Configuring the Adapter
Chapter 3
•
An idle controller by using
Device parameter 24 [Idle Flt Action].
Changing the Fault Action
Set the values of
Device parameters 23 [Comm Flt Action] and 24 [Idle Flt
Action]
to the desired responses:
Changes to these parameters take effect immediately. A reset is not required. If
communication is disrupted and then re-established, the drive will automatically
receive commands over the network again.
If Multi-Drive mode is used, the same fault action is used by the adapter for all of
the drives it controls (Drive 0...4).
Setting the Fault Configuration Parameters
When setting
Device parameters 23 [Comm Flt Action] and 24 [Idle Flt
Action]
to 4 “Send Flt Cfg,” the values in the following parameters are sent to the
drive after a communications fault and/or idle fault for drive control fault occurs.
You must set these parameters to values required by your application.
Changes to these parameters take effect immediately. A reset is not required.
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Device parameters 23
[Comm Flt Action] and 24 [Idle Flt Action] respectively let you determine the
action of the adapter and drive if communications are disrupted or the
controller is idle. By default, these parameters fault the drive. You may
configure these parameters so that the drive continues to run, however,
precautions should be taken to ensure that the settings of these parameters do
not create a risk of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the
drive, verify that your system responds correctly to various situations (a
disconnected network cable or controller in idle state).
Value
Action
Description
0
Fault
The drive is faulted and stopped. Datalink data is no longer sent to the drive. (Default)
1
Stop
The drive is stopped as per Host parameter P045 [Stop Mode] setting. Datalink data sent to
the drive remains unchanged.
2
Zero Data
The drive is sent “0” values for all Reference and Datalink data. This does not command a stop.
3
Hold Last
The drive continues in its present state.
4
Send Flt Cfg
The drive is sent the Reference and Datalink data that you set in the fault configuration
parameters (Device parameters 25 [Flt Cfg Logic], 26 [Flt Cfg Ref], and 27 [Flt Cfg DL 1]
through 30 [Flt Cfg DL 4]).
Parameter
Description
25 [Flt Cfg Logic]
A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for Logic Command.
26 [Flt Cfg Ref]
A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for Reference.
27 [Flt Cfg DL 1] through
30 [Flt Cfg DL 4]
A 16-bit integer value sent to the drive for a Datalink.
