The P_PF755 (PowerFlex® 755 drive) object is used to operate one variable-speed
motor by using a PowerFlex 755 AC variable frequency drive in various modes
and monitoring for fault conditions. The global objects and following faceplate
are examples of the graphical interface tools for this Add-On Instruction.
Required Files Add-On Instructions are reusable code objects that contain encapsulated logic
that can streamline implementing your system. This lets you create your own
instruction set for programming logic as a supplement to the instruction set
provided natively in the ControlLogix® firmware. An Add-On Instruction is
defined once in each controller project, and can be instantiated multiple times in
your application code as needed.
Controller File
The P_PF755_3_5-00_RUNG.L5X rung import must be imported into the
controller project to be used in the controller configuration. The service release
number (boldfaced) can change as service revisions are created.
Visualization Files
This Add-On Instruction has associated visualization files that provide a
common user interface. These files can be downloaded from the Product
Compatibility and Download Center at
http://www.rockwellautomation.com/rockwellautomation/support/pcdc.page.
IMPORTANT The visualization file dependencies require Process Library content imports to
occur in a specific order as reflected in the following tables:
• Images
• Global Objects
• Standard Displays
• HMI Tags
• Macros
Images are external graphic files that can be used in displays. They must be
imported for FactoryTalk View to make use of them.
When PNG files are imported, they are renamed by FactoryTalk View with
a .bmp file extension, but retain a .png format.

Controller Code This section describes the parameter references for this Add-On Instruction.
InOut parameters are used to link the Add-On Instruction to external tags that
contain necessary data for the instruction to operate. These external tags must be
of the data type shown.
TIP The preceding User-defined Types (UDTs) and the Array tag containing the list
of PowerFlex 755 fault codes and descriptions are included in the RUNG import
that brings in the P_PF755 Add-On Instruction. See the programming
example on page 29 for details.
The following figure shows the drive fault table tags that are in each template.
Each fault code list provide pre-configured fault codes and descriptions for a
given drive family.
For a complete list of fault codes for the PowerFlex 755 Drive, refer to the
PowerFlex 750-series AC Drives Programming Manual, publication 750-PM001.
Cfg_IOFaultAckReqd IOFault.Cfg_AckReqd
Cfg_FailToStartSeverity INT FailToStart.Cfg_Severity 1000 These parameters determine the severity of each alarm that gauges the color and
symbol that are used to indicate alarm status on the faceplate and global object.
Cfg_FailToStopSeverity FailToStop.Cfg_Severity 1000 The following are valid values:
Cfg_IntlkTripSeverity IntlkTrip.Cfg_Severity 250 1…250 = Low
251…500 = Medium
Cfg_DriveFaultSeverity DriveFault.Cfg_Severity 1000
501…750 = High
Cfg_IOFaultSeverity IOFault.Cfg_Severity 1000 751…1000 = Urgent
IMPORTANT: These severity priorities drive only the indication on the global
object and faceplate. The Alarm and Events definition severity drives the color
and symbol that is used on the alarm banner and alarm summary as well the
value returned by the FactoryTalk Alarm and Events software display commands.
Cfg_MinSpdRef REAL 0.0 Minimum speed reference in engineering units (for limiting).
Cfg_MaxSpdRef REAL 60.0 Maximum speed reference in engineering units (for limiting).
Cfg_SpeedEUMin REAL 0.0 Speed reference and feedback minimum in engineering units (for scaling).
Cfg_SpeedEUMax REAL 60.0 Speed reference and feedback maximum in engineering units (for scaling).
Configuration parameters that are arrayed, string, or structure data types cannot
be configured as parameters for Add-On Instructions. Configuration parameters
of these types appear as local tags to the Add-On Instruction. Local tags can be
configured through the HMI faceplates or in Studio 5000 Logix Designer®
application by opening the Instruction Logic of the Add-On Instruction instance
and then opening the Data Monitor on a local tag. These parameters cannot be
modified by using controller logic or Logix Designer application export/import
functionality.
Operations This section describes the primary operations for Add-On Instructions.
Modes
This instruction uses the following standard modes, which are implemented by
using an embedded P_Mode Add-On Instruction.
Table 11 - Modes
Mode Description
Operator The Operator owns control of the device. Operator commands (OCmd_) and Operator settings
(OSet_) from the HMI are accepted.
Program Program logic owns control of the device. Program commands (PCmd_) and Program settings
(PSet_) are accepted.
