text: <s>[INST] Connecting a PowerFlex 525 Drive to a PanelView Plus Terminal via Embedded Ethernet/IP Quick Start Hi If you look at knowledgebase article QA52360 it discusses being able to connect and control a Powerflex 525 from a Panelview Plus without using a PLC It gives an example Factory Talk Studio .apa backup program with a screen I would like to use and have downloaded . But the article doesn't really cover the setup of the Drive or the Panelview to make this work . I am currently setting up a MicroLogix 1400 to control some PowerFlex 525 drives via Ethernet. However if I could get this Panelview to Powerflex direct connection working it would make things a lot easier since I plan to use EthernetIP only to gather drive status info and adjust command speed and I wouldn't have to rely on MSG commands from the Micrologic 1400 to get this info.. Has anyone done this before? The knowledgebase article QA52360 describes using N41 and N42 elements built into the Powerflex Embedded Ethernet card. If you look in the Powerflex 525 Embedded EtherNet/IP Adapter manual (Publication 520COM-UM001 ) In the C appendix if shows these N words but has no instructions how to access them from a Panelview Plus.. The example Factorytalk Studio backup they give you shows these N41 memory areas being accessed from object on their example screen, But it does not show how you would setup the Panelview communications setup to directly access a drive without a plc... This is what I need to find out .. I've tried setting up the communications to point to the test drive IP I have but it says that cannot be used so what am I missing ? Any help would be appreciated. [/INST] Never done this or heard of doing this but I would try going to communications setup and add a powerflex 525, give it that IP. \\n </s>
