Installing the

PROFIBUS Module

Chapter 3 provides instructions for installing the PROFIBUS module
in a MD65 drive.

3.1

Preparing for an Installation

Before installing the PROFIBUS module, verify that you have all
required equipment. Refer to chapter 2, Getting Started.

3.2

Commissioning the Module

To commission the module, you must set a unique node address
and check the data rate that is used by the network and set in the
GSD-file.

Important: New settings are recognized only when power is

applied to the module. If you change a setting, cycle
power.

Step 1.

Set the node address switches as shown in figure 3.1.

The PROFIBUS Node address/Firmware Update State is set
through the use of an 8-bit DIP switch. The low seven bits let you set
a node address and the valid address allows binary coding 1
through 125. New settings of node address are recognized only
when power is applied to the module, cycle power, or a Reset
Module Command. The MSB bit provides write access for the
module flash firmware update. In normal operating state, SW8
should be set to 1.

!

ATTENTION: The PROFIBUS module 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 module. Failure to observe these
precautions could result in damage to equipment.
