Control of multiple drives 477Control of multiple drivesWhat this chapter containsThe chapter describes how to control several drives with one control panel.Connecting multiple drives to a control panel1. Connect the control panel (A) to the first drive (B) in the panel bus.2. Connect the first drive (C) to the second (D), the second to the third, and so on, by daisy chaining RJ-45 leads.ACB DThis picture shows a panel bus example with ACS880-01 drives.
48 Control of multiple drivesSelecting drive menuIn the Options menu, select Select drive which lists all the drives connected to the panel bus and shows their current status. If panel bus is not enabled, only one drive is shown.In the panel bus, If the connection to the currently selected drive fails, Select drive menu is shown with the other drive list.In the Select drive menu, any drives to which the connection is lost are shown in dimmed text.Selecting a driveIf there are multiple drives connected to the same panel bus, you can select which drive to control with the control panel.1. In the Options menu, select Select drive to open a list of connected drives.2. Use and to move the cursor. When a drive is highlighted, the green LED on the drive blinks for one second.3. Press (Select) to change control to the highlighted drive.Panel features with multiple drivesPanel viewsIn a panel bus configuration, the control panel communicates with one drive at a time. Any information shown on the control panel, such as the status bar or signals in the Home view pertain to the currently selected drive. Similarly, the control panel stores data to its memory only from the currently selected drive.Changes to the Home view configuration and any parameter changes are saved in the drive. They can be transferred to other drives using the backup feature.You can view information on other drives in the panel bus and switch to another drive in the Select drive menu.The Help pageThe content of the Help page is drive-specific, and it always refers to the currently selected drive.
Control of multiple drives 49Graph dataThe data for the graph format in the Home view is stored in the control panel only for the selected drive. Upon changing the selected drive, any stored graph data is discarded, and graph data collection begins for the new drive.History graphs and all related settings (signal selection, horizontal timescale) are saved in the drive, and the History graphs menu shows always the graphs for the currently selected drive. Data collection takes places independently in each drive.BackupsThe control panel can store backups from different drives. Conversely, backups from a drive can be uploaded to another drive.Customized contentEach drive in the panel bus has its own custom content because all the customizations are stored in the drive.AssistantsAssistants are drive-specific, which means that different drives in the panel bus can have different assistants. However, the assistant framework is the same for all assistants in all drives.Faults and warnings with multiple drivesFaults and warnings in the currently selected driveFaults and warnings in the currently selected drive are shown as normal.Faults and warnings in other drivesFaults in the other drives in the panel bus appear as remote faults.Faults that require a restart look like any other remote faults. They are shown normally if you switch to the drive in which the fault has occurred.In the Fault view, the keys have the following functions:•Press (Hide) to go back to the previous view. The fault view does not reappear as with regular faults.•Press (Switch) to connect to the faulted drive.Only active warnings in the selected drive are shown in the control panel. To view warnings in another drive, you must select that drive in the Select drive menu.
