6.2 Replacing the Power Module
When required, the Power Module can be replaced by an identical module (the same type
and the same version) without having to recommission it.
If you replace a Power Module by one of the same type and the same format, however with
a higher power rating, then re-parameterization is not absolutely necessary and you can
acknowledge message F0395. However, this can have a negative impact on the open-loop /
closed-loop control accuracy.
If you replace a Power Module by one with the same type and with a lower power rating,
then then drive must be re-commissioned.
Before you replace the Power Module, ensure that all of the parameter settings are saved
in the EEPROM of the Control Unit (refer to P0014 or P0971).
