Chapter Installing the Serial Converter Module Chapter 2 provides instructions for installing and removing the serial converter module. Topic Page Selecting Cables Installing the Serial Converter Module Removing the Serial Converter Module 2-3 Selecting Cables The following cables are all you should need to connect the serial converter module to a drive and a computer.
Page 16
Installing the Serial Converter Module should be connected to the serial cable shield at the shell of the 9-pin sub-miniature D connector. Important: The DSI cable shield must be properly grounded in order to provide EMC protection. On the PowerFlex 4 and 40 drive that means that Pin 16 of the drive control terminal block must be connected to the drive earth ground terminal.
Installing the Serial Converter Module Removing the Serial Converter Module ATTENTION: Risk of injury or equipment damage exists. If the serial converter module is transmitting control I/O to the drive (indicated by a solid green diamond LED), the drive may fault when you remove or reset the serial converter.

Chapter Configuring the Serial Converter Module Chapter 3 provides instructions and information for configuring the serial converter module. Topic Page Configuration Tools Using DriveExplorer Using Terminal Emulation Software Setting the RS-232 Serial Port Rate Setting the Fault Action Resetting the Serial Converter Module For a list of parameters, refer to Appendix Serial Converter Module...
Configuring the Serial Converter Module Using DriveExplorer With DriveExplorer software, you can edit parameters in both the serial converter module and the connected DSI-enabled drive. On PowerFlex 4/40 drives (or other DSI products), you can also edit parameters in any of the attached peripherals.
Configuring the Serial Converter Module Using Terminal Emulation Software This section provides detailed instructions on how to use terminal emulation software to access the serial converter module so that you can view and edit its parameters or view its event queue. A variety of terminal emulation programs can be used to establish a serial connection between a computer and the serial converter module.

TIP: Select File > Save to save the HyperTerminal configuration that you just created. In future connections, you can select the saved configuration and quickly connect to the serial converter module.
Configuring the Serial Converter Module Setting the RS-232 Serial Port Rate The serial port rate, sometimes called baud rate or DF1 rate, is the speed at which the computer and serial converter module communicate over RS-232. You can select a serial port rate of 9600, 19.2K, or 38.4K. The factory-default serial port rate is 9600.
Configuring the Serial Converter Module Setting the Fault Action By default, when DF1 serial communications are disrupted (for example, a serial cable is disconnected) and control I/O is being transmitted, the serial converter module and connected drive respond by faulting. You can set a different response to communication disruptions using Parameter 04 - [Comm Flt Action].
Configuring the Serial Converter Module Resetting the Serial Converter Module Change to settings on some module parameters require that you reset the serial converter module before the new settings take effect. You can reset the module by cycling power to the module or by using Parameter 05 - [Reset Module].
