Setting the RBM Delay Time
Using DriveExplorer
In this procedure you will break SERCOS ring communications, set the
delay time parameter using DriveExplorer software, and re-establish
SERCOS communication.
The following hardware and software tools are required to provide
the necessary communication link between your personal computer
and the Kinetix 6000 drive system running RSLogix 5000 software.
Removing SERCOS Communication
Follow these steps to remove (break) SERCOS communications.
1. Remove three-phase and control power from the Kinetix 6000
drive system.
2. Remove one of the SERCOS fiber-optic cables.
Fiber-optic cable connections (Tx and Rx) are located on the top
of each IAM/AM.
3. Re-apply three-phase and control power.

ATTENTION
To avoid personal injury or equipment damage, at least one end
of a SERCOS fiber-optic cable must be disconnected from the
drive. This ensures that motion will not occur while changes are
being made to the time delay parameter.
