The Human Interface Module (HIM) is the standard user interface for
the 8720MC Drive. When a drive mounted HIM is supplied, it can be
accessed from the front of the drive. A remote HIM is also available
for connection via a SCANport interface cable. For the location of the
DPI/SCANport connector, refer to Figure 1.2 in Chapter 1.
The HIM provides a way to display and modify drive parameters and
to view the operating parameters. The HIM also provides a means of
starting, stopping, jogging, switching directions and adjusting manual
speeds.
ATTENTION
!
When a drive mounted HIM is not supplied on
enclosed drives, you must install the blank
cover plate (option HAB) to close the opening
in the front cover of the enclosure. Failure to
install the blank cover plate allows access to
electrically live parts that may result in personal
injury and/or equipment damage.
