Getting Started
The 22-COMM-L LonWorks adapter is a communication option
intended for installation into a PowerFlex 40 or PowerFlex 400 drive. It
can also be used with other Allen-Bradley products that support a DSI
comunication adapter, such as the DSI External Comms Kit
(22-XCOMM-DC-BASE). The External Comms Kit enables PowerFlex
4 drives (which cannot support an internally-mounted adapter) to
connect to a LonWorks network.
