Control of multiple drives
What this chapter contains
The chapter describes how to control several drives with one control panel.
Connecting multiple drives to a control panel
1. 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.
This picture shows a panel bus example with ACS880-01 drives.
48 Control of multiple drives
Selecting drive menu
In 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 drive
If 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

Panel features with multiple drives
 Panel views
In 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 page
The content of the Help page is drive-specific, and it always refers to the currently
selected drive.
Control of multiple drives 49
 Graph data
The 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.
 Backups
The control panel can store backups from different drives. Conversely, backups from
a drive can be uploaded to another drive.
 Customized content
Each drive in the panel bus has its own custom content because all the
customizations are stored in the drive.
 Assistants
Assistants 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 drive
Faults and warnings in the currently selected drive are shown as normal.
 Faults and warnings in other drives
Faults in the other drives in the panel bus appear
as remote faults.

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.
