Set up two IronHorse VFDs—one ACN and one ACG—for EtherNet/IP communication with a Productivity 1000 PLC. In this step‑by‑step tutorial, we cover both Explicit Messaging (ACN) and Implicit / I/O Messaging (ACG), including drive parameters, IP addressing, CIP instances, EDS configuration, and ladder logic examples.
You’ll see how to:
Configure Fieldbus control on both VFDs
Assign IP addresses and store network settings
Set up CIP assemblies (ACG 71/71)
Build explicit Get/Set messaging for ACN
Configure cyclic implicit I/O messaging for ACG
Test run commands, frequency/RPM reference, and feedback signals
Whether you're integrating IronHorse drives for the first time or improving your EtherNet/IP skills, this video walks you through every essential step.
