Chapter 3
Programming and Parameters
This chapter provides a complete listing and description of the PowerFlex 520-
series drive parameters. Parameters are programmed (viewed/edited) using
either the drive’s built-in keypad, RSLogix 5000 software version 17.0 or
greater, Studio 5000 Logix Designer application version 21.0 or greater, or
Connected Components Workbench software version 5.0 or later. The
Connected Components Workbench software can be used offline (through
USB) to upload parameter configurations to the drive or online (through
Ethernet connection).
Limited functionality is also available when using the Connected Components
Workbench software online (through DSI and serial converter module), a
legacy external HIM, or legacy software online (DriveToolsâ„¢ SP). When using
these methods, the parameter list can only be displayed linearly, and there is
no access to communications option card programming.
About Parameters To configure a drive to operate in a specific way, drive parameters may have to
be set. Three types of parameters exist:
• ENUM
ENUM parameters allow a selection from two or more items. Each item
is represented by a number.
• Numeric Parameters
These parameters have a single numerical value (0.1V).
• Bit Parameters
Bit parameters have five individual digits associated with features or
conditions. If the digit is 0, the feature is off or the condition is false. If
the digit is 1, the feature is on or the condition is true.
