Safety Information
The option c ard and its associated drive are intended as componentsfor professional incorporationinto complete equipment or systems. If installed incorrectlythe drive may present a safety hazard. The drive uses high voltages and currents,c arries a high level of stored electricalenergy,and isused tocontrolmechanicalequipmentthat can cause injury. Close attention is required to the electrical installation and the system design to avoid hazards either in normal operation or in the event of equipmentmalfunction. System design,installation, commissioning and maintenancemust be carried out by personnel whohave the necessary training and experience. They must read this safety information and this InstallationGuide carefully. Carefulconsideration must be given tothe functions ofthe drive and option c ard which mightresultin a hazard, either through theirintendedfunctions, e.g. auto-start,or through incorrectoperationdue toa faultor trip,e.g.stop/start,forward/reverse,m aximum speed, loss of a communications link. In any application where a malfunctionof the drive oroption card could lead todamage, loss or injury, a riskanalysis mus t be carried out, and where necessary, further measures taken to reduce t he risk.To ensuremechanical safety, additionalsafetydevicessuch as electro-mechanical interlocks may be required. The Drive mustnot be used in a safety­critical application withoutadditionalhigh-integrity protectionagainsthazards arising from a malfunction.
General Information
The manufacturer accepts no liability for any consequences resultingfrominappropriate, negligent or incorrectinstallation or adjustment of the optional operating parameters of the equipment or from mismatching the Drive with the motor.

1 Mechanical Installation

NOTE

1.1 Unidrive and UD70

Before attempting to installoption modules or cards, e nsure that the U nidrive or Me ntor II is switched off. AC Drives should be left for 5 minutes to ensure that the DC link capacitorshave completely discharged.
Slidethe UD70 moduleunder the displaypanelof theUnidrive,and push the modulein untilthe connector locates withthe plug insidethe Unidrive.

WARNING
Applyfirm pressure, andthe module will click securely into place.
To remove the UD70, pullfirmly on the black tab,and the module will disengagefrom the connector.
Do not attempt to remove the UD70 modulewhile the Unidrive is still powered up, as this may caus e damage to the Unidrive.

1.2 Mentor II and MD29/MD29AN

The MD29 is fitted ontothe 40-way pin header (PL1)on theMDA2B circuit board. The supplied mounting pillars should beattached to the MDA2B on the Mentor II.
Tilt the MD29at an angle and locate thefirstfew pins into theMD29 header.

Tiltthe boardto horizontal to engage the restof thepins. Pressfirmly downwardsto firmly fix the MD29to the header and 4 mounting pillars.
NOTE
WARNING
UD70/MD29 Installation Guide 4 Issue Number: 3 www.controltechniques.com
Take care when locating the board onto this connector - do not force it on. Excessiveforce may bend and break the pins of the header.
When removing an MD29, unsnap the MD29 from the pillars before gently w orking the MD29 off the header. Do nottilt the MD29 excessively to one side, as this may bend and breakthe end groups of pins on the header.
Do not attempt to remove the MD2 9 while the Mentor II is stillpowered up,as this may cause damage to the Mentor I I.

2.6 I/O Box PortConnections (MD29 Only)

The I/O Box port is marked “PL2”and is only availableon the MD29. The terminal connections are shown in the table below. Operation of this port is automatic, and no configuration is necessary.
Pin Function Description

NOTE
To us e the I/O Box with UD70 or MD29AN, connect it to the R S485 port, and select Mode 10 communications.

2.7 Digital I/O Connections

The RS485 connector has 2 TTL digitalinputs and 1 TTLdigitaloutput.They are used in conjunction with the Timer/Counter unit. (Forfurtherdetails,refer to the Userguide forthe UD70 or MD29.)
NOTE
NOTE
The0VSC isisolatedfrom the U nidrive or Me ntor II0V, and shouldnotbe used as the reference 0V for the TTL digital inputs and output.
If a digitalinput is open-circ uit or connected to +5V, this willbe readby #86.01 (input 0) or #86.02(input 1) as logic 0. These parameters will change to logic 1 when the inputs are connectedto 0V Digital on pin 9. The digitaloutput will give +5V when #86.03 isset tologic 0, and 0Vwhen setto logic1. Thedigitaloutput is rated to a maximum of 15mA. The maximum lengthof cablethatshould be connected to theseterminalsis 0.5 metres, so buffering will be required forlonger lengths of cable,and for interfacingto different logic levels.
The Digitalinputs a nd output must be connected to 0V Digital (pin 9), NOT OVSC (pin 1). The inputs and output will not work properly if connected to OVSC, as pin 1 is isolated fromthe Drive. Noise generatedalong the screen of theserial communications cable may cause spurious operation, and damagetotheUD70orMD29mayresult.

3 RS485 Port Configuration

TheRS485portcanbeusedtocommunicatewiththeDriveusingControl Techniques' standard software communications packages such as UniSoft, MentorSoft, CTFile and Systemwis e. (Refer to the Help file in Unisoft, MentorSo ft, etc. f or connection details.) The ANSIprotocolis the standard protocol used bythe ControlTechniques'softwarepackages,but Modbus RTU and ASCII modes are alsosupported as slave nodes only. The RS485 portis configured by settingcertainuser parameters on theUnidriveor MentorII. These control individualfeaturesabout the port.Any changes take effect when the configurat ion parameters are storedand t he UD70 or MD29 isreset. The following parameters used to configure the RS485 port.

Unidrive: #17.05 Mentor I I: #14.01 Range: 11 to 99, excluding 00 to 09, 10, 20, 30, 40, etc for ANSI.
Default: 11 Every node on an ANSI or Modbus network MU ST be assigned a unique serial
address. Changes to the node address will not take effect until theparameters have been stored, and the U D70 or MD29 has been reset. The serial address ensures that only the intendednode responds to commands issuedby thenetwork master control ler. Eachnode should be assigned a unique addressBEFORE itis connected to the RS485 network.
