2 2 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) Before You Update Your System Before you update your controller or RSLogix 5 software to this revision, do the following preliminary actions: If: Your controller is connected to a DH-485 network. Then: Disconnect it from the DH-485 network before you update the firmware of the controller. If you update the firmware of a controller while it is connected to a DH-485 network, communication on the network may stop. We recommend that you use DH-485 communications as follows: If you update the firmware of a controller while it is connected to a DH-485 network, communication on the network may stop. To prevent this, disconnect the controller from the DH-485 network before you update the firmware of the controller. Logix5 controllers should be used on DH-485 networks only when you wish to add these controllers to an existing DH-485 network. For new applications with Logix5 controllers, DeviceNet, Ethernet, and ControlNet are the recommended networks. Corrected Anomalies This is the first release of DriveLogix573 firmware. Additional Memory Requirements This is the first release of DriveLogix573 firmware.

3 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) 3 Restrictions This firmware version has these restrictions: Restriction: Forcing is not supported between the PowerFlex 7S and DriveLogix Unsupported Motion Commands Description: The forcing values can be set for the controller inputs and outputs. However, these values will not be used by the Logix program nor will they be transmitted to the PowerFlex 7S. The following Logix Motion Instructions are not intended for use with DriveLogix and the PowerFlex 7S: Motion State (for 1756-MO2AE Only) MDO (Motion Direct Drive On) MDF (Motion Direct Drive Off) Power down banks of local I/O when the controller is powered down. Use fault routine to clear fault from local I/O which is generated when controller and I/O are powered down. Motion Configuration (for tuning SERCOS cards only) MAAT (Motion Apply Axis Tuning) MRAT (Motion Run Axis Tuning) MAHD (Motion Apply Hookup Diagnostics) MRHD (Motion Run Hookup Diagnostics) When powering down the controller (the host drive), also power down any banks of local I/O modules. Leaving additional banks of I/O modules powered on may result in major fault code 22 during the power-up process of the controller. When powering down the controller (the host drive) and I/O banks simultaneously, the controller will stay energized slightly longer because the drive s DC bus indirectly powers the controller. In some instances this generates a fault because the controller stays energized long enough to recognize a connection failure. Use a fault routine like the one below to clear this fault: GSV Get System Value Class Name PROGRAM Instance Name THIS Attribute Name MAJORFAULTRECORD Dest major_fault_record.timelow EQU 1 Equal Source A major_fault_record.type Source B 3 EQU Equal Source A major_fault_record.code Source B 16 MOV Move Source Dest major_fault_record.type Move Source MOV Dest major_fault_record.code EQU Equal Source A major_fault_record.code Source B 23 SSV 2 Set System Value Class Name PROGRAM Instance Name THIS Attribute Name MAJORFAULTRECORD Source major_fault_record.timelow (End) Irregular power cycles can affect the wall clock time. Irregular power cycles, such as brown outs, can affect the wall clock time. If you use the wall clock time for critical system timing, routinely synchronize the wall clock time to a master system clock using a GSV instruction.

4 4 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) Restriction: If you have a CompactFlash card set to restore on power up, you may need to reset the wallclock time. Do not change or delete files in the structure on a CompactFlash card. Controller may not support 4 packets/second. Description: If you use a CompactFlash card and have it set to restore on power up, you may need to reset the wallclock time. If maintaining an accurate wallclock time is crucial to your application, either disable the restore on power up feature or use a combination of GSV and SSV instructions to check the wallclock time and, if necessary, reset it to a more accurate time. If you use a PC card reader to view the CompactFlash card, do not change or delete any files in the structure on the CompactFlash card. Also, make sure the close the PC card reader session before removing the CompactFlash card to avoid corrupting files. In general, the DriveLogix573 controller can support 4 packets/second via the EtherNet/IP port. It is possible that in some applications with larger packet sizes, the controller might not be able to support 4 packets/second.

5 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) 5 Restriction: In a tag of a user-defined data type, an instruction may write past the end of an array Description: If you write too much data to an array that is within a user-defined data type, some instructions write beyond the array and into other members of the tag. Example 1: Instruction Stops at the End of the Array If the length is greater than the number of elements in the destination array the instruction stops at the end of the array. Example 2: Instruction Writes Beyond the Array If the length is greater than the number of elements in the destination array the instruction writes data beyond the end of the array into other members of the tag. Regardless of the length specified for the instruction, it stops writing if it reaches the end of the tag. The following instructions write beyond the array into other members of the tag: BSL BSR COP CPS DDT FBC FFL FFU FLL GSV LFL LFU SQL SRT SSV This restriction also applies to all previous revisions. To prevent writing beyond the limits of the destination array, make sure the length operand of the instruction is less than or equal to the number of elements in the array.

6 6 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) Installing EDS Files If you have RSLinx software, version 2.42 or greater, the most current EDS files were installed with the software. If you are using an older version of RSLinx software, you might need to install EDS files. You need EDS files for: 1E34D.eds for the DriveLogix573 controller 1C951.eds for the EtherNet/IP port 16C5C1.eds for the Backplane PowerFlex 7S AP DriveLg The EDS files are available on the CD for RSLogix 5 Enterprise Series software, version 13. The files are also available at: Hold Last State and User-Defined Safe State Not Supported When 1769 Compact I/O modules are used as local I/O modules in a DriveLogix573 system, the local I/O modules do not support the Hold Last State or User-Defined Safe State features, even though you can configure these options in the programming software. If a local I/O module fails such that its communication to the controller is lost, or if any module is disconnected from the system bus while under power, the controller will go into the fault mode. All outputs turn off when the system bus or any module faults. RSLogix 5 software creates tags for modules when you add them to the I/O configuration. The 1769 module tags define configuration (C) data type members which may include attributes for alternate outputs. DriveLogix573 does not enable local modules to use the alternate outputs. Do not configure the attributes listed below: For digital output modules: ProgToFaultEn ProgMode ProgValue FaultMode FaultValue For analog output modules: CHxProgToFaultEn CHxProgMode CHxFaultMode where CHx = the channel number Any 1769 Compact I/O modules used as remote I/O modules in a DriveLogix573 system do support the Hold Last State and User-Defined Safe State features.

7 DriveLogix 573 Controller (13.16) 7 Verify I/O Layout by Adding Words of Backplane Memory Used Each module in a DriveLogix573 system uses a set amount of backplane memory, in addition to the data that the module stores or transfers. Some modules require a considerable amount of backplane memory. Take this into account when designing your system because it affects how many modules a controller can support. Each DriveLogix573 controller supports 256, 16-bit words of backplane data. This table shows how many backplane words each module uses: Catalog number: Number of modules: Number of words used: 1769-IA8I IA IM IQ IQ IQ6XOW OA OA OB OB OB16P OB OV OW OW8I OW IF IF IF4XOF OF OF8C OF8V IR IT HSC 187 (35 words input, 34 words output, 118 words configuration) 1769-SDN 76 plus total words in scanlist system overhead (per controller) Total Words Required: (1) (1) The total words required cannot exceed 256 words. Total number:
