V7 Modbus® TCP/IP Option Kit
1. Applicable products: Standard V7 drives (CIMR-V7AM*) with Ethernet
specific software installed (Not V74X or V7N). Check V7 monitor U-10 or
the PRG # on the V7 nameplate for version 8340 or 8350 software.
Note: To order a V7 with Ethernet software, use the following part number
format: CIMR-V7AM****1-057. There is no charge for this upgrade.
2. When using this kit, it is strongly recommended that no connections be
made to the V7 drive's DC Bus terminals (+1 to -) on models CIMRV7AMxxxx1, where xxxx is 25P5, 27P5, 45P5, or 47P5. A connection for a
DC reactor (+1 to +2) or braking resistor (B1 to B2) is allowed.
3. Unpack the CM091 V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option Kit and verify that all
components are present and undamaged.

4. Connect power to the V7 drive and verify that the V7 functions correctly.
This includes running the V7 from the operator keypad. Refer to the V7 Technical Manual,
TM.V7.01, for information on connecting and operating the V7 drive.
5. Remove power from the V7 and wait for the charge lamp to be completely extinguished. Wa it
at least five additional minutes for the V7 to be completely discharged. Measure the DC bus voltage
and verify that it is at a safe level.
WARNING!
Dangerous voltages in excess of 400VDC (230V drives) or 800VDC
(460V drives) are present at the DC bus terminals of the drive.
6. Remove the operator keypad and V7 drive cover.
1. Remove the terminal cover by removing the retaining screw and lifting out the cover.
2. Remove the operator keypad.
7. Remove the CN2 cover from the V7 drive housing. Carefully snip the 3 tabs connecting the CN2
cover to the V7 housing and remove the cover.
8. Attach the Mounting Bracket. Align the mounting bracket as shown in the figure to the right.
Secure the mounting bracket to the V7 drive housing using the M3 x 8 screw provided.
9. Wire the V7 I/O terminals prior to mounting the V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option ring kit, as
the option will obscure power and control terminals when mounted.
10. Mount the V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option ring kit on the V7 drive.
1. Do NOT connect a ground wire to the screw on the back of the V7 Modbus TCP/IP
Option kit.
2. Align the CN1 connector on the back of the option with its mating CN2 connector on the
front of the V7.
3. Simultaneously align connector CN3 (male RJ-45) on the back of the option with
connector CN1 (female RJ-45) on the front of the V7.
4. Align the tabs on the option with their corresponding slots on the front of the V7.
5. Press the option and the V7 drive together until the tabs lock into their associated slots.
6. Secure the option to the V7 by tightening the locking screw at the top-center of the
option.
7. Reinstall the operator keypad and all V7 covers.

Note: It is strongly recommended that shielded
1. Connect to the Ethernet network.
1.1. Direct connection: To connect directly to the V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option card, plug one
end of a shielded CAT-5 cross-over cable into the RJ-45 socket on the V7 Modbus
TCP/IP Option card. Connect the other end to the RJ-45 Ethernet socket on the
configuration device, typically a controller, laptop or other PC.
1.2. Connection through hub or switch: To connect through a switch, hub or router, connect
V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option card to the switch, hub or router using a standard shielded
CAT-5 patch cable.
2. Loop the CAT-5 Ethernet cable through the provided ferrite (Intermark RFC-13) and
connect the ferrite as close to the RJ-45 connection as possible. Secure the ferrite to the
Ethernet cable with the provided cable tie. If the ferrite core cannot be mounted in your
installation please contact Yaskawa for application assistance. See the figure in the lower right
corner of this page.
3. Attach the provided ferrites to the V7 drive motor and power leads as close to the V7 drive
terminals as possible (typically within 1 foot). Secure the ferrites to the motor and power leads
with the provided cable ties. See the figure in the lower right corner of this page.

Successful Initialization:
The V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option kit hardware is installed and
operating correctly with the LEDs in the states shown in bold
text in the “LED Descriptions” table. The LINK LED
represents the status of the physical connection to the network
and is not indicative of any card state.
13. Configure the PC Network Connection.
1. Select an existing connection or create a new network connection for communication with
the V7 Modbus TCP/IP Option card.
1.1. Select Start ⇒ Settings ⇒ Network Connections from the task bar in the Windows
OS.
1.2. Select the network connection to be used.
2. Right click on the network connection and select Properties from the menu.
3. Select Internet Protocol (TCP/IP) from the components displayed.
Note: If a TCP/IP selection is not available, it may be installed by selecting Install.
Administrator access to the PC and the operating system installation CD-ROM may also
be required.
3.1. Select Properties.
Note: It is very important to record the existing network setup so that the configuration
PC can be restored to its original configuration.
3.2. Select the Use the following IP address radio button.
3.3. Enter the IP address as 192.168.1.19 and the Subnet mask as 255.255.255.0. Check the
system network schematic or with your network administrator to ensure that the IP
address does not already exist on the network.
3.4. Once the IP address and Subnet mask are entered, select OK.
Note: It may be necessary to reboot the PC in order for the changes to take affect.
