12 3. Installing The Interf ace The ET H-100 connects to each dr ive via the drive’s common serial (logic level) communication por t, typically located on either the main drive contr ol board (G7) , on the f ront of the drive enclosure under a sm all snap-on cover (A7, S9), or on the rig ht- hand side of t he drive enclosure under a small snap-on[...]

13 If the EOI is alr eady connected via the RS485/RS232 channel, then no chang e is required . 6. Connect the drive’s commo n serial communication por t (CNU2) t o one of th e channe ls (A, B o r C) of the ETH-100 w ith the communi cation ca ble (communicat ion cable is not included with the interf ace kit ). W hen choosing cables for t his conne[...]

14 4. Remove the drive’s common serial comm unication port cover (r efer to the appropriate dr ive manual for inst ructions how to do this) .
