Please read the following safety precautions carefully.

Safety Precautions

!

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists from machine motion
when using wireless communications and software to Start/Stop/Jog,
configure or otherwise communicate with a drive.

Using the control bar feature in Pocket DriveExplorer for Pocket PC,
DriveExplorer or DriveExecutive with wireless communications may
present safety hazards due to potential loss of the wireless connection.
For example, if the wireless connection is interrupted after a start or jog
command is initiated from the control bar, the drive cannot be stopped
using the control bar until the wireless connection is restored. For this
reason, it is required to always use an additional hard-wired stop circuit
to disable the drive.

!

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. Only
personnel familiar with drive and power products and the associated
machinery should plan or implement the installation, start-up,
configuration, and subsequent maintenance of the product using the
WIM. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment damage.

!

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Parameter 02 - [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action of
the WIM and connected drive if wireless communications are
disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the drive. You can set this
parameter so that the drive continues to run. Precautions should be
taken to ensure that the setting of this parameter does not create a risk
of injury or equipment damage. When commissioning the drive, verify
that your system responds correctly to various situations (for example, a
communication disruption or a faulted controller).
