5 Electrical installation
5.12 Connector: USB [X19]
The BL 4000-M / BL 4000-D servo drive has a Type Mini-B USB connector.
The correct operation requires a short USB cable (< 3 m) and the correct installation and
earthing of the servo drive. If excessive malfunctions/faults lead to communication
problems (frozen communication), the USB connector can be briefly disconnected to
restart the communication.
In addition, we recommend using certified, double-shielded cables of the following type :
Type AB type (USB 2.0 connecting cable, type A connector to type Mini-B connector)
AWG24-2C
Non-EMC-compliant wiring of the servo drive and motor
In case of non-EMC-compliant wiring of the servo drive and motor, compensating
electric current may flow via the connected computer and the USB interface. This may
lead to communication problems. To avoid this, we recommend using an electrically
isolated USB adapter "Delock USB Isolator" (type 62588 by Delock) or a comparable
adapter.
Use USB only during commissioning
The USB interface should only be used during commissioning and not as a process
interface in an application. In an industrial environment, the electrically much more
robust Ethernet interface should be preferred instead.
