Please read the following safety precautions carefully.
Safety Precautions
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or death exists. The drive may contain 
high voltages that can cause injury or death. Remove all power from the 
drive, and then verify power has been removed before installing or 
removing the module.
!
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 the 
module. Failure to comply may result in injury and/or equipment 
damage.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. DPI and 
SCANport host products must not be directly connected together via 
1202-C* communications cables. Unpredictable behavior due to timing 
and other internal procedures can result if two or more devices are 
connected in this manner.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the 
module is transmitting control I/O to the drive, the drive may fault when 
you reset the module. Determine how your drive will respond before 
resetting the module.
!
ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. 
Parameters 09 - [Idle Action 1], 26 - [Idle Action 2], and 43 - [Idle 
Action 3] let you determine the action of the module and connected 
drives if communications are disrupted. By default, these parameters 
fault the drive. You can set these parameters so that the drive continues 
to run. Precautions should be taken to ensure that the settings of these 
parameters do not create a risk 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.
