Communication Configuration
A PowerFlex 700AFE bus supply with a communication option card can
usually be replaced with a PowerFlex 755T communication option card. The
process to migrate can vary significantly depending on the communication
option in the PowerFlex 700AFE bus supply and the controller type
communicating with the bus supply.
This section describes the network options that are compatible with the
PowerFlex 755TM bus supplies. Because of the wide variety of networks,
processors, and drive options available, use this section to understand the types
of network communication that are available for the PowerFlex 755T
products, and determine the correct communication option for your bus
supply migration.
In some cases, it is necessary to remap and translate reference, status, control,
and Datalink registers if PLC-5, SLC, or certain MircoLogix controllers are
communicating with the PowerFlex 755TM bus supply.
Use Table 39
to cross reference the existing PowerFlex 700AFE
communication module to a compatible PowerFlex 755T communication
module. If your existing communication protocol does not have a compatible
PowerFlex 755T communication module, contact an Authorized Rockwell
Automation Distributor specialist, Solution Partner, Recognized System
Integrator, or Rockwell Automation account manager to discuss engineered
solutions for custom migrations.
IMPORTANT Refer to the respective communication adapter user manuals. The manuals
provide important configuration, installation, wiring, and programming
processes required for proper operation.
