Make sure to remove the input power while performing maintenance.
Make sure to perform maintenance after checking the DC link capacitor has discharged. The bus
capacitors in the drive main circuit can still be charged even after the power is turned off. Check
the voltage between terminal P or P1 and N using a tester before proceeding.
The RSi-GX series drive has ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive components. Take protective
measures against ESD before touching them for inspection or installation.
Do not change any inner parts and connectors. Never modify the drive.
