VLT is a registered Danfoss trademark
Ethernet network connection
The Ethernet network connects directly to the BACLink Ethernet
portal (refer back to Figure 1). The connection is a 10baseT port.
Both Ethernet and Ethernet IP (BACnet IP) connect through this
connector.
To establish Ethernet communication with the BACLink portal and
VLT drives, the following must be completed:
1. Wiring
2. Setting IP address of portal
3. For port 2 connection, setting port 2 configuration jumpers
Procedure
1. Wiring
Wire Connections. Each BACLink portal can support up to 10
drives (see Figure 7). Any mix of VLT 2800 or VLT6000 drives is
supported.
The preferred portal-to-drive wiring is EIA-485 from port 2.
Connect portal Net+ to drive terminal 68 (+) and Net- to 69 (-).
Additional drives are connected pos-to-pos and neg-to-neg in
daisy chain fashion.
If required, port 1 can be factory-configured to connect the drives
through EIA-485.
