Configuring the WIM

By default, when communications are disrupted (for example, loss of
wireless communication), the WIM and connected drive respond by
faulting. You can configure a different response to communication
disruptions using Parameter 02 - [Comm Flt Action] for DPI drives or
Parameter 04 - [Comm Flt Action] for SCANport drives.

To change the fault action

Set the value of Parameter 02 - [Comm Flt Action] (or Parameter 04 -
[Comm Flt Action]
for SCANport drives) to the desired response:

Changes to this parameter take effect immediately. A reset is not
required.

Setting the Fault Action

!

ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Parameter 02 - [Comm Flt Action] (or Parameter 04 - [Comm Flt
Action]
for SCANport drives) lets you determine the action of the
WIM and connected drive if 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, disruption of
wireless communication).
