Configuring the I/O

Chapter 4

There are three Electronic Keying choices available in the Module
Definition window in the drive AOP, but only two are recommended with
ADC:

Electronic Keying for HIMs and serial converters are disabled by default.
These are typically temporary devices or used for monitoring purposes
only and therefore “do not matter” if they are present or not. You still have
the option to select these to other Keying selections if desired.

Click OK when finished.

3.

Select the Drive tab and click the ADC icon

to open the ADC

Settings.

The ADC Settings window provides a single location for ADC
configuration of the drive’s ports. Global checkboxes at the top of each
column checks or unchecks the entire column. Ports can also be turned
on/off individually. See the checkbox selection information in Step 3 for
additional details.

Click OK when finished.

4.

Perform the above steps for each additional PowerFlex 525 drive.

5.

Save your project and download the project to the Logix controller.

Keying Selection Recommendation

Exact Match

This selection should only be used if:
Your system design specification requires that a replacement drive/peripheral be identical –

down to the Minor revision of firmware (x.xxx).

You will be implementing Firmware Supervisor flash support in addition to ADC. ControlFlash

firmware kits for the revision of firmware used for each drive/peripheral must be installed on the
PC running RSLogix 5000/Logix Designer. Flash files can be downloaded from:

http://www.ab.com/support/abdrives/webupdate

Compatible Module This selection is the typical ADC selection when Firmware Supervisor is not used. A replacement

drive (including peripherals) will need to have the same or higher firmware revision as the original.
Since drives with newer firmware are required to be compatible with older firmware, this allows
ADC to work without compatibility concerns. Note that if a Series change accompanies a Major
firmware change, the replacement drive may or may not be “compatible” with respect to keying.

Disabled

When using ADC, this selection should generally not be used. This selection allows a replacement
drive to have any different Major (x.xxx) and/or Minor (x.xxx) firmware revision. It is up to the user
to provide a replacement that has a firmware revision later than or equal to the original drive. If a
replacement drive with older firmware is used, the ADC download may fail.

TIP

Electronic Keying settings for peripherals can be modified in the Drive
tab of the AOP. Select the peripheral tab for the device you wish to
modify, then click Properties.
