Chapter 1
Getting Started
The PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6 and 20-HIM-C6S HIMs provide a communication
interface to configure and monitor PowerFlex 753 and PowerFlex 755 AC drives
and their connected peripherals. These HIMs are also backward compatible with
all PowerFlex 7-Class drives, but with limited functionality.
HIM Types
At the time of publication, the following enhanced PowerFlex 7-Class HIMs are
available.
Features
The enhanced PowerFlex 20-HIM-A6 and 20-HIM-C6S HIMs provide the
following benefits over the more basic PowerFlex 7-Class HIMs (catalog
numbers 20-HIM-A3, 20-HIM-A5, 20-HIM-C3S, and 20-HIM-C5S):
• Full-numeric keypad with fully-integrated navigation capability to more
easily configure and monitor the drive and its connected peripherals.
• Better keypad touch response and improved tactile feel to provide more
gratifying, error-free data entry.
• More intuitive access and new menu structures that increase HIM
operating efficiency.
• Simplified custom name assignments for drive/peripherals (for example,
Pump 1) to reduce required key presses.
