Connect the drive to the Modbus Plus communication network.
Connect the Modbus Plus network cable to the Modicon 9-pin D-shell connector.
● Recommended cable is Belden 9841
● Available Modicon cables
▪ 97-9841-100 – Modbus Plus 100ft
▪ 97-9841-500100 – Modbus Plus 500ft
▪ 97-9841-01k100 – Modbus Plus 1000ft
● Modicon offers two connectors along with an assembly tool.
▪ AS-MBKT-085 – Modbus Plus In-line Connector
▪ AS-MBKT-185 – Modbus Plus Terminating Connector
▪ AS-MBPL-001 – Modbus Plus Connector Assembly Tool
● Assemble the cable to one of the connectors listed above. If this node is either at
the beginning or end of the network segment, use the terminating connector. For
all devices not at either end of the network segment, use the in-line connector.
Attach the Modicon connector to the 9-pin D-shell connector on top of the Modbus
Plus Option Card.
Apply power to the drive and verify that the diagnostic LED (D2) on the front of the Modbus Plus Option Card is in its correct state.

Drive is off-line and cannot transmit. It does, however, listen on the network and
build an active node table
Normal operation
Drive is permanently in the idle state and cannot be communicated with. Possibly a
bad transmitter
Drive cannot find any other nodes on the network. It claims and wins the token but
has nowhere to pass it, disrupting network communication. Possible network wiring
error
Duplicate node address found. Drive will stay off-line until the duplicate node
address has not been heard on the network for 5 seconds
