The package is not a separate download—it is integral to TIA Portal versions V15.1 and higher. To check its presence:
The XSD schemas within the package prevent misconfiguration. For instance, if you try to map a digital output to a non-existent hardware terminal, the package triggers a compile-time error rather than a runtime fault. Siemens.mc.drives.acx.model.configuration Data.package
A typical Siemens.mc.drives.acx.model.configuration Data.package includes the following artifacts: The package is not a separate download—it is
| Component | File Extension | Purpose |
|-----------|----------------|---------|
| Device Model | .acx | Hierarchical description of the drive hardware (power unit, CU320-2, motor, encoders). |
| Parameter Schema | .xsd | Defines data types for each parameter (U16, Float, I32, etc.) and allowed ranges. |
| Telegram Mapping | .telemap | Links process data words to drive internal objects (e.g., Connect PZD1 to speed setpoint). |
| Text Table | .xml | Multilingual plain-text descriptions for diagnostics and HMI displays. |
| Configuration Wizards | .dll | .NET assemblies used by TIA's "Drive Parameter Assistant" wizard. | A typical Siemens
When you export a configured drive from TIA Portal as a library type, you are essentially creating a custom instance of this data package.