Override Priority logic owns control of the device and supersedes Operator and Program control. Override
Inputs (Inp_OvrdCmd and other Inp_OvrdXxxx values) are accepted. If so configured,
bypassable interlocks and permissives are bypassed.
Maintenance Maintenance owns control of the device and supersedes Operator, Program, and Override
control. Operator commands and settings from the HMI are accepted. Bypassable interlocks and
permissives are bypassed, and device timeout checks are not processed.
Hand Hardwired logic or other logic outside the instruction owns control of the device. The instruction
tracks the state of the device for bumpless transfer back to one of the other modes.
No Mode The device is disabled and has no owner because the EnableIn input is false. The main
instruction Logic routine is not being scanned. See Execution section for more information on
EnableInFalse processing.
IMPORTANT Instructions with Cfg_OperKeep and Cfg_ProgKeep keep some aspects of the
device operation with the operator or program regardless of whether the main
mode is Program or Operator mode.
Alarms
This instruction uses the following alarms, which are implemented by using
embedded P_Alarm and P_Gate Add-On Instructions.
Simulation
You must set the Inp_Sim parameter in the controller to ‘1’ to enable simulation.
You can also use Cfg_SimRampT to set the time (in seconds) to ramp the speed
feedback.
When you have finished in simulation, set the Inp_Sim parameter in the
controller to ‘0’ to return to normal operation.
Execution
Condition Description
EnableIn False (false rung) Processing for EnableIn False (false rung) is handled the
same as if the drive were Disabled by Command. The drive
outputs are de-energized and the drive is shown as
disabled on the HMI.
Powerup (prescan, first scan) Processing of modes and alarms on Prescan and Powerup
is handled by the embedded P_Mode and P_Alarm
Add-On Instructions. See their specifications for details.
On Powerup, the drive is treated as if it had been
Commanded to Stop.
Postscan (SFC Transition) No SFC Postscan logic is provided.
Programming Example This example uses the P_PF755 instruction to control the motor of a planetary
mixer in a concrete batch plant.
In the drive command word, the Add-On Instruction uses bits .0 through .5 and
does not use the rest of the bits in the 'Out' reference parameter in the InOut
structure. These unused bit are available for your application to use.
Bits used by
Add-On Instruction.
Follow these steps to import the P_PF755 rung into your project.
5. On the Import rungs dialog box, select the P_PF755 instruction and click
Import.
During the import process, you can name the tags for the routine in the
Import Configuration dialog box.
6. Click Tags in the Import Content tree and type the names of the variables
that match your process and the drive name in the Final Name column.
Your ladder logic routine now looks like the example. Observe that the tag
names and your drive's name are automatically placed in the instruction.
12. Repeat step 9 and step 10 until you have added all DataLinks.
The required DataLinks to add to your project are:
• Torque Current Feedback (Par 5)
• Output Current (Par 7)
• Output Power (Par 9)
• Elapsed MWH (Par 13)
• Elapsed Runtime (Par 15)
• Speed Units (Par 300)
• Predictive Maintenance Status (Par 469)
• Start Inhibits (Par 933)
• Drive Status 2 (Par 936)
• Drive Overload Count (Par 940)
• Drive Temperature (C) (Par 944)
• Last Fault Code (Par 951)
• Fault Status A (Par 952)
• Fault Status B (Par 953)
The last two datalinks are not used by this instruction and are available for
your application.
Display Elements The P_PF755 instruction uses the same HMI display elements that are used for
the Variable Speed Drive (P_VSD) instruction.
A display element (global object) is created once and can be referenced multiple
times on multiple displays in an application. When changes are made to the
original (base) object, the instantiated copies (reference objects) are
automatically updated. Use of global objects, in conjunction with tag structures
in the ControlLogix system, aid consistency and save engineering time.

If the object is configured to have permissive and interlock objects (for example,
Cfg_HasIntlkObj is true), the permissive and interlock indicators become
buttons that open the faceplates of the source objects used as a permissive or
interlock (often this is a P_Intlk interlock or P_Perm permissive object). If the
object is not configured in this way, the permissive/interlock icons are indicators
only.
The Operator tab also has a button to open the Restart Inhibit faceplate if the
drive is configured to use the P_ResInh object (Cfg_HasResInh = 1). When the
object is not configured to have an P_ResInh instruction, the Restart Inhibit
button is not displayed.
The Operator tab also has a button to open the Runtime faceplate if the drive is
configured to use the P_RunTime object (Cfg_HasRunTime = 1). When the
object is not configured to have an P_RunTime instruction, the Runtime button
is not displayed.
