Creating Control Tags for Motor Current etc....

Hello friends! I am new here!

First question is:

I am trying to make a display to control an agitator using a Pflex 525 and I do not see a control tag that will show me the output current of my drive.

There was a previous 525 motor where this was accomplished. The K_9000 motor has this control tag but how do I know it is connected to the 525 actual output current output?

Here are the two displays, K-9000 is my reference, M-3800 is what I a constructing.


These are the control tags for K_9000 which is a 525 VFD


Here are the control tags for M_3800


How do I create a control tag that shows me the M_3800 output current? How did the guy before me do it for the K_9000?

If you are controlling the drive, or just want status, over a communications network, open up the drive properties in the controller organizer, hit the "Change" button under "Module Definition" on the first tab.

From there, you can select up to 4 additional "Input Data" (feedback) values, and 4 "Output Data" (command) values to be read and written to the drive.

Note that you will probably have to do this offline and re-download the program, as these are actual changes to the module (drive) definition.

This was shown and answered in your last thread on the subject. Rdrast has referred to the same procedure. In your last post, the actual drive feedback was scaled by dividing actual by 100 and put into tag K_9000_hmi_current
