4.4.4
Lenze devices (Motion/Logic) for Controller-based Automation
Basically, the "Controller-based Automation" system consists of a Controller as the central
component and inverters designed for the system (e.g. Servo Inverters i700).
• Moreover, the Lenze devices mentioned in the following sections can be used in connection
with the Controller-based Automation.
• Depending on the runtime software used (Logic/Motion), a bus system for a Lenze device series
can be used in a limited way. For details, see
.
4.4.4.1
Devices for Motion applications: "Inverter as actuating drive"
It is the main feature of Motion applications that the sequence control and the motion control both
run in the controller. The inverters act as actuating drives.
The following Lenze devices support "Motion" functions that are running in the controller:
• i700 servo inverter
• Servo Drives 9400 Highline ("CiA 402" application)
• Servo Drives ECSxM ("Motion" application)
4.4.4.2
Devices for Logic applications: "Intelligence in the inverter"
It is the main feature of Logic applications that the sequence control runs in the controller. The
motion control runs in the inverter.
The following Lenze device series support "Logic" functions that are running in the controller:
• Inverter
• Servo Drive 9400 Highline
• Inverter Drives 8400 StateLine/HighLine/TopLine
• Inverter Drives 8400 motec/protec
• further Lenze devices
• I/O system 1000
• HMI series EL 100
The use of a device for Logic applications for instance is advisable if no device is available for the
desired drive power, which supports Motion applications in the controller.
