electromechanical equipment. “Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls” (Publication SGI-1.1 available from
your local Rockwell Automation Sales Office or online at http://www.ab.com/manuals/gi) describes some important differences between solid state equipment
and hard-wired electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also
because of the wide variety of uses for solid state equipment, all persons
responsible for applying this equipment must satisfy themselves that each intended
application of this equipment is acceptable.

Features
The DeviceNet adapter features the following:
• The adapter is mounted in the PowerFlex 40 drive. It receives the
required power from the drive and from the DeviceNet network.
• Switches let you set a node address and network data rate before
applying power to the PowerFlex drive. Alternately, you can disable
the switches and use parameters to configure these functions.
• A jumper lets you select between Single or Multi-Drive mode of
operation. In Single mode, the adapter represents a single drive on
one node. In Multi-Drive mode, the adapter represents up to 5 drives
on one node.
• A number of configuration tools can be used to configure the adapter
and connected drive. The tools include an external PowerFlex
4-Class HIM (22-HIM-*), network software such as RSNetWorx for
DeviceNet, or drive-configuration software such as DriveExplorer
(version 3.01 or higher) or DriveTools 2000 (version 1.01 or higher).
• Status indicators report the status of the drive communications,
adapter, and network.
• I/O, including Logic Command/Reference, may be configured for
your application using a parameter.
• Explicit and UCMM (Unconnected Message Manager) Messages are
supported.
• Multiple data exchange methods, including Polled, Cyclic, and
Change of State (COS), can be used to transmit data between the
network and adapter.
• User-defined fault actions determine how the adapter and PowerFlex
drive respond to communication disruptions on the network and
controllers in idle mode.
• Faulted node recovery is supported. You can configure a device even
when it is faulted on the network if you have a configuration tool that
uses faulted node recovery and have properly set the adapter node
address switches and data rate switches.

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 all
!
power from the PowerFlex drive, and then verify power has been
removed 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 a
DeviceNet adapter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or
equipment damage.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the
DeviceNet 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.
Parameters 7 - [Comm Flt Action] and 8 - [Idle Flt Action] let you
!
determine the action of the adapter and connected PowerFlex drive if
communications are disrupted. By default, these parameters fault the
PowerFlex drive. You can set these parameters so that the PowerFlex
drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the
settings of these parameters do not create a hazard of injury or
equipment damage.
ATTENTION: Hazard 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 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.

3Commission the adapter.
Set a unique node address and the appropriate data rate using
the switches on the adapter. If desired, you can disable the
switches and use parameter settings instead.
4Install the adapter.
Verify that the PowerFlex drive and DeviceNet network are not
powered. Then, connect the adapter to the network using a
DeviceNet cable and to the drive using the Internal Interface
cable. Use the captive screws to secure and ground the adapter
to the drive.
5Apply power to the adapter.
The adapter receives power from the drive and network. Apply
power to the network and to the drive. The status indicators
should be green. If they flash red, there is a problem. Refer to
Chapter
8, Troubleshooting.
6Configure the adapter for your application.
Set the following parameters for the adapter as required by your
application:
• Node address and data rate.
• I/O configuration.
• Change of State, Cyclic, or polled I/O data exchange.
• Fault actions.
7Apply power to the DeviceNet master and other devices on
the network.
Verify that the master and network are installed and functioning in
accordance with DeviceNet standards, and then apply power to
them.
8Configure the scanner to communicate with the adapter.
Use a network tool such as RSNetWorx for DeviceNet to
configure the scanner on the network. Make sure to:
• Set up the scan list.
• Map the adapter data to the scan list.
• Save your DeviceNet configuration to the scanner and a file.
9Create a ladder logic program.
Use a programming tool such as RSLogix to create a ladder logic
program that enables you to do the following:
• Control the adapter and connected drive.
• Monitor or configure the drive using Explicit Messages.

Preparing for an Installation
Before installing the DeviceNet adapter:
• Read the DeviceNet Product Overview Manual, Publication DN-2.5,
and the DeviceNet Cable System Planning and Installation Manual,
Publication DN-6.7.2. These manuals will provide information on
selecting cables, setting up a network, and network basics.
• Verify that you have all required equipment. Refer to Chapter 1,
Getting Started
.
Commissioning the Adapter
To commission the adapter, you must set a unique node address and the
data rate that is used by the network. (Refer to the Glossary
about data rates and node addresses.)
Important: New settings are recognized only when power is applied to
the adapter. If you change a setting, cycle power.
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The DeviceNet
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.

1. Reinstall the cover on the drive. The status indicators can be viewed
on the front of the drive after power has been applied.
2. Ensure that the adapter will have a unique address on the network
and is set at the correct data rate or to autobaud. If a new data rate or
address is needed, reset its switches (refer to Commissioning the
Adapter in this chapter).
3. Apply power to the PowerFlex drive. The adapter receives its power
from the connected drive and network. When you apply power to the
product and network for the first time, the status indicators should be
green after an initialization. If the status indicators go red, there is a
problem. Refer to Chapter
4. If the software settings for the data rate and node address are to be
used, a configuration tool such as DriveExplorer can be used to
adjust the respective parameters in the adapter.
