Appendix A Hardware Introduction The HMI Interface Board module (Figure 79) consists of two circuit boards sandwiched together. The base board is the PFNI (PowerFlex Network Interface Board). It contains a socket into which the processor module (NetBurner) connects into. This assembly is collectively referred to as the HMI Interface Board. The HMI Interface Board (Part no. 80190-780-01-R) connects into the DPM (Drive Processor Module) and becomes part of the drive control platform.
Appendix A Hardware Unless directed by Rockwell Automation, this switch will always be in the Default position. Switch 2: Internal DIM On Internal DIM disabled Off Internal DIM enabled Default Off The PFNI has a built in DIM as well as a socket for an external DIM. When the external DIM is plugged in, it is always active, regardless of this switch setting. When the internal DIM is in use, this switch allows for the rare occasion that it must be disabled.
Hardware Appendix A Ethernet Port The standard RJ45 connector for Ethernet. The port is configured for 100 Mbps, Full Duplex. A standard Cat5 Ethernet cable is used for connection. DIM (Drive Identity Module) Socket The HMI Interface Board module plugs into the DPM via the existing DIM socket on the DPM. To accommodate the existing external DIMs, the DIM can be reinserted into the socket on the PFNI board.
Appendix A Hardware Network Protocols The HMI Interface Board module is an Ethernet device. The network must allow certain ports to be accessed on PCs or Terminals which interact with the HMI Interface Board. IMPORTANT Security of a Network is the responsibility of the IT Department which maintains the network in the Application of the device. The HMI Interface Board does not provide any form of firewall protection.
Glossary Base Discovery The directory where .XML files are stored by default. When the application is launched from a remote device, a directory named “Temporary Internet Files’ will be created on the local terminal. Within this directory, will be subdirectories which are named according to the IP address of the remote device. This subdirectory which corresponds to the IP address is the Base Directory.
