DCS drives

DCS550 and DCS800 drives

To exchange only status word, actual speed, control word and speed reference:

Communication function block in AC500 program:

Use function block “DrvModbusTcp”. ⮫ “DrvModbusTcp”
“DrvModbusTcp”
Control function block in AC500 program:

Use function block “DrvControlModbusDCS”. ⮫ “DrvControlModbusDCS”
Scaling of the speed or torque (optional):

Use function block “DrvScaling”. ⮫ “DrvScaling”

To exchange more than above mentioned values use additionally the following blocks:

Read the values:

Use the function block “DrvModbusRead”. ⮫ “DrvModbusRead”
Write the values:

Use the function block “DrvModbusWrite”. ⮫ “DrvModbusWrite”
Read write the values:

Use the function block “DrvModbusReadWrite23”. ⮫ “DrvModbusReadWrite23”
