AutoMax Network Communication Option Board for the GV3000/SE AC Drive
2.10 Connecting the GV3000/SE Drive to an AutoMax Network
See figure 2.21 for cabling and termination connections.
Refer to the Network Communications Module instruction manual (J2-3001) for a
detailed description of how to add a drop to the AutoMax network.
To connect the GV3000/SE drive to an AutoMax network:
Step 1. Stop any application tasks that are running.
Step 2. Use the 30-inch Network Drop Cable (M/N2NC3000) to connect to the
Communications Passive Tap (M/N57C380).
Step 3. If the drop is at the end of the coaxial cable system, it must be terminated.
Terminate by connecting a 75-ohm terminating load (M/N 45C71) to the
remaining
BNC
connector on the passive tap.
Step 4. Remove the lockout and tag. Apply power to the drive. SELF is displayed
while the drive performs power-up diagnostics. If there is an error during
diagnostics, it is logged. See the software manual for information on errors.
.
!
ATTENTION: AutoMax networks with more than 5 drops might produce
communication errors if 10-foot drop cables are used. Wherever possible,
30-inch drop cables or, if necessary, 5-foot drop cables should be used.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in damage to, or
destruction of, equipment.
