Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 750-Series Profibus DPV1 module

Saturday, 14 April, 2012 | Supplied by: Rockwell Automation Australia


The PowerFlex 750-Series Profibus DPV1 module enables users to integrate the Allen-Bradley PowerFlex 750-Series AC drives with Profibus networks through a standard D89 connector. The optional module mounts inside the PowerFlex 753 and 755 AC drives to save panel space and offers V1 services beyond the standard V0 services. Various tools can be used to flash upgrade and configure the module and connected drive(s) including the Enhanced PowerFlex 7-Class HIM or drive configuration software such as DriveExplorer and DriveExecutive.

The module supports I/O Messaging, which is used to transfer time-critical information, including data that controls the drive. The module can send and receive logic command/reference, logic status/feedback and datalinks and read and write up to 32 parameters simultaneously. It also supports Explicit Messaging for non-time-critical information that is typically triggered by the application (such as a ladder program in the controller). The module supports reading/writing of drive parameters, reading the drive fault queue and reading/writing of option or other peripheral parameters.

The module has a binary-coded decimal switch for setting the node address (01-126). Alternatively, the switch can be disabled (00 - all off), allowing the node address to be set using a configuration parameter. There is a dedicated switch setting that allows for byte swapping on the network, depending on the controller selected to communicate with the module.

A Network Operating Mode jumper allows users to set the operating mode of the module from either standard Profibus or ProfiDrive, providing network flexibility and convenience.
