Configuration of Drive DeviceNet Parameters 6-5
Motor Nameplate Configuration
The Drive Motor Data must be configured before receiving commands from a Master device. The Drive uses the
Motor parameters to scale the speed commands from the Master device for the motor that is being used. The
Motor parameters are in the EDS parameter group “DN: Motor Data”. The Motor parameters that must be
configured are shown in the following table along with their respective EDS location and DeviceNet path.

Usually, the required motor data can be found on the motor nameplate.
Drive Application Parameters Configuration
The specific application of the Drive will determine whether any of the remaining Drive application parameters
(other than those mentioned in this chapter) need to be configured. These Drive parameters can be accessed
via DeviceNet through the DeviceNet configuration tool, i.e. Rockwell Software RSNetWorx™, with the Drive’s
EDS file. Details on the Drive EDS can be found in Chapter 5. See the Drive User Manual for details of Drive
parameters.
