WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not modify the drive or option circuitry. Failure to obey can cause serious injury or
death, or cause damage to the drive or option and will void warranty. Yaskawa is not responsible for modifications of the product
made by the user.
NOTICE
Damage to Equipment. Do not use steam or other disinfectants to fumigate wood for packaging the drive. Use
alternative methods, for example heat treatment, before you package the components. Gas from wood packaging fumigated
with halogen disinfectants, for example fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine or DOP gas (phthalic acid ester), can cause damage
to the drive.
2 Overview
This option provides a communications connection between the drive and an ODVA DeviceNet network. The
option connects the drive to a DeviceNet network and facilitates the exchange of data.
DeviceNet is a communications link to connect industrial devices (for example limit switches, photoelectric
switches, motor starters, smart motor controllers, operator interfaces, and variable frequency drives) and control
devices (for example, programmable controllers and computers) to a network. DeviceNet is a simple networking
solution. DeviceNet decreases the cost and time to wire and install factory automation devices, and it gives the
option to interchange like components from other vendors.
DeviceNet is an open network standard.
Install the option/DeviceNet option on a drive to do these functions from a DeviceNet communication master
device:
• Operate the drive
• Monitor the drive operation status
• Change drive parameter settings
