Rules for wiring with DRIVE-CLiQ

Rules apply for wiring components with DRIVE-CLiQ. A distinction is made between binding
DRIVE-CLiQ rules, which must be unconditionally observed and recommended rules, which
should then be maintained so that the topology, generated offline in the STARTER
commissioning tool, no longer has to be changed.
The maximum number of DRIVE-CLiQ components and the possible wiring type depend on
the following factors:
● The binding DRIVE-CLiQ wiring rules
● The number and type of activated drives and functions on the Control Unit in question
● The computing power of the Control Unit in question
● The set processing and communication cycles
Below you will find the binding wiring rules and some other recommendations as well as a
few sample topologies for DRIVE-CLiQ wiring.
The components used in these examples can be removed, replaced with others or
supplemented. If components are replaced by another type or additional components are
added, then the SIZER configuring tool should be used to check this topology.
If the actual topology does not match the topology created offline using the STARTER
commissioning tool, the offline topology must be changed accordingly before it is
downloaded.

DRIVE-CLiQ diagnostics

DRIVE-CLiQ diagnostics
Using the DRIVE-CLiQ diagnostics, you can check the connections and cables of DRIVE-
CLiQ connections. For data transfer errors, to localize the faulted connection, the error
counter in the PHY blocks involved can be evaluated.
In addition to the error counter showing all errors, detailed diagnostics can be carried out for
the individual connections. For selected connections, the number of errors is determined for
a time interval that can be specified and made traceable using a parameter. As a result of
the interconnectability, you can record when data transfer errors occur and correlate them
with other events in the drive.
