CONNECTED COMPONENTS WORKBENCH (CCW)
To read alarms and faults directly from the drive a Rockwell pro-
gram called Connected Components Workbench (CCW) is
required. CCW can be connected using the Ethernet connection
terminated through the door, for safe connection to the drive with-
out disconnecting power. Alternatively, the power can be removed
and the Ethernet connection can be made directly to the main con-
trol board Ethernet connection.
Carrier recommends CCW version 12 or later for PF755TL chiller
applications. This can be downloaded from Rockwell’s website.
To connect a computer to CCW via Ethernet, the user has to set
the connection IP address to something similar as the drive and
same subnet mask. See Fig. 23.
Unless the IP address of the drive is known, it is recommended to
observe the actual setting of the dial switches. Base is
192.168.1.XXX (Item 4 on Fig. 13). It is recommended to do a
ping test between the drive and the computer prior to starting
CCW to ensure that there is zero percent loss between drive and
computer. In Fig. 23 the IP address is identified as 192.168.1.19
and the computer IP address is configured for 192.168.1.100.

If using CCW for the first time, follow the steps below.
1. When starting CCW go to Communications drop down and
select Configure Drivers. See Fig. 24.

2. Select “Add New” driver and give it a unique name, then
click OK. See Fig. 25.

3. Set Host to the same address as the computer IP address. See
Fig. 26.

4. Once the communication driver is set up, select Discover in
CCW and select the appropriate device. See Fig. 27 and 28.
