Maintenance and Troubleshooting
Maintenance
The OMNIDRIVE is designed to function with minimum maintenance.
Periodic Maintenance
Normally the only maintenance required is removal of superficial dust and dirt from the drive and a quick
check of cable insulation and connections.
Cleaning
To clean the drive, use an OSHA approved nozzle that provides compressed air under low pressure <20
kPa (30 psi) to blow the exterior surface and the vents clean.
Cable Inspection
Inspect the connections, particularly the power connections, to ensure their tightness.
•
All power connections should be torqued to 1.2 Nm (11 lb-in).
•
D-shell signal connectors can be inspected for proper seating.
•
Visually inspect all cables for abrasion.
Data Transfer
After you have configured the drive and tuned the drive, the data stored in the EEPROM personality
module should be saved off-line. Saving the parameters off line will allow you to clone several machines
with the same mechanics and provides an emergency backup of the drive data.
To transfer the data from the drive to a PC:
1. While on-line with a drive, click on
File
in the toolbar menu.
2. Select
Save As..
., the Save As window will appear.
3. Enter the file name and press ENTER or choose OK to save.
To transfer the data from a PC to a drive:

2. Choose

CAUTION
DC bus capacitors may retain hazardous voltages for several minutes after
input power has been removed, but will normally discharge in several seconds.
Measure the DC bus voltage to verify it has reached a safe level each time
power is removed before working on the drive; or wait for the time indicated in
the warning on the front of the drive.
Failure to observe this precaution could result in severe bodily injury or loss of
life.
