Installation Instructions ArmorPoint PROFIBUS Adapter, Series A Catalog Number 1738-APB Inside . . .
Important User Information Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and Maintenance of Solid State Controls (publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell Automation sales office or online at http://www.rockwellautomation.com/literature) describes some important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired electromechanical devices.
Environment and Enclosure ATTENTION This equipment is intended for use in overvoltage Category II applications (as defined in IEC publication 60664-1), at altitudes up to 2000 meters without derating. This equipment is considered Group 1, Class A industrial equipment according to IEC/CISPR Publication 11. Without appropriate precautions, there may be potential difficulties ensuring electromagnetic compatibility in other environments due to conducted as well as radiated disturbance.
Prevent Electrostatic Discharge ATTENTION This equipment is sensitive to electrostatic discharge, which can cause internal damage and affect normal operation. Follow these guidelines when you handle this equipment: • Touch a grounded object to discharge potential static. • Wear an approved grounding wriststrap. • Do not touch connectors or pins on component boards. • Do not touch circuit components inside the equipment. • If available, use a static-safe workstation.
Refer to the Module Identification illustrations to guide you through the installation process.
Mount the Adapter and I/O Bases To mount the ArmorPoint adapter on a wall or panel, use the screw holes provided in the ArmorPoint adapter. Drilling Dimensions Adapter 46.25 mm (1.8 in) 51.9 mm (2.0 in) 20.1 mm (0.8 in) 51.9 mm (2.0 in) 20.1 mm (0.8 in) 51.9 mm (2.0 in) 56 mm (2.2 in) 102 mm (4.02 in) 43769 To install the mounting base: 1. Layout the required points as shown in the Drilling Dimensions drawing. 2. Drill the necessary holes for #8 (M4) machine or self-tapping screws. 3.
Terminating Bases Mounting Hole Ground Connection 43787 Latching Mechanism Set the Station Address To set the station address, adjust the switches on the front of the module (refer to the Module Identification illustration). Use a small blade screwdriver to rotate the switches. Line up the small notch on the switch with the number setting you wish to use. The two switches are most significant digit (MSD) and least significant digit (LSD). Valid address are from 01 to 99.
GSD File Requirements Current functionality of PROFIBUS adapters requires GSD files. These files are easy to install and are available online at: www.ab.com/networks/gsd/. Wire the Adapter Refer to the illustrations for wiring instructions for the adapter.
Troubleshoot To help you troubleshoot the adapter, refer to the Troubleshoot with the Indicators illustration and the individual indicator troubleshooting tables.
