9.2 Removal and replacement of the SIMOTION C
Overview
You can only replace SIMOTION C as a complete unit.
The SIMOTION C can only be replaced when the load power supply is switched off.
You must therefore switch off the power supply, e.g. by means of the on/off switch on the PS
module.
Removing a faulty module
To remove the SIMOTION C, proceed as follows:
1. Switch off the power supply.
2. Remove the micro memory card.
3. Open the front door panels. If necessary, remove the labeling strips.
4. Undo the connections on the terminal strip for the power supply.
5. Depending on the controller used, disconnect the encoders (X3...X6), the drive unit (X2), the
PROFIBUS DP interfaces (X8, X9) as well as the Ethernet (X7) and PROFINET interfaces (X11
P1 to X11 P3).
6. Loosen the mounting screw in the middle of the front connector (X1) and then pull out the
front connector, holding it at the gripping points provided.
7. Unscrew the module's mounting screws and swing it upwards and out.
Installing a new module
Procedure:
1. Remove the upper part of the front connector coding from the new module.
2. Insert a module of the same type, swing it down and screw it in tightly.
3. Insert the front connector and then tighten the mounting screw.
4. Depending on the controller used, connect the encoders (X3...X6), the drive unit (X2), the
PROFIBUS DP interfaces (X8, X9) as well as the Ethernet (X7) and PROFINET interfaces (X11
P1 to X11 P3).
