Procedure for "Removing a component"
1. Deactivate the affected component or the drive object.
2. Remove the DRIVE‑CLiQ connector.
3. Remove the supply voltage of the component and uninstall the component.
Procedure for "Installing a component"
1. Install the component and reconnect the supply voltage.
2. Reconnect the DRIVE‑CLiQ cable at the same location (port). The cable must have the
same length as the old one.
3. Activate the affected component or drive object.
Parameters for topology comparator and component replacement
In the expert list, you can use CU parameter p9906 to specify how the electronic rating plates
are compared for all the components of a Control Unit. The type of comparison can be changed
subsequently for each individual component by using p9907/p9908 or right-clicking in the
topology. All data on the electronic rating plate is compared by default.
● If p9909 = 1, the serial number and the hardware version of the new replaced component
will be transferred automatically from the actual topology to the target topology and then
saved to non-volatile memory.
● When p9909 = 0, serial numbers and hardware versions are not automatically transferred.
The setting p9901 = 1 enables the spare parts / components replacement without tool
support to be carried out. The new serial number of the spare part is automatically transferred
from the actual topology to the target topology and saved in non-volatile memory. Prerequisite
is that the replaced components are of the same type and have the same article number, e.g.
"6SL3055-0AA00-5BA2". The last or last two digits of the article number (depending on the
component type) are not checked, as the HW version, for example, is coded in these. This
mechanism is also applied when several components are replaced.
Modified wiring following module replacement
In the default setting for the topology comparator, modified wiring configurations of
DRIVE‑CLiQ components (e.g. cross-exchange) cannot be accepted for safety reasons and
a fault is generated.
If a cross-exchange of components is required (i.e. existing components are replaced with
other existing components, and no spare parts are used), e.g. for troubleshooting purposes,
the topology comparator must be reduced via parameter p9906, or preferably via p9907/p9908;
alternatively, by right-clicking in the topology.
Note
In this case, incorrect insertion of components is no longer monitored.
