Rockwell Automation 20-COMM-P Profibus Adapter - Manual (Page 12)

1-4 Getting Started
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
PROFIBUS adapter. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or
equipment damage.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The PowerFlex drive
may contain high voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove all
power from the PowerFlex drive, and then verify power has been
removed before installing or removing a PROFIBUS adapter.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of equipment damage exists. The PROFIBUS
adapter contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts that can
be damaged if you do not follow ESD control procedures. Static control
precautions are required when handling the adapter. If you are
unfamiliar with static control procedures, refer to Guarding Against
Electrostatic Damage, Publication 8000-4.5.2.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the
PROFIBUS adapter is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive
may fault when you reset the adapter. Determine how your drive will
respond before resetting an adapter.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists.
Parameters 9 - [Comm Flt Action] and 10 - [Idle Flt Action] let you
determine the action of the adapter and connected PowerFlex drive if
communications are disrupted. By default, these parameters fault the
PowerFlex drive. You can set these parameters so that the PowerFlex
drive continues to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the
settings of these parameters do not create a hazard of injury or
equipment damage.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. When a
system is configured for the first time, there may be unintended or
incorrect machine motion. Disconnect the motor from the machine or
process during initial system testing.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. The
examples in this publication are intended solely for purposes of
example. There are many variables and requirements with any
application. Rockwell Automation does not assume responsibility or
liability (to include intellectual property liability) for actual use of the
examples shown in this publication.
