What to do if there is high input line in Rockwell DeviceNet?
To resolve a high input line or deceleration time that is too fast or an overhauling load on your Rockwell PCI Card: - Check the input line to ensure the voltage is within operating specifications. - Increase deceleration time using the accel/decel rotary switch.
What to do if shaft rotation is blocked in Rockwell PCI Card?
If the Rockwell PCI Card's shaft rotation is blocked, or there's excessive driven load, or input power is incorrectly wired, or there is a motor section ground fault, take the following steps: - Check for obstructions to shaft rotation. - Reduce excessive load. - Increase accel/decel time using the rotary switches or parameter 32 [ACCEL TIME] and parameter 33 - [DECEL TIMe]. - Verify that input wiring is correctly connected. - Check motor section for ground fault. Replace VSM500 unit if a ground fault is detected.
What to do if there is excessive current to motor in Rockwell PCI Card?
If the Rockwell PCI Card has excessive current to the motor for an extended time due to excessive load or short circuit, take the following steps: - Check for any obstructions to shaft rotation. - Reduce the driven load. - Check that the input wiring is correctly connected. - Check for blower obstruction. - Replace the blower if required.
What to do if the operating environment is too hot for Rockwell DeviceNet?
If the Rockwell PCI Card is experiencing issues related to the operating environment being too hot, or if there's excessive driven load, take the following steps: - Verify that the ambient temperature at the application site is within the specified operating range. - Check for any obstructions to the blower and replace it if necessary. - Reduce the load or ensure the VSM500 unit matches the application requirements.
