Conventions Used in This Manual
The following conventions are used throughout this manual:
• Parameter names are shown in the format Parameter xx - [*]. The xx
represents the parameter number, and the * represents the parameter
name — for example Parameter 01 - [DPI Port].
• Menu commands are shown in bold type face and follow the format
Menu > Command. For example, if you read “Select File > Open,”
you should click the File menu and then click the Open command.
• The firmware release is displayed as FRN X.xxx. The “FRN”
signifies Firmware Release Number. The “X” is the major release
number. The “xxx” is the minor update number.
• Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC (version 1.01), My Bluetooth
Places software (version 1.4.2), DriveExplorer Lite (version 4.04),
and DriveExecutive (version 3.01) were used for the screen pictures in
this manual. Different versions of the software may differ in
appearance and procedures.
• This manual provides information about the 20-WIM-N* Wireless
Interface Module (WIM) and using it with PowerFlex 7-Class drives.
The module can be used with other products that support DPI or
SCANport.
Third-Party Bluetooth Support
Since the WIM requires a Pocket PC, laptop PC or desktop PC equipped
with Bluetooth wireless technology, you may need to install a
third-party, vendor-specific Bluetooth driver. If this driver fails to
establish wireless communication with the WIM, refer to its
documentation for assistance. Furthermore, troubleshooting help may be
available on the vendor web site.

Features
Features of the WIM include the following:
• A status indicator (LED) that reports the operating status of the
module.
• Connectivity to products implementing DPI, such as PowerFlex
7-Class drives and peripherals, and products implementing
SCANport, such as legacy Allen-Bradley drives. When used with a
product, the WIM will autobaud to the DPI or SCANport data rate
that is used by the product.
• The WIM receives power from the drive. An outside power source is
not needed.
• The following tools can be used to configure the WIM:
– Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC (version 1.01 or higher)
– DriveExplorer (version 4.04 or higher)
– DriveExecutive (version 3.01 or higher)
– PowerFlex 7-Class HIM
• The WIM can be used with compatible Allen-Bradley software tools
through wireless communication to flash upgrade itself and other DPI
products (PowerFlex 7-Class drives and communication adapters) to
take full advantage of new firmware features as they become
available.

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 the
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 wireless 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).
Getting Started1-5
Quick Start
This section is designed to help experienced users quickly start using the
WIM. If you are unsure how to complete a step, refer to the referenced
chapter.
Step ActionRefer to…
1Review the safety precautions for the WIM.Throughout
2Install the WIM.
For the NEMA 1 WIM (20-WIM-N1), remove the HIM from the
drive cradle and replace it with the WIM. To install the WIM in a
remote-mounted HIM bezel (20-HIM-B1), first install the bezel
(see Publication 20HIM-IN001...). Make sure the HIM bezel is
connected to the drive port using the supplied 1203-C30 cable,
and then place the WIM in the bezel cradle.
For the NEMA 4 WIM (20-WIM-N4S), see Installing the NEMA 4
WIM (20-WIM-N4S) on page 2-3 for installation instructions.

The WIM is offered in two styles: a NEMA 1 module (20-WIM-N1) and
a NEMA 4 module (20-WIM-N4S). Each style is installed differently.
Installing the NEMA 1 WIM (20-WIM-N1)

The NEMA 1 WIM (20-WIM-N1) typically replaces the HIM, and is
normally installed in the HIM (Human Interface Module) cradle on the
front of the drive. When a HIM is still required and occupies the cradle,
the 20-WIM-N1 module can be installed in a HIM bezel (20-HIM-B1)
mounted in a remote location.
