Safety Instructions

Overview

This chapter states the safety instructions that must be followed when installing and operating the RS485/RS232 adapter. If neglected, physical injury and death may follow, or damage may occur to the frequency converter, the motor and driven equipment. The material in this chapter must be studied before attempting any work on, or with, the unit.

Warnings

Warnings are used to inform of conditions which can, if proper steps are not taken, lead to a serious fault condition, physical injury and death.

Readers are informed of situations that can result in serious physical injury and/or serious damage to equipment with the following symbols:

Dangerous Voltage Warning: warns of situations in which a high voltage can cause physical injury and/or damage equipment. The text next to this symbol describes ways to avoid the danger.

General Warning: warns of situations which can cause physical injury and/or damage equipment by means other than electrical. The text next to this symbol describes ways to avoid the danger.

Chapter 1 –Introduction

Overview

The RS485 and RS232 adapter is used for connecting the ACS 160 frequency converter to a serial Modbus (RS232 or RS485) network. The adapter is IP65 protected for use in demanding environmental conditions.

Delivery Check

The option package includes:

RS485/RS232 Adapter

Installation and Start-up Guide for RS485 and RS232 Adapter

Two M16 x 1,5 cable glands with O-ring.

Two M4 x 12 mounting screws

How to Use This Guide

The purpose of this Guide is to provide the information necessary to install, commission, use, and to fault diagnose the adapter.

Safety Instructions describe the formats for warnings and notations used within this guide. This chapter also states the safety instructions which apply to the installation and operation of the RS485/RS232 Adapter.

Chapter 1 – Introduction, the chapter you are reading now, contains a short description of this manual and a list of related publications.

Chapter 2 – Installation contains instructions for mechanical and electrical installation of the adapter.

Chapter 3 – Programming explains how to program the ACS 160 drive for Modbus communication.

Chapter 4 – Communication describes the Modbus communication on ACS 160 drives.

Chapter 5 – Fault Tracing describes how to diagnose the most common problems with the adapter.

Appendix A– Parameter Scaling describes the scaling when parameters are accessed through the Modbus network.

Appendix B– Technical data of the module.

Appendix C– Ambient conditions.

Conventions Used in This Guide

This manual uses some terms and conventions which might not be known to every user of this manual. Some of these terms are described below.

4XXXX Register Area

Modicon PLCs have a signed integer data table area, which is used for Analogue Output modules and for storing temporary or set-point values. These registers are in the address area starting from 40001. The last register address available on PLCs depends on the available memory, but is less than 49999.

The ACS 160 drive simulates this area by providing a read and write access to its parameters through this register address area.

Mounting

The CFB-RS can be mounted onto the ACS 160 drive with two screws as shown in the ACS 160 User's Manual. This also provides the earthing of the module housing.

The CFB-RS uses the control panel connector of the drive. The CFB-RS is powered through this connector.

The CFB-RS provides two cable entries for the incoming and outgoing bus cables. The cables are connected to a detachable terminal header.

If only one bus cable is connected, the unused cable entry should be plugged.

Remove the front cover to access the configuration switches and jumpers.

Connectors and Switches

The adapter operates either in RS232 mode or RS485 mode. The mode can be selected with a jumper. By default, the adapter operates in RS485 mode at a communication speed of 9600 bps (bits per second).

Selecting the Communication Speed

Communication speed is selected by DIP switch S2 and by parameter 5201 COMM SPEED. The factory setting for the communication speed is 9600 bps (bits per second).

Communication speed setting using DIP switch S2 is needed only when the adapter operates in RS485 mode.

RS485 Bus Termination

The RS485 bus must be terminated using 120 9 resistors at both ends of the network. The adapter has built-in termination resistors that can be enabled by the bus termination switch S1. Refer to 'Earthing and Termination' on page 2- 11. By default, bus termination is enabled (ON).

Installation to RS485 Bus

1Make sure power is not connected to the ACS 160.

2Set the adapter switches:

Confirm that the operation mode is RS485 (jumper S3)

Set communication speed of the adapter with DIP switch S2

If the termination is not needed, use switch S1 to disable it.

3Mount the adapter on the side of the ACS 160. Leave the drive connection cable disconnected.

4Wire the adapter to the RS485 network (X1 and X2).

5Connect the control panel to the drive.

6Connect power to ACS 160.

7Set up communication: Station number, communication speed of the drive and parity. Refer to Chapter 3 – Programming.

8Set up other drive parameters as needed. Refer to ACS 160 User’s Manual and Chapter 3 of this manual.

9Disconnect power from the ACS 160.

10Disconnect control panel and connect drive connection cable of the adapter.

Wiring

The RS485 link is a daisy-chained bus, without dropout lines. The RS485 link should also be terminated on both physical ends of the wire to reduce the noise on the network.

Modbus network should be wired using Belden 9841 or equivalent. Belden 9841 is a single twisted shielded pair cable with a wave impedance of 120 9.

The network should be connected according to Figure 2-6 below.
