AutomationDirect Foreword
This QuickStart Guide is designed to get a PHOX servo system installed and running quickly.
This AutomationDirect Guide is a supplement to the LS Electric PHOX User Manual. This Guide
does not replace the manufacturer's User Manual. For advanced features or options required
by your application, you may still need to refer to the User Manual. Download and reference
both this QuickStart Guide and the PHOX User Manual when commissioning a PHOX servo
system.
This quickstart guide will get your PHOX drive configured and commissioned using Drive CM.
• For further EtherCAT commissioning help, see AutomationDirect's LS Electric Interactive PLC
Guide available at
A note on Part Numbers: LS Electric servo parts sold by AutomationDirect have part numbers
that end with "-AD". This suffix signifies special packaging and labeling for AutomationDirect.
All the LS servo products with the "-AD" function and behave exactly the same as the standard
LS Electric parts. Please note that when reading the LS electric User Manual or using the Drive
CM software, the "-AD" will NOT appear in any part numbers. For example, AutomationDirect
part PHOX-06-080NS-AD is just PHOX-06-080NS in the LS Electric documentation.
NOTE: EtherCAT® is a registered trademark and patented technology, licensed by Beckhoff
