Siemens.mc.drives.acx.model.configuration Data.package Container May 2026
In the ecosystem of Siemens Motion Control (MC) and drive systems, specifically within the and SIMATIC families, the term siemens.mc.drives.acx.model.configuration data.package container refers to a specialized data structure used for the automated configuration and modeling of drive systems . This container format is integral to the TIA Portal (Totally Integrated Automation) engineering environment, particularly when using Startdrive for drive commissioning. Core Components and Purpose
The identifier represents a hierarchical path used by the software to manage drive-specific settings. In the ecosystem of Siemens Motion Control (MC)
: Refers to the ACX (Access Control and Exchange) data format. In Siemens drive systems, ACX files are often used for macros or scriptable configuration sets that can be executed on a drive’s Control Unit (CU) to automate setup. : Refers to the ACX (Access Control and
: Ensuring this container is correctly populated is vital for Safety Integrated functions, as it holds the safety parameters and checksums required for SIL3/PLe certification. How to create ACX (Macro) files for Sinamics - SiePortal How to create ACX (Macro) files for Sinamics
When configuring a drive like the or G120 within the TIA Portal, the system creates these data packages to ensure consistency between the PLC (like an S7-1500) and the drive hardware.
