1.1.2 Safety Note
WARNING
HIGH VOLTAGE
The voltage of the frequency converter is dangerous
whenever connected to mains. Incorrect installation of the
motor, frequency converter or network may cause damage
to the equipment, serious personal injury or death.
Consequently, the instructions in this manual, as well as
national and local rules and safety regulations, must be
complied with.
1.1.3 Safety Regulations
1. The drive must be disconnected from mains if
repair work is to be carried out. Check that the
mains supply has been disconnected and that the
necessary time has passed before removing
motor and mains plugs.
2. The off-command on the serial bus does not
disconnect the equipment from mains and is thus
not to be used as a safety switch.
3. Correct protective earthing or grounding of the
equipment must be established, the user must be
protected against supply voltage, and the motor
must be protected against overload in
accordance with applicable national and local
regulations.
4. The earth leakage currents are higher than
3.5mA.
5. Do not remove the plugs for the motor and
mains supply while the drive is connected to
mains. Check that the mains supply has been
disconnected and that the necessary time has
passed before removing motor and mains plugs.
It has been assumed that all devices will be sitting behind
a firewall that does packet filtering and the environment
has wellimplemented restrictions on the software that can
run inside the firewall. All nodes are assumed to be
"trusted" nodes.

1.1.4 Warning against Unintended Start
1. The motor can be brought to a stop by means of
bus commands while the drive is connected to
mains. If personal safety considerations make it
necessary to ensure that no unintended start
occurs, these stop functions are not sufficient.
2. While parameters are being changed, the motor
may start.
3. A motor that has been stopped may start if faults
occur in the electronics of the frequency
converter, or if a temporary overload or a fault in
the supply mains or the motor connection ceases.

3.1.2 Network
It is of high importance that the media chosen for Ethernet
data transmission are suitable. Usually CAT 5e and 6 cables
are recommended for industrial applications. Both types
are available as Unshielded Twisted Pair and Shielded
Twisted Pair. Generally shielded cables are recommended
for use in industrial environments and with frequency
converters.
A maximum cable-length of 100m is allowed between
switches.
Optical fibres can be used for gapping longer distances
and providing galvanic isolation.
For connecting PROFINET devices both hubs and switches
can be used. It is, however, recommended always to use
suitable industrial graded Ethernet switches. GE
recommends always to use PROFINET compliant switches

3.1.3 PROFINET Cables
PROFINET cables used are based electrically on category 5 balanced LAN cables according to ISO/IEC 11801 Edition 2.0, Class
D.
Type C cables can be used in special applications (e.g. the use of trailing cables and frequently moved machine parts) even
though their design and mechanical parameters can deviate from the specifications of type A and type B cables. Still most
of the electrical parameters (impedance levels etc.) are retained. Highly flexible copper cables generally have the finest
stranded conductors and, for example, a highly resistant polyurethane outer sheath.
Various outer sheath materials are permitted in order to meet the various demands with regard to resistance of industrial
environments and exterior/underground laying (natural and synthetic oil, grease, coolants/lubricants, chemicals, high and
low temperatures, UV radiation).
All balanced cables used shall comply with the following parameters:

3.1.5 Topology
The PROFINET module features a built-in Ethernet-switch, thus having two Ethernet RJ-45 connectors. This enables the
possibility for connecting several PROFINET options in a line topology as an alternative to the typical star-topology.
The two ports are equal, in the sense that they are transparent for the option. If only one connector is used, both ports can
be used.

How to Install PROFINET Operating Instruction
NOTE
In a line topology all drives must be powered, either by mains or by their 24V DC option cards, for the built-in switch to
work.
Please observe that mounting drive of different power-sizes in a line topology may result in unwanted power-off behavior,
while using controlword timeout (O-02 Control Word Source to O-06 Reset Control Word Timeout. It is recommended to
mount the drives with the longest discharge time first in the line topology.
Illustration 3.6 Ring/Redundant Line Topology
CAUTION
For this type of topology it is crucial that the network switch supports detection of loss of line topology. In some cases the
detection. The switch inside the PROFINET option does not support this, but it must be supported in the switch that
connects the ring to the controller/network Please consult the manual of the switch for more information.

3.1.6 Recommended Design Rules
While designing Ethernet networks special attention and caution must be taken regarding active network components.
While designing a network for line topology it is important to notice that a small delay is added with each switch in the
line.
It is not recommended to connect more than 32 drive in a line. Exceeding the recommended design rules, may result in
unstable or faulted communication.

3.1.7 EMC Precautions
The following EMC precautions are recommended in order to achieve interference-free operation of the Ethernet network.
Additional EMC information is available in the AF-600 FP/AF-650 GP series Design Guide.
3
NOTE
Relevant national and local regulations, for example regarding protective earth connection, must be observed.
The Ethernet communication cable must be kept away from motor and brake resistor cables to avoid coupling of high
frequency noise from one cable to the other. Normally a distance of 200mm (8 inches) is sufficient, but maintaining the
greatest possible distance between the cables is recommended, especially where cables run in parallel over long distances.
When crossing is unavoidable, the Ethernet cable must cross motor and brake resistor cables at an angle of 90°.

Parameter group EN-1# holds information Ethernet Link
information:
EN-10 Link Status
EN-11 Link Duration
EN-12 Auto Negotiation
EN-13 Link Speed
EN-14 Link Duplex
Please note the Ethernet Link Parameters are unique per
port.
EN-10 Link Status and EN-11 Link Duration displays
information on the link status, per port.
EN-10 Link Status will display Link or No Link according to
the status of the present port.
EN-11 Link Duration will display the duration of the link on
the present port. If the link is broken the counter will be
reset.
EN-12 Auto Negotiation - is a feature that enables two
connected Ethernet devices to choose common
transmission parameters, such as speed and duplex mode.
In this process, the connected devices first share their
capabilities as for these parameters and then choose the
fastest transmission mode they both support.
Incapability between the connected devices, may lead to
decreased communication performance.
To prevent this, Auto Negotiation can be disabled.
If EN-12 Auto Negotiation is set to OFF, link speed and
duplex mode can be configured manually in EN-13 Link
Speed and EN-12 Auto Negotiation.
EN-13 Link Speed - displays/sets the link speed per port.
“None” is displayed if no link is present.
EN-14 Link Duplex - displays/sets the duplex mode per port.
Half-duplex provides communication in both directions,
but only in one direction at a time (not simultaneously).
Full-duplex allows communication in both directions, and
unlike half-duplex, allows for this to happen simultaneously.
