Chapter 5 Using the I/O
Understanding the I/O Image The terms
input and output are defined from the controller’s point of view.
Therefore, output I/O is data that is produced by the controller and consumed by
the adapter. Input I/O is status data that is produced by the adapter and
consumed as input by the controller. The I/O image will vary based on how many
of the drive’s 16-bit Datalinks (
Host parameters C161...C164 [Opt Data In
1...4] and C165...C168 [Opt Data Out 1...4] are used.
Device parameters 02
[DLs From Net Cfg] and 04 [DLs To Net Cfg] must also be configured
accordingly if Datalinks are used.
If all available I/O is not used, the image is truncated. The image always uses
consecutive words starting at word zero.
CompactLogix Controller I/O Image for PowerFlex 520-Series Drives on
page 48
shows the I/O image when using all of the 16-bit Datalinks.

Single drive mode is the typical configuration, where one node consists of a
PowerFlex 525 drive with a 25-COMM-D adapter.
For Multi-Drive mode, where one node can consist of up to 5 drives, see
Chapter 7 , Using Multi-Drive Mode .
Using Logic Command/Status The Logic Command is a 16-bit word of control data produced by the controller
and consumed by the adapter. The Logic Status is a 16-bit word of status data
produced by the adapter and consumed by the controller.
When using a CompactLogix/ControlLogix controller, the Logic Command
word is always INT 0 in the output image and the Logic Status word is always
INT 0 in the input image.
This manual contains the bit definitions for compatible products available at the
time of publication in
Appendix D , Logic Command/Status Words: PowerFlex
525 Drives .
Using Reference/Feedback The Reference is a 16-bit INT (integer) produced by the controller and
consumed by the adapter. The Feedback is a 16-bit INT produced by the adapter
and consumed by the controller.
