ACS850 More parameters read from drive to PLC 
Actual value or 
parameter of drive 
GG = parameter group, ii = parameter index 
Example, 0104 = actual current; 0117 = motor temp 1 
Updates fieldbus settings (groups 50 to 53) 
ACS850 More parameters written from PLC to drive

Example, 2202 = acceleration time 1 
Updates fieldbus settings (groups 50 to 53) 
Configuring ACS880 drives 
Starting ACS880 drives for PROFIBUS DP 
1.  Power up the drive. 
2.  Enable the communication between the adapter module and the drive by setting parameter 50.01 
FBA A Enable to Enable. 
3.  Select how the drive reacts to a fieldbus communication break with parameter 50.02 FBA A comm 
loss func.  
Note: This function monitors both communication between the fieldbus master and the adapter 
module and communication between the adapter module and the drive. 
4.  Define the time between communication break detection and the selected action with parameter 
50.03 FBA A comm loss t out. 
5.  Select application-specific values for the rest of the parameters in group 50, starting from 50.04. 
6.  Set the FPBA-01 configuration parameters in group 51. At the minimum, set the required node 
address in parameter 51.02 Node address and the communication profile in 51.05 = 1 (ABB drives). 
7.  Define the process data transferred to and from the drive in FBA-01 configuration parameter groups 
52 and 53.  
Note: The adapter module sets the Status word and Control word automatically in parameters 52.01 
and 53.01. 
8.  Validate the settings made in parameter groups 51, 52 and 53 by setting parameter 51.27 FBA par 
refresh to Configure. 
9.  Save the valid parameter values to permanent memory by setting parameter 96.07 Param save to 
Save. 
10. Set the relevant drive control parameters to control the drive according to the application.
