Can you use the discover feature in 5000 to add the AENT and it's modules?

In the last picture, you should be able to click on the Change... button and select fw 7 then download to the PLC again.

Not to sound obtuse, but have you gone to Phoenix's website and downloaded application notes, eds files, etc.? Have you set an IP address in the device?

Generally, the vendor will supply there own set of motion AOIs.

VFD #1 and do a firmware upgrade.  Because it truly has new components. By the same token, VFD #2 was recently tested for working condition.

I could be corrected, but the source protection you are talking about is only for version 20 and later.  I presume you want to change the program for use with v17.  To do so you will need to open the original in v20, turn off the source protection in the security tab of the controller properties and save to a new name. Then change the controller to v17 and it should convert the program.

Also remember that the order of the bits in INTs and DINTs are reversed.

Check to see that it's seated properly.  If problem still exists, then replace.

The was a change between version 20 and 21.  For v20 and older, you would use the Logix CPU Security Tool.  For v21 and newer, you use theFactory Talk Security via Factory Talk Administrative Console with an adminsistrative account username and password and the Security tab of the Controller Properties based on the Logical Name. There's an entire manual to download and read to setup Factory Talk Security with Factory Talk Administrative Console.

Suggest you download and read the ethernet function manual IB(NA)-0600628ENG-B. Understand that by default the drive parameters are set to be controlled by hardwired inputs and outputs and the HIM (human Interface Module).  To control via ethernet, you must parameterize the drive to accept control and frequency reference via the ethernet.   Unfortunately, I have no experience with Beijer PLCs or any knowledge of their capabilities and communication protocols.  I saw a resource regarding comms via Modbus TCP and CANopen.   Once the PLC and VFD are talking, then write code to read and write to the VFD.  Different platforms use different terminology, but most use what is called implicit or explicit forms to read and write to the VFD.  You'll need to determine what the Beijer capabilities are.  Maybe find an example code at either Beijer or Mitsubishi to help you.

Why is the DB so much hotter than the Machine #1? Also disconcerted about the DC Bus voltage difference. What is the result is you change the wiring to omit the DB thermostats signal?

Haven't looked at RBAC.  I do use FT Security for a specific customer (150+ sites) because the process is patented.  I've locked it down such that you can't even open the ACD unless you have the specific VM Image (i.e. computer name and ability to login to FT).

How did you configure your RSLinx Communications Driver?  Which one did you use?  Is your computer's NIC setup in the same subnet as the PLC?

If this is not applicable, then ignore me.  Is the 1769-IT6 compatible or does it have to be a 1762?  I presume that you found the module when offline with the 1500.

Your earlier picture shows the MNet module is already inhibited, so good call on removing it.
