Required Tools and Equipment

4–2
ATTENTION: Potentially fatal voltages may result from improp-
!
er useage of an oscilliscope and other test equipment. The oscilli-
scope chassis may be at potentially fatal voltage if not properly
grounded. Allen–Bradley does not recommend use of an oscilli-
scope to directly measure high voltages. Use an isolated measur-
ing device with a high voltage probe. Contact Allen–Bradley for
recommendations.
ATTENTION: This Drive contains ESD (Electro–Static Dis-
!
charge) sensitive devices. Static control precautions are required
when installing, testing, servicing or repairing this assembly.
These precautions should be applied when working with logic
boards AND any components in the power section. A properly
grounded wrist strap should be worn when contacting any compo-
nent in the drive. If you are not familiar with static control proce-
dures, before servicing, reference Allen–Bradley Publication
8000–4.5.2, Guarding against Electrostatic Damage or any other
applicable ESD protection handbook.
The following equipment is required for start–up and tuning.
Digital Multimeter (DMM) capable of 1000V DC/750V AC, with
input resistance of at least 1 megohm.
Hand Tachometer used to monitor motor velocities.
User Manuals for optional equipment.
DriveTools Software (optional)
This start–up sequence specifies using hand instruments such as
multimeters, tachometers, ammeters and an oscilliscope to carry out this
start–up test procedure. If you have the optional DriveTools software for
the 1336 FORCE Drive, it can be used to simplify the startup procedure.
This option can be used to set input commands, manipulate parameters and
verify frequencies and voltage levels.
IMPORTANT: This startup sequence for a Series B Drive assumes that
you have a HIM Programming Terminal. If a different programming
device is used, you must alter the startup accordingly.
