Introduction Chapter 4 contains both a general description of the major hardware
components of the Series B drive, and background information to support
the procedures detailed in other chapters of this manual. You should use
this chapter in conjunction with the Installation chapter when installing
125 – 300HP, 230VAC and 250 – 600HP, 460VAC Series B Drives.
Terminology A brief description of new terms and concepts covered in Chapter 4 is
presented here:
Adapter Board – Circuit board containing hardware and software required
to interface external devices such as Allen-Bradley PLC or Discrete I/O
devices to the 1395 Series B drive.
Interface – Hardware and associated software required to transfer
information and/or control signals from one device to another.
Microbus – Hardware and associated software designed by Allen-Bradley
for the exchange of digital information at the microprocessor level. The
microbus is used for transfer of information between adapter boards and
the main control board.
Port – Hardware located on the main control board which allows for
connection of one adapter board to the microbus. There are two ports on
the main control board.
Programming Terminal – Device used for programming and monitoring
operation on the 1395 drive. The programming terminal is provided in two
packages: digital handheld terminal and door-mounted terminal.
Important: Refer to Chapter 1, “Publication References” for manuals
describing larger horsepower and current ratings at other line
voltages.
