Mapping FIELDBUS parameters The PL/X parameters require mapping to the host PC software. 5.1 Using drive.web savvy to map parameters The PL/X series of DC Drives operate with several ethernet-based distributed control systems (DCS), for example, drive.web savvy. https://driveweb.com/get-savvy/ Implement savvy economically by using off-the-shelf ethernet hubs and connection cables.

To map a parameter between the PL/X and the host: Select a on the FIELDBUS screen. GOTO GOTO GET FROM FROM From the drop-down menu, select "Connect to...". From the "Make Connection" menu, select the PL/X parameter to link to and click "OK".
6 Setting an IP Address using HMS IPconfig Setting an IP Address using HMS IPconfig The Modbus TCP, EtherNet/IP and PROFINET modules require a valid IP Address to connect to their fieldbus network. The IP Address may be obtained from a DHCP server (default) or from a fieldbus controller, e.g.
