Please read the following safety precautions carefully.
Safety Precautions
!
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 a serial
converter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment
damage.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the serial
converter is transmitting control I/O to the product (indicated by a solid
green diamond LED), the product may fault when you remove or reset
the serial converter. Determine how your product will respond before
removing or resetting a connected serial converter.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Parameter 4 - [Comm Flt Action] lets you determine the action of the
serial converter and connected product if DF1 serial communications
are disrupted. By default, this parameter faults the product. You can set
this parameter so that the product continues to run. Precautions should
be taken to ensure that the setting of this parameter does not create a
hazard of injury or equipment damage.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. DPI or
SCANport host products must not be directly connected together via
1202 cables. Unpredictable behavior due to timing and other internal
procedures can result if two or more devices are connected in this
manner.
