Starting Up
Chapter 2 provides the following information:
•
setting the DIP switches to configure channels A and B
•
setting up the analog I/O
•
a description of the SCANport capabilities
•
a description of the pre–configured links
The PLC Communications Adapter Board contains four switches
that you use to select the communications options for each channel.
Use switches U2 and U3 to configure channel A and switches U4
and U5 to configure channel B. The standard configuration is to
configure channel A for DH+ and channel B for RIO adapter.
Changes to switch settings will not take effect until power is
re–applied.
!
ATTENTION: Use a blunt, pointed instrument (such
as a ball point pen) to set DIP switches. Do not use a
pencil. Pencil lead (graphite) may damage switch
assemblies.
!
ATTENTION: The PLC Communications Adapter
Board uses both input and output image table words for
drive control. The PLC Communications Adapter
Board is not compatible with complementary I/O
configurations. Failure to check connections and switch
settings for application compatibility when configuring
the PLC Communications Adapter Board could result
in personal injury and /or equipment damage due to
unintended or undesirable drive or process equipment
operation.
The start up procedure for the PLC Communications Adapter Board
depends on the communications protocol that you are using.
Regardless of which protocol you are using, you need to set the
protocol and baud rate. Once you have set the protocol and baud
rate, follow the procedure for the protocol you chose for that channel
(A or B).
If you encounter any operating faults once switch settings have been
applied, refer to Chapter 8, Troubleshooting.
