text: <s>[INST] Powerflex 523 Ready and Digital In Feedback Summary: Ready and Digital In Status not working I have 52 Powerflex 523's on an Ethernet network using 523-E2P modules and DLR for the network. The drives are connected to an EN2TR module on the Control Logix Rack. PLC is L62 V20.12 EN2TR module is V4.4 Powerflex Add On Profile is PF5ClassAOP V1.03 The safety circuit is low level, Enable relays from the E-stop circuit tied to terminals 11 & 1 and set to enable. The problem I am having is the Ready feedback to the PLC is not working correctly. When I lose the enable circuit, I still have the input that the drive is Ready. Also, the feedback for Digital Inputs 1-4 are not working either to the PLC. The drive functions correctly and is seeing the inputs, they are just not sent correctly to the PLC. The drive will not run without the enable relay energized. [/INST] Have been finding a number of status bits oin the 520 series drives not working properly. Was told that some of this should be fixed by the next firmware release, sometime in December. What torques me about this new series is that one of the desirable features is the built in safety-off function in the 525, You would think that this function would also be available in the 523. Why would I want to purchase/use this drive, when it doesn't give me a control/safety advantage. I can get the same functionality with the PF4/PF40's. William \\n </s>
