1 Preface and general information
The PC system bus adapter is a communication module for data transfer between a target system
(drive controller, Drive PLC, etc.) and a PC via the system bus (CAN). Two types are available:
• The PC system bus adapter 2173 is the classic type. It is connected to the parallel interface
(LPT port/printer connection) of the PC or notebook.
• The PC system bus adapter 2177 can be used for PCs & notebooks with a USB port (Universal
Serial Bus).
This type is recommended for notebooks which do not have a parallel interface for printer
connection.
Note!
This Manual contains information
• about the software installation of the device drivers required for the PC system bus adapters
and
• the software configuration of the PC system bus adapters using the system bus
configuration tool from Lenze.
Information about the mechanical/electrical connection of the PC system bus adapters can be found
in the corresponding Mounting Instructions for the PC system bus adapters.

3 Hardware installation
Information about the mechanical/electrical connection of the system bus adapters can be
found in the corresponding Mounting Instructions for the system bus adapters.

System bus adapter LED:
• PC system bus adapter 2173: The LED lights up as soon as the system bus adapter is
connected to the PC and the PC is switched on. If the LED does not light up the system bus
adapter does not work properly.
• PC system bus adapter 2177: The LED only lights up if the operating system has identified
the system bus adapter and found an appropriate driver. The LED flashes as soon as a Lenze
