About This Publication
This publication provides installation instructions for a Kinetix 2000 power rail (PR). Use
these instructions for mounting your power rail to the panel.
The power rail distributes power and control signals to Kinetix 2000 axis modules that power
and control servo motors or other devices producing motion. The power rail provides a
common mounting mechanism for the modules that comprise a Kinetix 2000 motion system
of one to eight axes.
Refer to the Kinetix 2000 Multi-axis Servo Drive User Manual, publication 2093-UM001, for
power up procedures, troubleshooting information, and instructions on integrating a
Kinetix 2000 system with ControlLogix, CompactLogix, and SoftLogix modules or PCI
cards. The user manual provides detailed wiring examples, and information about installing or
removing equipment and accessories not described in this document.
