Safety Precautions Please read the following safety precautions carefully:

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The drive contains high voltage capacitors which take time
!
!
to discharge after removal of mains supply. Before installing or removing the DeviceNet Communication Module, make sure to isolate the mains supply from line inputs [L1, L2, L3 (R, S, T)]. Wait three minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do so may result in injury or death.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Only personnel familiar with DeviceNet devices, Bulletin 160 SSC drives, and associated machinery should plan or implement the installation, start-up, configuration, and subsequent maintenance of the Communication Module. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. This module contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge)
!
!
!
sensitive parts that can be damaged if you do not follow ESD control procedures. Static control precautions are required when handling this Communication Module. If you are unfamiliar with static control procedures, refer to Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage, Publication 8000-4.5.2.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. When a system is configured for the first time, there may be unintended or incorrect machine motion. Disconnect the motor from the machine or process during initial system testing.
ATTENTION: Hazard of equipment damage exists. If explicit messages are programmed to frequently change parameter data in the drive, the EEPROM will quickly exceed its life cycle and cause the drive to malfunction. Do not create a program that frequently uses explicit messages to change a parameter in the drive.

DeviceNet Compatibility The 160-DN2 Communication Module is intended for use only with

Bulletin 160 SSC Series A, Bulletin 160 SSC Series B, and Bulletin 160 SSC Series C (FRN 7.03 and later) devices. Bulletin 160 SSC (Series C) devices must use a 160-DN2 Communication Module to connect to a DeviceNet network. Bulletin 160 SSC (Series A and B) devices can use either a 160-DN2 or 160-DN1 Communication Module to connect to a DeviceNet network.
When properly connected, the Communication Module communicates via the DeviceNet Protocol. The Communication Module/Bulletin 160 SSC combination comprise a Group 2 Slave Only device. This device supports DeviceNet slave Polled, Change of State/Cyclic messaging, and DeviceNet slave Explicit messaging. It does not support the Explicit Unconnected Message Manager (UCMM).
Replacing a 160-DN1 with a
160-DN2
You can replace a 160-DN1 Communication Module with a 160-DN2 Communication Module on any 160 SSC (Series A and Series B) drive. To do so, you will need to create an EDS file for the new 160­DN2 Communication Module and map the module to the network.

Surge Suppression Transient EMI can be generated whenever inductive loads such as

relays, solenoids, electro-mechanical brakes, motor starters, or motors are operated by “hard contacts.” The wiring guidelines contained herein are based on the assumption that you safeguard your system against the effects of transient EMI by using surge suppressors to suppress transient EMI at its source. Inductive loads switched by only solid-state output devices do not require surge suppression. However, inductive loads that are in series or parallel with hard contacts require surge suppression to protect control circuits as well as to suppress transient EMI.
Even if regularly cycled inductive loads have no interaction with the control system, these loads need suppression if their conductors are:
• Connected to the same separately derived system as that of the control system.
• Routed in proximity with conductors of the control system (per routing guidelines).
Publication 0160-5.18 - June 2003
The application (voltage and load of the inductive circuit) dictates the specific suppressor needed at the source of the inductive load. Testing has determined that the best overall RC surge suppressor combination
Installation and Wiring 3-3
is 220 ohms and 0.50 microfarads. Select the voltage rating for the normal AC voltages. A typical surge suppressor that can be used for most transient EMI problems is Electrocube part number RG1676-16 (rated 480V ac).
Surge suppressors are usually most effective when connected at the inductive loads. However, you can also connect surge suppressors at the switching devices, but they may be less effective because the wires connecting the switching devices to the inductive loads act as antennas that radiate EMI. You can evaluate the effectiveness of a particular suppressor by using an oscilloscope to observe the voltage waveform on the line.

3-4 Installation and Wiring

Common Mode Noise To greatly reduce high frequency common mode noise current

coupled to ground in high capacitance connections, connect a common mode choke at the drive end of the motor cable. The common mode choke reduces the rise time of the high frequency noise by a factor of 10-20, and the amplitude by a factor of 5. For multiple 460 volt drive installations with sensitive equipment (e.g. PLC’s, temperature sensors, sonar detectors, strain gauges, etc.) sharing a common ground separated by more than 30 feet, you must install common mode chokes at the outputs of each drive.
In addition to greatly reducing high frequency common mode noise induced by the drive, a common mode choke also effectively reduces high frequency common mode noise that is induced by regularly cycled inductive loads. In installations where inductively-coupled common mode noise causes system problems, connect a common mode choke at the source of the inductively-switched load.
For drives on a DeviceNet network, we highly recommend connecting a common mode choke at the drive end of the motor cable.

