ABB Let’s connect Drop-in connectivity to Logix5000 controllers

Universal Connectivity – Simplifying ABB drive commissioning and connectivity to EtherNet/IP™ and ControlNet™ networks

AOI 1.0 for New VFD Applications

This Add-on Instruction is designed to be used in new VFD

applications. The User Defined Data Type (UDT) defines the

tag descriptions, such as control word, status word,

references and actual speed & torque. UDTs provide users

with an interface that enables them to add specific tag

descriptions into the dynamic datasets supported by ABB

low voltage AC and DC drives. It will map the EtherNet/IP or

ControlNet module to the User Defined Data Type providing

a seamless and simplified connection to the network.

Supported Profile Types

• ABB Drives

• ODVA

• Transparent (16-bit and 32-bit)

Benefits

• Reduce development time and simplify diagnostics with

pre-defined tag descriptions and data types

• Minimize commissioning cost

• Create consistent PLC code regardless of programmer

• Easily rename tag description to an installation-specific name

• Leverage modular programming to easily copy and paste

Add-On Instruction for additional drives

• Save time and money by re-using the same User Defined

Data Type for duplicate drives

• Enjoy the flexibility and versatility of ABB drives connected

to EtherNet/IP and ControlNet networks

AOI 2.0 Drive Control Emulation

This Add-on Instruction (AOI) is designed to be used in

places where the user doesn’t want to have to modify

the existing control code for Rockwell Drives. The AOIs

and UDTs are already setup to mimic the existing control

and status tags, so just find and replace the existing tags

with the newly created ABB tags and the existing RSLogix

5000 code will control the ABB drive seamlessly. Built in

scaling for customized data is available.

Supported Profile Types

• PF520 series

• PF750 series

More to come in future development

Benefits

• Benefit from pre-defined tag descriptions that mimic

tag descriptions in existing Rockwell drives

• Minimize commissioning cost

• Quickly replace existing drive with ABB without having

to rewrite PLC code

• Leverage modular programming to easily copy and

paste Add-On Instruction for additional drives

• Enjoy the flexibility and versatility of ABB drives

connected to EtherNet/IP and ControlNet network
