Bosch Rexroth AG Multi-Ethernet Card Hardware Installation 3.2 Installing the Card in Frequency Converter The MEP extension card must be installed in combination with the extension card module in the EFCx610 frequency converter. For details, please refer to Ex- tension Card Module Mounting Instructions.
Multi-Ethernet Card Bosch Rexroth AG Hardware Installation 3.4 LEDs Two slots are provided in the extension card module. On each slot, four dual-col- or LEDs are equipped for state indication if the MEP extension card is applied. The network status (NS: H11/H21) and module status (MS: H12/H22) LEDs are red/green.
Bosch Rexroth AG Multi-Ethernet Card General Configuration 4 General Configuration 4.1 Protocol Selection The parameter H3.40 is used to define the type of Industrial Ethernet protocol to be used with MEP card. And parameter H3.41 indicates which industrial Ethernet protocol is currently engaged. Once the request protocol is changed, a cycle power or a reboot is needed to activate the selected protocol.
Multi-Ethernet Card Bosch Rexroth AG General Configuration 4.2 Communication Channel Setting The fieldbus communication channel should be configured according to the ac- tual application when the MEP communication extension card is applied. If the first control command and frequency setting are both transmitted via com- munication channel, parameters in table 4-2 should be set to open the first com- munication channel.
Bosch Rexroth AG Multi-Ethernet Card General Configuration 4.3 Process Data Setting Range The range of both output and input process data is listed in the table below. If the setting values exceed the range, "FPC-" error will be triggered. The output process data list includes the cyclic data objects that can be trans- ferred from controller to peripheral devices.
