The following information applies to all drive types compatible with
the adapter module, unless otherwise stated.

Ethernet POWERLINK connection configuration
After the adapter module has been installed according to the
instructions in chapters Mechanical installation and Electrical
installation , you must prepare the drive for communication with the
module.
The detailed procedure of activating the module for POWERLINK
communication with the drive depends on the drive type. Normally,
you must adjust a parameter to activate the communication. See
the drive-specific start-up procedures starting on page 40 .
Once communication between the drive and the adapter module
has been established, several configuration parameters are copied
to the drive. These parameters are shown in the tables below and
must be checked first and adjusted where necessary.
Note that not all drives display descriptive names for the
configuration parameters. To help you identify the parameters in
different drives, the names displayed by each drive are given in
grey boxes in the tables.
Note: The new settings take effect only when the adapter module
is powered up the next time or when the fieldbus adapter refresh
parameter is activated.
