Sequence when creating drive components

Overview
As a rule, the needed components must be inserted into the device configuration and specified
after a new project is created. If the recommended sequence is maintained when inserting the
components, then the inserted components are also automatically wired.
Recommended order
We recommend the drive components be inserted in the following order:
1. Control Unit
2. Infeed unit
3. Motor Module or Power Module
4. Motor
5. Encoders or measuring systems
6. Supplementary system components (e.g.: Terminal Module, Terminal Board,
Communication Board, Voltage Sensing Module)
If this sequence is not complied with (e.g. because the infeed unit is only subsequently added),
then it is possible that the components are not automatically wired. In this case, you must
manually establish the wiring in the device view (see Chapter "Editing DRIVE-CLiQ connections
(Page 117)").
Note
For some motors, an appropriate encoder is simultaneously created in the device view when
creating and specifying a motor. The corresponding encoder is specified together with the
motor.
Note
When you use Power Modules, it is usually possible to dispense with an infeed unit. Point 2 in the
list above is then no longer applicable.
