Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety precautions carefully.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive can contain high voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove all power from the PowerFlex drive, and then verify power has been discharged before installing or removing an adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Only personnel familiar with drive and power products and the associated machinery should plan or implement the installation, startup, configuration, and subsequent maintenance of the product using an adapter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The adapter contains electrostatic discharge (ESD) sensitive parts that can be damaged if you do not follow ESD control procedures. Static control precautions are required when handling the adapter. If you are unfamiliar with static control procedures, see Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage, publication 8000-4.5.2.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. DPI or SCANport host products must not be directly connected together using 1202 cables. Unpredictable behavior due to timing and other internal procedures can result if two or more devices are connected this way.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the adapter is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive can fault when you reset the adapter. Determine how your drive will respond before resetting an adapter.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action

of the adapter and connected drive if I/O communication is disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this parameter so that the drive continues to run, however, take precautions to verify that the setting of this parameter does not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various situations (for example, a disconnected cable or a faulted controller).

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 7 - [RcvHrtBeat Time] lets you determine how long

it will take the adapter to detect network communication losses. By default, this parameter sets the time to 120 seconds. You can set it so that the duration is shorter, longer, or disabled. When set to disabled, this also disables Parameter 6 - [Comm Flt Action]. Therefore, a communication fault action is ignored. Take precautions to verify that the setting does not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various situations (for example, a disconnected cable).

Applying Power

ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage, injury, or death exists. Unpredictable operation can occur if you fail to verify that parameter settings are compatible with your application. Verify that settings are compatible with your application before applying power to the drive.

Install the drive cover or close the drive door, and apply power to the drive. The adapter receives its power from the connected drive. When you apply power to the adapter for the first time, its topmost ‘PORT’ status indicator should be steady green or flashing green after an initialization. If it is red, there is a problem. See Chapter 5

Start-Up Status Indications

Status indicators for the drive and communication adapter can be viewed on the front of the drive (Figure 2.4 start-up status indications are shown in Table 2. A

Configuring and Verifying Key Drive Parameters

The PowerFlex 7-Class drive can be separately configured for the control and Reference functions in various combinations. For example, you could set the drive to have its control come from a peripheral or terminal block with the Reference coming from the network. Or you could set the drive to have its control come from the network with the Reference coming from another peripheral or terminal block. Or you could set the drive to have both its control and Reference come from the network.

The following steps in this section assume that the drive will receive the Logic Command and Reference from the network.

1. Use drive Parameter 090 - [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed

Reference to ‘22’ (DPI Port 5).

2. If hard-wired discrete digital inputs are not used to control the drive,

verify that unused digital input drive Parameters 361 - [Dig In1 Sel] and 362 - [Dig In2 Sel] are set to ‘0’ (Not Used).

20-COMM-L LonWorks Adapter User Manual

Publication 20COMM-UM008B-EN-P

Installing the Adapter 2-7

3. Verify that drive Parameter 213 - [Speed Ref Source] is reporting that

the source of the Reference to the drive is ‘22’ (DPI Port 5).

This ensures that any Reference commanded from the network can be monitored by using drive Parameter 002 - [Commanded Speed]. If a problem occurs, this verification step provides the diagnostic capability to determine whether the drive/adapter or the network is the cause.

TIP: For PowerFlex 750-Series drives, use drive Parameter 545 [Speed Ref A Sel] to set the drive speed Reference:

a. Set the Port field to ‘Port 0 - PowerFlex 75x’.

b. Set the Parameter field to point to the port in which the

20-COMM-L adapter/20-750-20COMM Communication Carrier Card are installed (for example, ‘876 - Port 6 Reference’).

The number ‘876’ in the Parameter filed of the example is the parameter in the drive that points to the port.
