Set the Additional Bus 
Capacitance Parameter
In this section you set the Add Bus Cap parameter by using DriveExplorer 
software.
The following hardware and software tools are required to provide the 
necessary communication link between your personal computer and the 
Kinetix 6200 and Kinetix 6500 drive system running DriveExplorer software.
Table 124 - Kinetix 6000 System Requirements
Remove Sercos Communication
Follow these steps to remove (break) Sercos communication.
1. Remove three-phase and control power from the Kinetix 6200 and 
Kinetix 6500 drive system.
2. Remove one of the Sercos fiber-optic cables. 
Fiber-optic cable connections (Tx and Rx) are on the top of each IAM 
and AM module.
3. Re-apply three-phase and control power.
TIP You can also set the Add Bus Cap parameter by changing IDN parameter 
values. Refer to Appendix E on page 253
 for more information.
TIP You can use this procedure to change other parameters too, the Analog 
Output parameters, for example.
