Product Details
The media for the fieldbus is a RG-6 quad-shielded cable or fibre with support for media redundancy. The RCNA-01 Adapter module supports only RG-6 quad shielded cable (coax) for the bus connection. ControlNet is flexible in topology options (bus, tree, star) to meet various application needs. The fieldbus speed is 5 Mbits/s.
The RCNA-01 is compatible with all scanners working according to the ControlNet International ControlNet specifications.
The RCNA-01 ControlNet Adapter module can not originate connections on its own, but a scanner node can open a connection towards it. The ControlNet protocol is implemented according to the ControlNet international specification for a Communication adapter
Through the RCNA-01 ControlNet Adapter module, it is possible to:
*give control commands to the drive (Start, Stop, Run enable, etc.)
*feed a motor speed or torque reference to the drive
*give a process actual value or a process reference to the PID controller of the drive
*read status information and actual values from the drive
*read and write drive parameter values
*reset a drive fault
A connection to the RCNA-01 ControlNet Adapter can be opened from a ControlNet scanner. The size of the connection can be up to 450 bytes in each direction.
The module is equipped with two BNC contacts for connection to ControlNet. If a redundant operation is desired, both connectors are used; otherwise, connector A or B is used.
The module is also equipped with a NAP (Network access port) for temporary connection of configuration tools, e.g, a PC card. The minimum Network update time (NUT) of the module is 5 ms.
The adapter module is mounted into an option slot inside the drive.

The RCNA-01 is to be inserted into its option slot inside the drive. The module is held in place with plastic retaining clips and two screws. The screws also provide the earthing of the I/O cable shield connected to the module, and interconnect the GND signals of the module and the control board of the drive.
On installation of the module, the signal and power connection to the drive is automatically made through a 34-pin connector.
Mounting procedure:
*Insert the module carefully into its position inside the drive until the retaining clips lock the module into position.
*Fasten the two screws (included) to the stand-offs.
*Set the bus termination switch of the module to the required position.
