Using Multi-Drive Mode 7-9
6. Set the following adapter Multi-Drive parameters:
Important: To set adapter parameters, you must use DriveExplorer
software, DriveExecutive software or an optional,
external PowerFlex 4-Class HIM (22-HIM-A3 or
22-HIM-C2S).
7. Set the following parameters in daisy-chained Drives 1…4 to these
values:
8. Set the adapter Mode Jumper J2 to the “5x” (Multi-Drive) position.
9. Reconnect daisy-chained Drives 1…4 to the RS-485 network.
10. Power cycle ALL drives on the node to apply new settings. NOTE:
When the adapter is installed in a DSI External Comms Kit, you
must also power cycle the Comms Kit, which will reset the adapter.
The adapter PORT indicator should now be steady green, indicating
successfull configuration of the daisy-chained Multi-Drive node.
