14.12 System rules, sampling times and DRIVE-CLiQ wiring
● The connection to the Control Unit is obtained from the PROFIBUS address of the CX/NX
(10 → X100, 11 → X101, 12 → X102, 13 → X103, 14 → X104, 15 → X105).
● It is not permitted to combine SIMOTION Master Control Units and SINUMERIK Slave
Control Units.
● It is not permitted to combine SINUMERIK Master Control Units and SIMOTION Slave
Control Units.

Recommended interconnection rules

The following recommended rules should be observed for the DRIVE-CLiQ wiring:
General
● The following applies to all DRIVE-CLiQ components with the exception of the Control Unit:
The DRIVE-CLiQ sockets Xx00 are DRIVE-CLiQ inputs (Uplink), the other DRIVE-CLiQ
sockets are outputs (Downlink).
– The DRIVE-CLiQ cable from the Control Unit should be connected to DRIVE-CLiQ
– The DRIVE-CLiQ connections between the power units should each be connected from
Line Modules
● A single Line Module should be connected directly to the Control Unit (recommended
DRIVE-CLiQ socket: X100).
– Several Line Modules should be connected in series.
– For Active Line Modules of the Chassis-2 format with more than 4 modules connected in
Motor Modules
● No more than 6 Motor Modules should be connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ line on the Control
Unit (including with vector, U/f control).
● Motor Modules should be connected directly to the Control Unit in vector control.
– If DRIVE-CLiQ socket X100 is already assigned to a Line Module, DRIVE-CLiQ socket
– Several Motor Modules should be connected in a line.
– For Motor Modules of the Chassis-2 format with more than 4 modules connected in
● In servo control, Motor Modules should be connected to a DRIVE-CLiQ line together with
the Line Module.
– Several Motor Modules should be connected in a line.
– If there is already a Line Module present, the first Motor Module should be connected in
– If there is no Line Module present, the first Motor Module should be connected directly
