Installing the Adapter

This chapter provides instructions for installing the adapter in a
PowerFlex 40 or PowerFlex 400 drive. This adapter can also be installed
in a DSI External Comms Kit. In this case, refer to the
22-XCOMM-DC-BASE Installation Instructions (publication
22COMM-IN001) supplied with the kit.

Before installing the adapter, verify that you have all required
equipment. Refer to

Required Equipment on page 1-3

.

To commission the adapter, you must set a unique MAC address and,
depending on where the PowerFlex drive node is located on the network
(starting and ending network nodes versus all other node locations),
appropriately set the TERM, -BIAS, and +BIAS switches.

Important: New settings are recognized only when power is applied to

the adapter or it is reset. If you change a switch setting,
cycle power or reset the adapter to apply the change.

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).
