9.20.1 CAN-Bus activation with AKD-CC models
AKD-CC drive models are Drives, which support EtherCAT and CAN fieldbus types within
one common software. These CC drive models allow selecting a fieldbus support by setting
the DRV.TYPE parameter to a certain value. CC drive models are delivered with EtherCAT
set active.
To activate CANopen, the DRV.TYPE parameter must be changed
1. by software: connect the PC to the AKD and change the parameter DRV.TYPE in the
WorkBench terminal screen (see DRV.TYPE parameter documentation) or
2. by hardware: with the rotary switches S1 & S2 at the front and the button B1 on the top
side of the Drive.
The following steps are needed for changing the fieldbus type from EtherCAT to CAN with
the rotary switches.
1. Set the rotary switches on the front side of the AKD to the value of 89.
Set S1 to 8 and S2 to 9
2. Press the button B1 for about 3 seconds (starts DRV.NVSAVE).
The seven segment display shows
Cn
during the process of changing DRV.TYPE to
CAN.
Do not switch off the 24[V] power supply while the seven segment shows Cn!
3. Wait until the seven segment display goes back to the original state, no the drive is pre-
pared for CAN.
4. Power cycle the drive by switching the 24 V power supply
off
and then
on
again.
The seven segment display shows Er (Error) in case that the DRV.TYPE instruction failed.
In this case please power cycle the drive and contact the Kollmorgen customer support for
further help.
