Chapter 6 Configure and Start the Kinetix 5500 Drive System
Understand Bus-sharing
Group Configuration
When configuring Module Properties>Power tab for each Kinetix 5500 servo
drive, you can breakout drives from one or more servo systems into multiple
bus-sharing (power) groups.
A drive that faults in Group 1 does not affect the operation of Group 2, even
though all of the drives in Groups 1 and 2 are in the same Motion group in the
Logix Designer application.
Figure 63 - 25 Bus-sharing Groups Are Possible
Figure 64 - Standalone Bus Configuration
IMPORTANT Bus-sharing groups do not apply to drives with a Bus Configuration of
Standalone. When Standalone is configured as the Bus Configuration,
Standalone (dimmed) is also configured as the Bus Sharing Group.
