**10:58 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354297994259):** I'm out at SMR
I changed the controller from a L330ER to a L320ER as there as plenty of memory room.
For the tank fill control program, the pump ready signal to look for SCADA Auto as a condition for Pump ready.
I downloaded the program from the Studio 5000 project to the newly installed Powerflex 70 drive and it seems to tell it to run but it does not.
**10:59 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354346929119):** newly installed PF70?
**10:59 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354363554029):** Kevin, we have the startup Thursday, I have a comms outage I have to be present for at Cambria tomorrow.
**10:59 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354377282819):** we will have to confirm all the parameters.
**10:59 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354380076239):** I got a warranty replacement for the PF70 that was faulting, electricraft replaced it
**11:00 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354409507279):** I pulled up the program and downloaded the config so I expected that it should work. Well 5 does, 6 does not
**11:00 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354449024079):** The injection pumps are to be replaced tomorrow. They are sitting next to me
**11:01 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354471898209):** the PLC program? we could pull the parameters from well 5 and do a compare against well 6.
**11:01 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354475860989):** i would do that using drivetools
**11:02 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354533084979):** @Kevin would you be available wednesday to help me get the VFD for the well pump operating for the startup Thursday? If tomorrow is better, I just won't be on site is all.
This is last minute so I don't expect you to drop everything, just checking my options.
**11:02 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354544472229):** Is drivetools an AB thing?
**11:02 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354560528579):** a rockwell software
**11:02 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354571308779):** it could probably be done with CCW i think
**11:02 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354574732469):** i like drivetools
**11:03 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354587376899):** i may have the installer handy let me look
**11:03 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354590375439):** strange, I've never heard of it, they are pushing CCW now
**11:04 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354640957639):** used to be called drive executive
**11:04 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354669748579):** There is a conflict between studio and drive well 5

**11:05 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354721503139):** I expected those to be correlated. if Kevin made changes on the drive and didn't correlate them to the studio project we dont have those parameters documented, I'll need him to do that again I suppose
**11:05 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354745160479):** I didn't correlate them, I don't want to overwrite the wrong thing
**11:06 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354794212979):** it may have been me last working on them.. when i set up hand operation
**11:06 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354813162189):** i would say that the physical drive has the correct paramemters
**11:07 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354826961489):** i say that with about 90% confidence
**11:07 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354837142429):** copy that. I just grabbed them via CCW
**11:07 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354853177139):** i would connect with these drivetools, and safe the current config in the drive for well 5
**11:07 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354856462369):** before we do anything
**11:07 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354875529309):** or ccw
**11:08 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354889358439):** That's done now
**11:08 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354907872529):** i think safe to correlate to the physical drive.
**11:08 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757354913336449):** ok
**11:18 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757355530399119):** I compared both drives by hand and now W6 works
**11:19 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757355540601229):** sweet!!
**11:19 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757355557934109):** wait kind of
**11:19 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757355566775679):** i got ahead of myself, its stuck at 30 hz
**11:20 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757355611648159):** gotta be one of those speed reference parameters
**11:40 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757356838097439):**

**11:42 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757356969010459):** I set minimum speed to 35 to make sure it wasn't the PAX object limiting that way
**11:44 [Mason Radke](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357059315939):** i wish i had time to hop on and look around, but im doing a startup right now. if you connect with CCW you may be able to see the speed reference source while its running 30hz. we will want to make sure its looking at the network
**11:44 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357086393379):** Right. Thanks for your help so far. We have a couple days to figure this out
**11:45 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357105844649):** At least we know the drive paramters are identical now
**11:53 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357629666119):** The speed was dictated by the mininum speed in the VFD parameters, but that's not how it should work. Just documenting this for @Kevin
I changed minimum speed to 40 hz and the drive went up to 40Hz. The program was released to PID since the flow exceeded the release to PID flow setpoint.
**11:55 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357717604239):** Updated ACD file

**11:56 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757357802908469):** All the network gear was errored out, I had to reset the modem and the stridelinx and then everything came back
**17:57 [Kevin](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757379437459179):** @andy I'm available tomorrow afternoon if you still need me. Looks like you got it fixed though
**18:59 [andy](https://slack.com/archives/C08NFJSU753/p1757383193049749):** I didn’t get it fixed, it partially runs (ramps up to minimum frequency but stops there). I have a planned power outage at cambria in handling then I can meet you out there after. I’m guessing 2pm if that works.
