General Precautions Qualified Personnel
Personal Safety
ATTENTION: Only qualified personnel familiar with the PowerFlex 700S Drive
and associated machinery should plan or implement the installation, start-up
and subsequent maintenance of the system. Failure to comply may result in
personal injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: To avoid an electric shock hazard, verify that the voltage on the bus
capacitors has discharged before performing any work on the drive. Measure the
DC bus voltage at the Power Terminal Block by measuring between the +DC and
–DC terminals, between the +DC terminal and the chassis, andbetween the -DC
terminal and the chassis. The voltage must be zero for all three measurements.
ATTENTION: Hazard of personal injury or equipment damage exists when using
bipolar input sources. Noise and drift in sensitive input circuits can cause
unpredictable changes in motor speed and direction. Use speed command
parameters to help reduce input source sensitivity.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. DPI or SCANport host
products must not be directly connected together via 1202 cables.
Unpredictable behavior can result if two or more devices are connected in this
manner.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameters 365 [Fdbk
LsCnfg Pri]…394 [VoltFdbkLossCnfg] let you determine the action of the drive
in response to operating anomalies. Precautions should be taken to ensure that
the settings of the parameters do not create hazards of injury or equipment
damage.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameters 383 [SL

Chapter 1
Drive Start-Up
This chapter provides the information necessary to start up the PowerFlex® 700S
Phase II drive.
Drive Start-Up Checklist ❏A Human Interface Module (HIM) is required to complete this Start-Up
procedure, which uses the Assisted Start routine. The Assisted Start routine
prompts you for information that is needed to start up a drive for most
applications, such as line and motor data, commonly adjusted parameters and
I/O settings. The Assisted Start routine also performs autotuning procedures.
See Figure 1 on page 14 for a flow chart of the Assisted Start routine.
❏A HIM must be installed in Drive Peripheral
Interface (DPI) Port 1 or 2. If a HIM is not
installed, a remote device should be used to
start-up the drive. Refer to Human Interface
Module Overview on page 151 for more
information on using the PowerFlex 7-Class
(DPI) HIM. Refer to the Enhanced PowerFlex
7-Class HIM User Manual, publication
20HIM-UM001, for information on using the
Enhanced HIM (if installed).
❏3-wire control is the default (and
recommended) mode of use for the Assisted
Start routine. In this case, the drive will start
when the HIM “Start” key is pressed and stop
when the HIM “Stop” key is pressed. If the drive
is configured for 2-wire control, the HIM
installed on the drive will also act as a 2-wire device. In 2-wire mode, the drive
will start when the HIM “Start” key is pressed and stop when the HIM “Start”
key is released.
❏Analog and Digital I/O parameter values may be modified when using the
Assisted Start routine.

Programming and Parameters
This chapter provides a complete listing of the PowerFlex® 700S Phase II drive
parameters. The parameters can be programmed (viewed/edited) using a Human
Interface Module (HIM). Refer to Human Interface Module Overview on page
151 for information on using the HIM to view and edit parameters. As an
alternative, programming can also be performed using DriveTools™ software and a
personal computer.
Firmware Compatibility PowerFlex 700S firmware revision 6.xxx and earlier can only be used with control
boards that were designed to operate with 6.xxx or earlier firmware, series A con-
trol boards. PowerFlex 700S firmware revision firmware 7.xxx and greater can
only be used with control boards that were designed to operate with 7.xxx or
greater, series B control boards.
If you attempt to download a firmware revision that is not compatible with the
control board on the drive, a series of error messages appear. If these error
messages appear, confirm the revision of the control board, and select a firmware
revision download that is compatible with the control board version.

Chapter 2 Programming and Parameters
About Parameters To configure a drive module to operate in a specific way, certain drive parameters
may have to be configured appropriately. Three types of parameters exist:
•ENUMParameters
These parameters allow a selection from two or more items. The LCD
HIM will display a text message for each item.
•BitParameters
These parameters have individual bits associated with features or
conditions. If the bit is 0, the feature is off or the condition is false. If the
bit is 1, the feature is on or the condition is true.
•NumericParameters
These parameters have a single numeric value, for example, “0.1 Volts”.
The example tables on the following page illustrate how each parameter type is
presented in this manual.

The controller-drive interface (as defined by the Controller Communication Format) sets bits to enable and disable various functions and algorithms. Bits that are changed here are reflected in Par
152 [Applied LogicCmd].
Note: Bits 4 through 9 in Logic Command are NOT recalled from Control EEprom. They will be cleared upon drive powerup or following an EEprom recall operation.

Chapter 2 Programming and Parameters
How Parameters are
Organized
DriveExecutive™ programming software displays parameters in “Linear List” or
“File - Group - Parameter” format. Viewing the parameters in “File - Group -
Parameter” format simplifies programming by grouping parameters that are used
for similar functions. There are twelve files. Each file is divided into multiple
groups of parameters. Each illustration below contains a list of the Parameters
contained in each Group for each File.
