Configuration - Drive
In the "Drive" configuration window, configure which drive type and which drive you want to
use.
Drive type
In the drop-down list, select whether you want to deploy a PROFIdrive drive or a drive with
an analog drive connection.
PROFIdrive drives are connected to the controller by means of a digital communication
system (PROFINET or PROFIBUS). The communication occurs via PROFIdrive frames.
Drives with an analog drive connection receive the setpoint speed via an analog output
signal (e.g. from -10 V to +10 V) from the PLC.
Drive (drive type: PROFIdrive)
In the "Drive" field, select an already configured PROFIdrive drive / slot. If a PROFIdrive
drive was selected, then it can be configured using the "Device configuration" button.
Switch to the device configuration, and add a PROFIdrive drive in the network view, in the
event that no PROFIdrive drive can be selected.
Analog output (drive type: Analog drive connection)
In the "Output" field, select the PLC tag of the analog output over which the drive is to be
controlled. If an output was selected, then it can be configured using the "Device
configuration" button.
In order to be able to select an output, an analog output module must have been added in
the device configuration, and the PLC tag name for the analog output must be defined.
Activate enable output (drive type: Analog drive connection)
In the "Enable output" field, select the PLC tag of the digital output to enable the drive. With
the enable output, the speed controller in the drive is enabled, or disabled.
In order to be able to select an enable output, a digital output module must have been added
in the device configuration, and the PLC tag name for the digital output must be defined.
Note
If you do not use an enable output, the drive cannot be immediately disabled on the part of
the system due to error reactions or monitoring functions. A controlled stop of the drive is not
guaranteed.
