1. Introduction
The RAPIEnet (Real-time Automation Protocols for Industrial Ethernet) communication module provides
RAPIEnet network communication for the SV-iS7 inverter. RAPIEnet is a communication protocol compliant
with IEC 61158 Type 21 and IEC 62439 RRP (Ring-based Redundancy Protocol). The RAPIEnet
communication module provides full-duplex data transfer which enables real-time communication without
transmission collisions.
Using a RAPIEnet connection, the iS7 inverter can be controlled and monitored via a PLC sequence
program or any master PLC module. In addition, RAPIEnet is easy to connect, enabling faster installation
and easier maintenance.

11.High-speed Link
The high-speed link is a communication mode between the communication modules. The High speed-link
is activated when the high-speed link parameters are set. In this mode, data can be transferred by setting
[COM-30] (number of data transmission), [COM-50] (number of data reception), [COM-11] (transmission
cycle), [COM-31]–[COM-38] (data transmission addresses), and [COM-51]–[COM-58] (data reception
addresses). Because the high-speed link uses the Subnet Broad service, it may affect other communication
modules on the same network.
(1) Setting the High-speed link in the XG5000 Program (PLC Software)
For an iS7 RAPIEnet communication module to communicate with a PLC system, the XGL-EIMT
(RAPIEnet I/F module) is required. To understand the module’s operation, read the user manual supplied
with the XGL-EIMT module before reading these instructions. To configure the PLC’s communication
settings, the XG5000 program (XG5000_V3.68_20131008) must be installed. The program can be
downloaded from the LS ELECTRIC website (www.lselectric.co.kr/support/download-center/).
Run the XG5000 program and click [Tools] ▶ [Network Manager]. When the XG-PD program is activated,
click one of the high-speed link entries (ex. [High-speed link 01], [High-speed link 02], etc.) under [Project
window] on the left side of the screen. Locate the device that is connected to the PLC in the [Project
window] and then click on the [Block] entry under it. The window below will open on the screen.
①High-speed Link Data Transmission Settings
Mode: Send (Transmission)
Block number: In send (transmission) mode, the PLC does not allow activation of the data input
window for the RAPIEnet module station ID [COM-07] (target station ID). Therefore, the *target
station ID must be configured through a block number.
Read area: Enter the address where the transmitted data will be saved.
Read area Word size: Set the number of data transmission. The setting must match the number
of data reception (set at [COM-50]).
After the changes are made, click [Online] > [Write Parameter] in the XG-PD program. Then, select

iS7RAPIEnet Option Manual
19
the module to apply the settings to and run it. After parameter writing is completed, run [Enable Link].
②High-speed link Data Reception Settings
Mode: Receive
Station number: Enter the target station ID.
Block number: If the iS7 RAPIEnet communication module is in use, enter a block number that is
identical to the communication module station ID.
Save area: Enter the address where the received data will be written to.
Save area Word size: Set the number of data reception. The setting must match the number of
data transmission (set at [COM-30]).
After the changes are made, click [Online] > [Write Parameter] in the XG-PD program. Then, select
the module to apply the settings to and run it. After parameter writing is completed, run [Enable Link].
12. P2P Communication
P2P (peer-to-peer) is another communication mode available for communication modules that sends and
receives data based on P2P parameters. Using station IDs, this mode enables data to be saved to or read
from a particular area of the target device when specific events occur.
(1) Setting P2P Communication in the XG5000 Program (PLC Software)
For an iS7 RAPIEnet communication module to communicate with a PLC system, the XGL-EIMT
(RAPIEnet I/F module) is required. To understand the module’s operation, read the user manual supplied
with the XGL-EIMT module before reading these instructions. To configure the PLC’s communication
settings, the XG5000 program (XG5000_V3.68_20131008) must be installed. The program can be
downloaded from the LS ELECTRIC website (www.lselectric.co.kr/support/download-center/).
Run the XG5000 program and click [Tools] ▶ [Network Manager]. When the XG-PD program is activated,
click one of the P2P entries (ex. [P2P 01], [P2P 02], etc.) under [Project window] on the left side of the
screen. Locate the device that is connected to the PLC in the [Project window] and then click on the
[P2P Block] entry under it. The window below will open on the screen.
