Configure and Start the Kinetix 5500 Drive System Chapter 6
Understanding 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.
As many as 25 bus-sharing groups are possible.
When Standalone is configured as the Bus Configuration, Standalone (dimmed)
is also configured as the Bus Sharing Group.
Bus-sharing groups do not apply to drives with a Bus Configuration of
Standalone.
