8.8 DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces X100 to X103
Properties of the DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces
The SIMATIC Drive Controller has four DRIVE-CLiQ interfaces. The components of the
SINAMICS S120 drive system including the motors and encoders are connected over the
common DRIVE-CLiQ interface.
DRIVE-CLiQ has the following properties:
• Automatic recognition of the components by the SIMATIC Drive Controller
• Uniform interfaces on all components
• Consistent diagnostics down to the components
• Consistent service down to the components
• Each DRIVE-CLiQ interface has 24 V/450 mA for connecting encoders and measuring
systems.
Note
The DRIVE-CLiQ cable with its 24 V supply is only used for the components that require it
(for example motors with DRIVE-CLiQ interface).
Rules for DRIVE-CLiQ wiring
Rules apply for wiring components with DRIVE-CLiQ. A distinction is made between
mandatory DRIVE-CLiQ rules that must be observed and recommended rules.
