Rockwell Automation Publication CC-QS034C-EN-P - March 2015 7
Preface
About This Publication
This quick start provides instructions for implementing a PowerFlex® Compact-class (523, 525, 4, 4M, 40, 40P, 400) AC
drive speed-control application on Modbus by using the Connected Components Workbench™ software and a Micro800®
programmable logic controller (PLC).
To help with the design and installation of your system, application files and other information are provided on the
Connected Components Accelerator Toolkit (CCAT). The CCAT provides bills of materials (BOM), CAD drawings for
panel layout and wiring, control programs, human-machine interface (HMI) screens, and more. With these tools and the
built-in best-practices design, you are free to focus on the design of your machine control and not on design overhead tasks.
The CCAT is available on the Connected Components Accelerator Toolkit DVD, publication CC-QR002, or through
the Rockwell Automation Software Download and Registration System (SDRS) site at
