Safety Precautions

Please read the following safety precautions carefully.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists from machine motion when using wireless communications and software to Start/Stop/Jog,

configure or otherwise communicate with a drive.

Using the control bar feature in Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC, DriveExplorer or DriveExecutive with wireless communications may present safety hazards due to potential loss of the wireless connection. For example, if the wireless connection is interrupted after a start or jog command is initiated from the control bar, the drive cannot be stopped using the control bar until the wireless connection is restored. For this reason, it is required to always use an additional hard-wired stop circuit to disable the drive.

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 WIM. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Parameter 02 - [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action of

the WIM and connected drive if DF1 serial 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 communication disruption or a faulted controller).

You can then select other devices from the Port menu, or other functions from the Tasks menu.

10. If you will be routing to one or more remote networked drives, you

will need to perform sub-steps A through H in this step. This requires that you are able to connect to the Bluetooth card/module (cannot be done offline) because Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC must interrogate the device and determine what kinds of network adapters are present.

For an example illustrating remote connection, we are using two PowerFlex 40 drives with 22-COMM-D DeviceNet adapters connected to each other using standard DeviceNet cabling.

Configuring the WIM 3-7

H. From the last drive’s StatusMonitor screen, select Connect > and

the drive to which you want to connect to (for example, Drive

1.dfc). This establishes connection to that drive and displays its StatusMonitor screen.

Note: Using the “Remote” connection option for the WIM establishes a point-to-point connection. Therefore, you can only connect to one networked drive at a time.

Assigning a Name for the WIM (optional)

The WIM can be assigned a custom name (up to 16 alpha-numeric characters) that represents its associated drive’s application function, such as Pump 1 or Conveyor A. After successfully establishing a custom WIM name, it replaces the default drive name (for example, PowerFlex 40 3P 460V 1.0HP) that appears in the “Searching for Bluetooth Devices” screen and will now be recognized on the network.

Configuring the WIM 3-9

1. From the drive StatusMonitor screen (Figure 3.9), tap the Port menu

and select the drive port to which the WIM is connected. For this example, Port 1 is selected (Figure 3.15 installed in the drive’s bottom RJ-45 port. The WIM StatusMonitor screen (Figure 3.16

3-10 Configuring the WIM

Using DriveExplorer/DriveExplorer Lite

With DriveExplorer software running on a computer equipped with Bluetooth wireless technology, you can edit parameters in the WIM, connected drive, and any of the attached peripherals. DriveExplorer Lite, a free, limited-feature version of DriveExplorer, can be downloaded from http://www.ab.com/drives/driveexplorer.

If you are unsure how to use DriveExplorer or DriveExplorer Lite, refer to the online help (select Help > Help Topics).

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists from machine motion when using wireless communications and software to Start/Stop/Jog,

configure or otherwise communicate with a drive.

Using the control bar feature in DriveExplorer (version 2.01 or higher) with wireless communications may present safety hazards due to potential loss of the wireless connection. For example, if the wireless connection is interrupted after a start or jog command is initiated from the control bar, the drive cannot be stopped using the control bar until the wireless connection is restored. For this reason, it is required to always use an additional hard-wired stop circuit to disable the drive.

Establishing Wireless Communication Between the WIM and Computer

Bluetooth wireless technology enabled cards/modules installed in a computer are typically provided with a software program to establish communication with other wireless devices. The following example procedure describes how to establish communication using the software program “My Bluetooth Places” (version 1.4.2), which was included with a specific brand Bluetooth wireless technology module. Different versions of this software and different programs may differ in appearance and procedures.

1. Launch the “My Bluetooth Places” program. The program window

(Figure 3.19

) will appear.
