Configuring the Module

Important: Due to an anomaly in firmware release 4.01, Remote I/O

modules that are used only for block transfer messages
require the following configuration: switches for block
transfer and reference/feedback should both be enabled
(SW 3.1 and SW 3.3 are ON. SW 3.2 and SW 3.4 through
3.8 are OFF).
This configuration prevents a fault on power up. It does
not affect rack I/O allocation or the ladder logic program
because it still fits within 1/4 rack I/O space. The drive will,
however, generate a serial fault if the communications
module is disconnected or loses power.

Setting Logic Command and Status

SW 3.2 enables or disables the word used for logic command and
status (e.g., start, stop, direction). Logic command/status uses one
word in the rack and group.

Figure 2.4

Logic Command/Status Switches

To edit the command/status setting, you need to:

1. Refer to the following table to determine the setting for SW 3.2:

2. Slide the switch to its appropriate position.

3. If Logic Command/Status is enabled, record “Logic Cmd” in the

first available module group (word) of the output column and
“Logic Sts” in the first available module group (word) of the
input column of your I/O image table on page 2–4.

Settings take effect when a module or board first receives power.
When you change a setting, you must remove and then reapply power
for the new setting to take effect.

Setting the Reference and Feedback

SW 3.3 enables or disables the word used for reference and feedback
(e.g., speed reference, torque reference). Reference/feedback uses one
word in the rack and group.
