Appendix D
Routing Capability for Networked
Drives
Appendix D provides information about the unique routing capability for
up to 127 PowerFlex 7-Class drives on a BACnet MS/TP network when
using the DriveExplorer (Full version only) drive software tool.
First, configure the 20-COMM-B adapter in each networked drive using
the procedures described in Chapter 2
. Then use a 1203-USB or
1203-SSS converter to connect the first networked drive to a laptop or
desktop PC with DriveExplorer Full. Thereafter, you can use
DriveExplorer Full to route to any drive on the BACnet MS/TP network
to configure or monitor the drive or any of its connected peripherals.
