Preface
This manual provides migration guidelines for replacing Kinetix® 6000 servo
drive systems with Kinetix 5700 servo drive systems.
Migrating from Kinetix 6000 servo drives to a motion system that uses
Kinetix 5700 servo drives requires a comprehensive design review of the
motion control system. There are replacement drives and potentially new
motor combinations, and changes in the Studio 5000 Logix Designer®
application. In addition, there are system changes that are required because of
the communication protocol changes.
To compare motion systems that use Sercos interface and EtherNet/IP™
networks with a LOGIX 5000™ programmable automation controller (PAC),
see Integrated Motion on SERCOS and EtherNet/IP Network - Analysis and
Comparison, publication MOTION-AT006
.
This manual is intended for engineers and technicians that are directly
involved in the installation and wiring of the Kinetix 5700 drive modules, and
programmers who are directly involved in the operation, field maintenance,
and integration of these modules with the EtherNet/IP communication
module or controller.

These replacement guidelines contain the following chapters.
Conventions Used in This
Manual
These conventions are used throughout this manual:
• Bulleted lists such as this one provide information, not procedural steps
• Numbered lists provide sequential steps or hierarchical information
Topic Description
Chapter 1 - System Replacement Considerations
Includes a Kinetix 6000 migration checklist, a comprehensive
table that compares system components, and background
information on Kinetix 5700 drive system features.
Chapter 2 - Servo Drive and System Comparison
Includes tables and drive system diagrams that compare axis
module output current, dimensions, AC input power, circuit
protection, and cables.
Chapter 3 - System Replacement Examples
Includes two system migration examples with common tasks
for both systems and specific replacements for drive modules,
input power components, and accessory items.
