9.2.1.3 Confirm connections (example: directly to PC)
You can turn on logic power to the drive through the X10 connector (mains power voltage is not needed for
communications).
Confirm that the link LEDs on the drive (green LED on the RJ45 connector) and on your PC are both
illuminated. If both LEDs are illuminated, then you have a working electrical connection.
The LCD display shows a sign, if the connection between AKD2G and WorkBench is active.
Use WorkBench to configure the drive by using the service interface.
9.2.1.4 System integration
MAC Address
The unique MAC address is pre-defined by the manufacturer (see nameplate).
Service IP Address
The AKD2G service port X20 supports auto-IP, DHCP and static IP addressing.
The drive is delivered with IP address 0.0.0.0. Depending on the connection (switch or PC) either DHCP or auto-IP
mechanism assignes a unique IP address.
WorkBench uses the IP address to detect AKD2G devices in the LAN and start communication. With WorkBench
you can set a static IP address for the drive (parameter IP.ADDRESS).
EtherCAT Node Address
The EtherCAT node address is assigned automatically by the EtherCAT master.
CAN Node ID
Set a CAN node ID for the drive in WorkBench (parameter CANBUS.NODEID).
PROFINET
The station name and IP address must be set manually through the PROFINET master.
9.2.1.5 Install and start WorkBench
WorkBench is available from the DVD included with the drive. WorkBench is also available on the Kollmorgen
