Overview of the DeviceNet network and the FDNA-01 module 25
FDNA-01 DeviceNet adapter module
The FDNA-01 DeviceNet Adapter module is an optional device for
ABB drives. It enables the connection of the drive to a DeviceNet
network. The drive is considered a slave in the DeviceNet network.
Through the adapter module you can:
• give control commands to the drive (for example, Start, Stop,
Run enable)
• feed a motor speed or torque reference to the drive
• give the actual value or reference of the process to the PID
controller of the drive
• read status information and actual values from the drive
• change drive parameter values
• reset a drive fault.
The adapter module acts as a class 2 slave only with predefined
master-slave connection set services. These include the explicit
messaging, the poll-response service and the change of state/
cyclic service. The DeviceNet commands and services supported
by the adapter module are described in chapter Communication
protocol.
The adapter module is mounted into an option slot on the motor
control board of the drive. See the drive manuals for the module
placement options.
