Safety Precautions
Please read the following safety precautions carefully.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive
may contain high voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove
!
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, start-up,
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 ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) 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, refer to Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage (publication 8000-4.5.2).
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the
adapter is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may 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 02 - [Comm Loss Action] lets you determine the action of
!
the adapter and connected drive if communications are disrupted. By
default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this parameter so
that the drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure
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).
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter
03 - [Comm Loss Time] lets you determine how long it will take the
!
adapter to detect network communication losses. By default, this
parameter sets the timeout to ten seconds. You can set it so that the
duration is shorter, longer, or disabled. When set to disabled, this also
disables adapter Parameter 02 - [Comm Loss Action]. Therefore, a
communications fault action will be ignored. Take precautions to ensure
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).
Getting Started1-5
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: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. The
examples in this publication are intended solely for purposes of
!
example. There are many variables and requirements with any
application. Rockwell Automation, Inc. does not assume responsibility
or liability (to include intellectual property liability) for actual use of
the examples shown in this publication.

Preparing for an Installation
Before installing the adapter, verify that you have all required
equipment. Refer to Required Equipment
on page 1-3.
Commissioning the Adapter
To commission the adapter, you must set a unique MAC address and,
depending on where the PowerFlex drive node is located on the network
(starting and ending network nodes versus all other node locations),
appropriately set the TERM, -BIAS, and +BIAS switches.
Important: New settings are recognized only when power is applied to
the adapter or it is reset. If you change a switch setting,
cycle power or reset the adapter to apply the change.
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The adapter
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 the adapter. If you are
unfamiliar with static control procedures, refer to Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage (publication 8000-4.5.2).
2-2Installing the Adapter
Setting the MAC Address
Set the MAC address using the MAC Address switches (Figure 2.1).
Refer to Table 2.A for specific MAC address switch settings.
Important: Each node on the network must have a unique MAC
address. Set the MAC address before power is applied
because the adapter uses the MAC address it detects when it
first receives power. To change a MAC address, you must
set the new value. Then remove and reapply power to (or
reset) the adapter.
