnet
mask, and gateway addresses will then come from the adapter
parameters you set.
Important:Regardless of the method used to set the adapter’s IP
address, each node on the EtherNet/IP network must have a
unique IP address. To change an IP address, you must set
the new value and then remove and reapply power to (or
reset) the adapter.

2-6 Installing the Adapter
Configuring/Verifying Key Drive Parameters
The PowerFlex 755 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 545 - [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed
Reference to “Port 13 Reference” (the drive port dedicated to the
embedded EtherNet/IP adapter).
2. Verify that drive Parameter 930 - [Speed Ref Source] is reporting
that the source of the Reference to the drive is “Port 13 Reference.”
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/adapter or the
network is the cause.
Commissioning the Adapter
3. If hard-wired discrete digital inputs are not used to control the
drive, verify that all unused digital input parameters are set to “Not
Used.”
To commission the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter, you must set a
unique IP address. See the Glossary
When using the adapter switches, refer to Setting the IP Address
Switches on page 2-2. When not using the adapter switches, use either a
BOOTP server or adapter parameters to set the IP address after
connecting the adapter to the network and applying power to the drive.
By default, the adapter is configured so that you must set the IP address
using a BOOTP server. For details, see Using BOOTP
set the IP address using adapter parameters, refer to Setting the IP
Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway Address on page 3-5.
Important:New settings for some adapter parameters (for example,
Parameters 38 - [IP Addr Cfg 1] through 41 - [IP Addr
Cfg 4]) are recognized only when power is applied to the
adapter or it is reset. After you change parameter settings,
cycle power or reset the adapter.

3-2 Configuring the Adapter
Using BOOTP
By default, the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter is configured to set its IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway address by using a BOOTP utility.
You can select from a variety of BOOTP utilities. These instructions use
Rockwell’s BOOTP Server (version 2.3 or higher), a stand-alone
program that incorporates the functionality of standard BOOTP utilities
with a graphical interface. It is available from www.ab.com/networks/
bootp.html. Refer to the Readme file and online Help for detailed
directions and information.
TIP: If desired, you can disable BOOTP and configure the IP address,
subnet mask, and gateway address by setting adapter parameters. For
details, see Setting the IP Address, Subnet Mask, and Gateway
Address on page 3-5.
Configuring the Adapter Using BOOTP Server
1. Verify and note the adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC),
which will be used in Step 6. There are two ways to do this:
– Use the HIM to scroll to Port 13 and access the embedded
EtherNet/IP adapter’s DIAGNOSTIC folder screen. Then scroll
to Diagnostic Items 43 (HW Addr 1) through 48 (HW Addr 6) to
view the adapter’s hardware Ethernet Address (MAC).
– Remove the drive cover and locate the adapter’s hardware
Ethernet Address (MAC) label on the drive’s Main Control
Board (Figure 3.1
).

with a master, such as a bridge or controller. In a Peer-to-Peer hierarchy,
the adapter exchanges data with one or more EtherNet/IP adapters in
other PowerFlex 750-Series drives. (The drives must have compatible
Logic Command/Status words).
For both Master-Slave and Peer-to-Peer hierarchies, the devices
exchanging data must be on the same IP subnet. See “IP Addresses” in
the Glossary

Enabling Datalinks To Write Data
The controller output image (controller outputs-to-drive) can have
anywhere from 0 to 16 additional 32-bit parameters (Datalinks). They
are configured using Parameters 01 - [DL From Net 01] through 16 -
[DL From Net 16]. The number of Datalinks actively used is controlled
by the connection size in the controller. See the respective controller
example sections in Chapter
connection sizes.
for information about IP subnets.

Important:Always use the Datalink parameters in consecutive
numerical order, starting with the first parameter. For
example, use Parameters 01, 02, and 03 to configure 3
Datalinks to write data. Otherwise, the network I/O
connection will be larger than necessary, which needlessly
increases controller response time and memory usage.
TIP: When using a ControlLogix controller and an RSLogix 5000
Add-On Drive Profile (v16 or higher), there is no need to configure
Datalink parameters at this time. They will be assigned when
configuring the RSLogix 5000 Add-On Drive Profile (see Adding the
Drive/Adapter to the I/O Configuration on page 4-5).
When using a ControlLogix controller and the Generic Profile, or a
PLC-5, SLC 500 or MicroLogix 1100 controller, configure the Datalink
parameters now as described in this section.
Parameters 01 - [DL From Net 01] through 16 - [DL From Net 16]
control which parameters in the drive, adapter, or any other connected
peripheral receive the values from the network. The enhanced
PowerFlex 7-Class HIM, DriveExplorer, and DriveExecutive provide
user-friendly screens to help 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 Parameter 01 - [DL From Net
01] to write to Parameter 03 of an optional encoder card plugged into
