Preconditions for the Use of the ACS / DCS Drives Communication via PROFIBUS Library

Note

The Function Blocks contained in the library can only be executed in RUN mode of the PLC, but not in simulation mode.

The blocks can only be used in combination with the ACSDrivesBase_AC500_V20 Library.

The library is released for the following products:

  • CPUs: AC500

  • Fieldbus: PROFIBUS

  • Drives: ACS800, ACSM1, ACS355, ACS550, ACH550, ACQ810, ACS850, ACS880, ACS580, DCS550, DCS800

  • PROFIBUS configuration:

    Prior to the use of the Function Blocks PROFIBUS Communication Module has to be configured accordingly using Automation Builder, at “Interfaces”.

Note

If the ACS_PB_READ_N_PRM_DPV1 Function Blocks are used at the same time the DriveManager is connecting, refreshing or writing variables, it might come to an error on either the ACS_PB_READ_N_PRM_DPV1 block or the DriveManager.

The DriveManager might be disconnected!
