IEC 61800-7-1:20 15规定了功率驱动系统(PDS)与控制器中的应用控制程序之间的通用接口。通用PDS接口不特定于任何特定的通信网络技术。IEC 61800这一部分的附录规定了不同驱动器配置文件类型到通用PDS接口的映射。IEC 61800本部分规定的功能并非旨在确保功能安全。这需要根据相关标准、协议和法律采取额外措施。与上一版相比，此版本包括以下重大技术变更: a)将驱动器简档类型1映射到附加网络技术上； b)配置文件类型1、2和4的子条款中的微小更新，与专用IEC 61800-7-20x部件的相应变化相关。

IEC 61800-7-1:2015 specifies a generic interface between power drive system(s) (PDS) and the application control program in a controller. The generic PDS interface is not specific to any particular communication network technology. Annexes of this part of IEC 61800 specify the mapping of the different drive profiles types onto the generic PDS interface. The functions specified in this part of IEC 61800 are not intended to ensure functional safety. This requires additional measures according to the relevant standards, agreements and laws. This edition includes the following significant technical changes with respect to the previous edition:
a) mapping of drive profile type 1 onto additional network technologies;
b) minor updates in the subclauses for profile types 1, 2 and 4, in relation with corresponding changes in the dedicated IEC 61800-7-20x parts.
