Connecting a PC
You can connect a PC to the drive. To communicate with the drive, the PC must
have suitable software (for example, Drive composer) installed.
If you have an assistant control panel (ACH-AP-H or ACH-AP-W), use a USB data
cable (Type A - Type Mini-B, maximum length 3 m [9.8 ft]) to connect to the PC.
Connect the cable as follows:
1. Open the USB connector cover on the control panel.
2. Connect the USB cable Mini-B plug to the control panel USB connector.
3. Connect the USB cable A plug to the USB port of the PC. The panel shows text
“USB connected”.
Note: You cannot use the control panel keys when the drive is connected to a PC.
If you have a RDUM-01 blank panel or CDPI-02 panel bus adapter installed, use a
BCBL-01 USB-RJ45 converter to connect to the PC.
It is also possible to use a CCA-01 configuration adapter when the drive is not
connected to the power supply network or to an external 24 V supply. The CCA-01
does not operate if the drive is powered.
Installing options
The drive has two option module slots:
• Front option: Communication module slot under the front cover.
