6.4.4 Using the Commissioning Wizard

Each screen of the Commissioning Wizard requires you to enter information about the motor,
drive or application. Read each screen carefully and enter the required information. When you
have completed a screen, click Next > to display the next screen. If you need to change
something on a previous screen, click the < Back button. The Commissioning Wizard
remembers information that you have entered so you will not need to re-enter everything if you
go back to previous screens. If you need extra help, click Help or press F1.
6.4.4.1 Connectivity
If you wish to change a node ID or baud rate then click in the appropriate cell and select an
alternative value. When multiple controllers are to be connected on the same bus they must each
have a unique node ID. For example, if two MotiFlex e100s and a NextMove e100 are connected
to the PC using individual USB connections, they must each be assigned a unique USB node ID.
6.4.4.2 DC bus sharing
Refer to section 3.5, and in particular section 3.5.2, for important details about DC bus sharing.
If the drive is being used as a 'standalone' drive (it is not sharing its DC bus or deriving power from
another drive's DC bus) it is not necessary to change anything on this screen. However, if the drive
is sharing its DC bus (it is a 'source' drive), or deriving its power from another drive's DC bus (it
is a 'receiving' drive), this stage must be completed.
For a source drive: Select the DC bus master option, then select the chosen 'power ready'
H

For a receiving drive: Select the DC bus slave option, then select the chosen 'power
H
ready' digital input.
