Hold the Finder Window open. If this button is displayed in the window, the Window
closes when the area outside the Finder Window is clicked. Click on the pushpin to
keep the Finder on top of the Device Window, even when you click outside the

ISBus Configuration
The ISBus provides a
high-speed connection
between drives and
controllers for both
synchronous and
asynchronous data. This section describes how to insert the AV300i ISBus Interface (option card
6KCV301 ISBus) for AV-300i Version 2 drives and assign the data, which is to be
exchanged. The ISBus is commonly used to coordinate a set of drives with a
controller. Physically, it is a ring topology.
Communication is through a master/slave arrangement, where only the master can
communicate with a slave. Each bus can have only one master node. Depending on
the hardware platform, up to four ISBuses can be connected to a controller, with
letters A to D distinguishing each bus. The ISBus is also used to send asynchronous
data from the toolbox to the drive. This feature supports the upload and download of
parameters and trending over an Ethernet connection through the controller to drives
on the ISBus. The following diagram shows a typical connection.
