4.3 Interconnect devices
The device is part of the Baumüller series b maXX BM4400, BM4600, BM4700 and can
be connected together with other Baumüller devices.
Because of the many possible combinations and of the many applications that can be op-
erated by b maXX BM4400, BM4600, BM4700 , we have refrained from drawing up a
guide for the interconnection of the devices in written form. Please contact the for you re-
sponsible sales department or the for you responsible employees of the application de-
partment, to discuss your concrete questions on the requirements to develop together a
solution for your problem.
4.3.1 Mix mode BM443X generation 1 and 2
In principle, BM443X generation 1 and 2 can be operated in mix mode.
The prerequisites are:
n A waiting time of 6 s must be observed before the drive can be enabled (pulse enable,
enabling the torque)
n The total DC link capacity of all connected devices must be lower than 20 mF.

NOTE!
Read the version code to identify BM443X generation 1 or generation 2, refer to ZEx-
planation version code– on page 130.
NOTE!
When replacing a BM443X generation 1 by a generation 2 device the fuses must be
adjusted as well, refer to ZFuses BM4X3X– from page 280.
