Compatible Products
At the time of publication, the adapter is compatible with the following
products:
Required Equipment
Some of the equipment that is required for use with the adapter is shipped
with the adapter, but some you must supply yourself.
Equipment Shipped with the Adapter
When you unpack the adapter, verify that the package includes the following:
User-Supplied Equipment
To install and configure the adapter, you must supply the following:
• PowerFlex 70 drives with standard or enhanced control
• PowerFlex 750-Series drives
(1)
• PowerFlex 700 drives with standard or vector control
• PowerFlex Digital DC drives
• PowerFlex 700H drives
• DPI External Comms Kit
• PowerFlex 700S drives with Phase I or Phase II control
• SMC™ Flex smart motor controllers
• PowerFlex 700L drives with 700 vector control or 700S control
• SMC-50 smart motor controllers

The 20-COMM-E adapter can be used with PowerFlex 750-Series drives, but the drive must have firmware revision 4.001
or later. Also, the 20-COMM-E adapter has the following limitations and differences:
- Only the first 16 bits of the Logic Command and Logic Status words are used.
- Speed Reference and Feedback scaling are Hz (or RPM) x 1000 (depending on the setting of drive
parameter 300 - [Speed Units].
Instead of using the 20-COMM-E adapter with the PowerFlex 753 drive, the 20-750-ENETR Dual-port EtherNet/IP option
module should be used whenever possible. Please see the PowerFlex 750-Series AC Drives Programming Manual,
publication 750-PM001, for drive parameter information and the 20-750-ENETR Dual-Port EtherNet/IP Option Module User
Manual, publication 750COM-UM008, for network communication module information. For a PowerFlex 755 drive, it is
recommended to use its embedded EtherNet/IP adapter instead of the 20-COMM-E adapter and its inherent limitations.

20COMM-IN004
TIP: When mounting the 20-COMM-E adapter in a PowerFlex 750-Series
drive, you must use a 20-750-20COMM or 20-750-20COMM-F1
Communication Carrier Card, publication 750COM-IN001—and the
20-COMM-E adapter must have firmware revision 4.001 or later.
