FOREWORD
1) The International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC) is a worldwide organization for standardization comprising
all national electrotechnical committees (IEC National Committees). The object of IEC is to promote
international co-operation on all questions concerning standardization in the electrical and electronic fields. To
this end and in addition to other activities, IEC publishes International Standards, Technical Specifications,
Technical Reports, Publicly Available Specifications (PAS) and Guides (hereafter referred to as “IEC
Publication(s)”). Their preparation is entrusted to technical committees; any IEC National Committee interested
in the subject dealt with may participate in this preparatory work. International, governmental and non-
governmental organizations liaising with the IEC also participate in this preparation. IEC collaborates closely
with the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) in accordance with conditions determined by
agreement between the two organizations.
2) The formal decisions or agreements of IEC on technical matters express, as nearly as possible, an international
consensus of opinion on the relevant subjects since each technical committee has representation from all
interested IEC National Committees.

INTRODUCTION
The IEC 61800 series is intended to provide a common set of specifications for adjustable
speed electrical power drive systems.
IEC 61800-7 describes a generic interface between control systems and power drive systems.
This interface can be embedded in the control system. The control system itself can also be
located in the drive (sometimes known as "smart drive" or "intelligent drive").
A variety of physical interfaces is available (analogue and digital inputs and outputs, serial
and parallel interfaces, fieldbuses and networks). Profiles based on specific physical
interfaces are already defined for some application areas (e.g. motion control) and some
device classes (e.g. standard drives, positioner). The implementations of the associated
drivers and application programmers interfaces are proprietary and vary widely.
IEC 61800-7 defines a set of common drive control functions, parameters, and state machines
or description of sequences of operation to be mapped to the drive profiles.
IEC 61800-7 provides a way to access functions and data of a drive that is independent of the
used drive profile and communication interface. The objective is a common drive model with
generic functions and objects suitable to be mapped on different communication interfaces.
This makes it possible to provide common implementations of motion control (or velocity
control or drive control applications) in controllers without any specific knowledge of the drive
implementation.
There are several reasons to define a generic interface:
For a drive device manufacturer
– Less effort to support system integrators
– Less effort to describe drive functions because of common terminology
– The selection of drives does not depend on availability of specific support
For a control device manufacturer
– No influence of bus technology
– Easy device integration
– Independent of a drive supplier
For a system integrator
– Less integration effort for devices
– Only one understandable way of modeling
– Independent of bus technology
Much effort is needed to design a motion control application with several different drives and
a specific control system. The tasks to implement the system software and to understand the
functional description of the individual components may exhaust the project resources. In
some cases, the drives do not share the same physical interface. Some control devices just
support a single interface which will not be supported by a specific drive. On the other hand,
the functions and data structures are often specified with incompatibilities. This requires the
system integrator to write special interfaces for the application software and this should not be
his responsibility.
Some applications need device exchangeability or integration of new devices in an existing
configuration. They are faced with different incompatible solutions. The efforts to adopt a
solution to a drive profile and to manufacturer specific extensions may be unacceptable. This
will reduce the degree of freedom to select a device best suited for this application to the
selection of the unit which will be available for a specific physical interface and supported by
the controller.
