Table 84 - 20-COMM-* Network Adapter Compatibility with 750-Series Drives
Frame 1 Drives Installation Recommendations
• PowerFlex Frame 1 drives require the use of the 20-750-20COMM-F1
Communication Carrier kit. This kit contains the required adapter plate.
• Only install the 20-750-20COMM-F1 Communication Carrier in Port 4.
See page 244
for port locations. Port 5 will not be accessible when this
module is installed.
Frame 2 and Larger Drives Installation Recommendations
• Installing the 20-750-20COMM Communication Carrier in Port 6 is
recommended. Installing in Port 4 or Port 5 will make the adjacent left
port inaccessible to other option modules, and may interfere with network
cable connections.
