The PowerFlex 520 series includes 523, 525, and 527. the Powerflex 525 and 527 both have a safe torque off feature that allows a faster startup from a tripped safety interlock. The Display group can be used for both monitoring the heath of the motor and drive or to troubleshooting problems that occur. The Parameters group is used to configure drive operations. The Fault group is used to translate codes given by the drive when problems are detected.
