2.2.4. Installing A Drive Module in the DR500

WARNING
Before installing a drive module into a slot in the DR500 (refer to Figure 2-3), it is
necessary to configure the jumpers on the Drive Interface board for that type of drive
module. There are currently three types of modules: brush motor drive modules - the DS
series, stepper motor drive modules - the AM series, and AC brushless motor drive
modules - the AS series.
There are two types of jumpers discussed in the following sections: two pin headers and
#16 gauge solid bus wire. The two pin header jumpers are designated as JPx#, where the
"x" corresponds to a specific axis (e.g., JP23 is an axis 2 jumper, JP43 is an axis 4
jumper, JP13 is an axis 1 jumper, etc.). All the non-axis specific jumpers are outside the
range of 10 through 49. The "#" designates a particular jumper having the same function
for each axis. The other type of jumpers are #16 gauge solid bus wire jumpers and are
designated as BWx#, where the "x" and "#" have the same meaning as previously
described.