Drive Output Disconnect The drive is intended to be commanded by control signals that will

start and stop the motor. Do not use a device that routinely connects or disconnects output power to the motor with the drive outputting power (for the purpose of starting and stopping the motor, or for machine positioning). Connecting or disconnecting power to the motor with the drive outputting power can produce transient EMI which can cause network problems to occur.
For emergency stop conditions, make sure that terminal 7 and 8 on TB2 is broken (opened) using an auxiliary contact of a motor output contactor. Also, remember to set the Stop Select parameter to “Coast to Stop.”

Removing Program Keypad Module
or Ready/Fault Panel
Insert a small screw driver into the slot, pry back, and pivot module out. Avoid bending or twisting the contact pins located underneath the center portion of the module.
Before installing the Communication Module, it may be necessary to remove a previously installed module such as a Program Keypad Module or Ready/Fault Indicating panel.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The drive contains high voltage capacitors which take time
!
to discharge after removal of mains supply. Before installing or removing the DeviceNet Communication Module, make sure to isolate the mains supply from line inputs [L1, L2, L3 (R, S, T)]. Wait three minutes for capacitors to discharge to safe voltage levels. Failure to do this may result in injury or death.

DeviceNet Parameter Descriptions

This chapter contains:
• a description of DeviceNet parameters
• the definition of Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) files
Bulletin 160 SSC Interface parameters
• brief description of Bulletin 160 parameters
Important: This chapter describes the parameter set for a Series C Bulletin 160. If you are using a Series A or Series B Bulletin 160, not all the parameters listed in this manual may apply to that drive. When using a Series A Bulletin 160, please refer to the Bulletin 160 SSC User Manual, Publication 0160-5.0. When using a Series B Bulletin 160, please refer to the Bulletin 160 SSC User Manual, Publication 0160-5.9.

DeviceNet Parameters The 160-DN2 communication module contains a set of parameters

that define how the module will interact with the Bulletin 160 SSC drive and the DeviceNet network. These parameters may be used to set the module’s address, baud rate, and I/O data format. Parameters may also be read to attain status from the module.

Electronic Data Sheet (EDS) Files EDS files are specially formatted ASCII files that provide all of the

information necessary for a configuration tool such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet to access and alter the parameters of a device. The EDS file contains information on the number of parameters in a device and how those parameters are grouped. Additionally, the EDS file contains information about each parameter such as parameter min, max, and default values, parameter data format and scaling, and the parameter name and units.

Parameters and EDS File You select an EDS file for the Bulletin 160 drive using a software

application such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet. (See Chapter 6
160-DN2 with DeviceNet Scanner, for instructions to select an
appropriate EDS file.) An EDS file defines all the parameters in the Bulletin 160 drive and the 160-DN2 module, and creates a public interface to the drive on the DeviceNet network. Configuration tools such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet use EDS files to present you with parameters that enable you to configure the 160 SSC drive via DeviceNet by changing values associated with individual parameters.

Parameters and EDS File
(Continued)
Parameter values may be read or written via DeviceNet. Writing a value to a parameter may configure drive operations such as acceleration or deceleration rates. Writing a value to a parameter may also configure DeviceNet operations such as which input or output assemblies are to be used for polled I/O communications with a master. Reading a parameter value gives you status information.

Bulletin 160 SSC Interface This parameter set contains all of the parameters described in the

Bulletin 160 SSC User Manual, plus a few extra parameters to configure the operation of the 160-DN2 module on the DeviceNet network.

Locating EDS Files on the Internet Bulletin 160 SSC drives are available in Analog Signal Follower and

Preset Speed models. Each model supports a slightly different set of parameters. (In general, the Preset Speed model contains extra parameters for setting up preset speeds.) Accordingly, each drive model uses an EDS file specific to that model.
You can find the EDS file for your drive at http://www.ab.com/ networks/eds. Select the search criteria for the EDS file to be the same as that shown in the screen below.

After the EDS file list appears, find your specific drive in the Product Name column. Then, in the Brand column of that row click on the Allen-Bradley Company link to access the EDS file for downloading.
Important: Use the correct EDS file for your specific drive model, horsepower, and voltage. If an incorrect EDS file is used, you may not be able to set up the drive with the configuration tool.
