text: <s>[INST] Powerflex 523 and connected components Summary: Connecting to 523 through connected componentsThis may be a simple question but i can seem to make it work. Is here a way to connect to a Powerflex 523 drive through Connected Components Workbench using the USB port on the control module? [/INST] No, the only way to connect live to the drive with CCW is to use the 1203-USB while the drive is powered. However, you can pre-configure you program in CCW, then export the file to a .pf5 format from CCW. Then plug your computer into the drive via the USB port in the back of the control module and import the .pf5 file to the drive. Once this is done, your drive should be programmed and ready for testing.
