Safety Instructions
Overview
This chapter states the safety instructions that must be followed when
installing and operating the NPBA-01 PROFIBUS Adapter Module. If
neglected, physical injury and death may follow, or damage may occur
to the frequency converter, the motor and driven equipment. The
material in this chapter must be studied before attempting any work on,
or with, the unit.
Warnings and Notes
This manual distinguishes two sorts of safety instructions. Warnings
are used to inform of conditions which can, if proper steps are not
taken, lead to a serious fault condition, physical injury and death. Notes
are used when the reader is required to pay special attention or when
there is additional information available on the subject. Notes are less
crucial than Warnings, but should not be disregarded.
Warnings Readers are informed of situations that can result in serious physical
injury and/or serious damage to equipment with the following symbols:
Notes Readers are notified of the need for special attention or additional
information available on the subject with the following symbols:
Dangerous Voltage Warning: warns of situations
in which a high voltage can cause physical injury
and/or damage equipment. The text next to this
symbol describes ways to avoid the danger.
General Warning: warns of situations which can
cause physical injury and/or damage equipment by
means other than electrical. The text next to this
symbol describes ways to avoid the danger.
Electrostatic Discharge Warning: warns of
situations in which an electrostatic discharge can
damage equipment. The text next to this symbol
describes ways to avoid the danger.
CAUTION! Caution aims to draw special attention to a
particular issue.
Note: Note gives additional information or points out
more information available on the subject.

General Safety
Instructions
WARNING! All electrical installation and maintenance work on the
ACS 600 should be carried out by qualified electricians.
The ACS 600 and adjoining equipment must be properly earthed.
Do not attempt any work on a powered ACS 600. After switching off the
mains, always allow the intermediate circuit capacitors 5 minutes to
discharge before working on the frequency converter, the motor or the
motor cable. It is good practice to check (with a voltage indicating
instrument) that the frequency converter is in fact discharged before
beginning work.
The ACS 600 motor cable terminals are at a dangerously high voltage
when mains power is applied, regardless of motor operation.
There can be dangerous voltages inside the ACS 600 from external
control circuits when the ACS 600 mains power is shut off. Exercise
appropriate care when working with the unit. Neglecting these
instructions can cause physical injury and death.
WARNING! There are several automatic reset functions in the
ACS 600. If selected, they reset the unit and resume operation after a
fault. These functions should not be selected if other equipment is not
compatible with this kind of operation, or dangerous situations can be
caused by such action.
More Warnings and Notes are printed at appropriate instances along
the text.

This Guide
CDP 311 CDP 311 is a control panel used for supervising, programming and
controlling the ACS 600 frequency converter. For further information,
see the
ACS 600 Programming Manual.
Communication Module
Communication Module is the parameter name/parameter selection
name for a device through which the ACS 600 is connected to an
external serial communication network, e.g. to an open fieldbus. The
NPBA-01 Adapter Module is one of the fieldbus adapter modules
available for the ACS 600. The communication with the fieldbus
adapter is activated with Parameter 98.2 COMM.MODULE.
NPBA-01 PROFIBUS
Adapter Module
The NPBA-01 Adapter Module is one of the optional fieldbus adapter
modules available for the ACS 600. The NPBA-01 is a device through
which the ACS 600 is connected to a PROFIBUS serial communication
bus.
Parameter A parameter is an operating instruction for the ACS 600 frequency
converter. Parameters can be read and programmed with the CDP 311
Control Panel, or through the NPBA-01 Module.

Chapter 2 – Overview
Overview
This chapter contains a short description of the PROFIBUS standard
and the NPBA-01 Adapter Module, an option package delivery
checklist, and warranty information.
PROFIBUS
PROFIBUS is an open serial communication standard that enables
data exchange between all kinds of automation components. There are
three main variations of PROFIBUS: PROFIBUS-FMS, PROFIBUS-DP
and PROFIBUS-ISP. The NPBA-01 PROFIBUS Adapter Module is
compatible with the PROFIBUS-FMS and PROFIBUS-DP protocols.
The physical transmission medium of the bus is a twisted pair cable
(according to the RS 485 standard). The maximum length of the bus
cable is 200 to 1200 metres, depending on the selected transmission
rate (see Appendix C). Up to 31 stations can be connected to the same
PROFIBUS system without the use of repeaters. With repeaters, it is
possible to connect 127 stations (including the repeaters, and the PLC)
to the system.
In PROFIBUS communication, the master station – usually a
programmable logic controller (PLC) – polls the slaves which respond
and take the actions requested by the master. It is also possible to
send a command to several slaves at the same time; in this case the
slaves send no response message to the master. Communication
between the slaves is not possible on a PROFIBUS link.
The PROFIBUS protocol family is specified in the DIN 19245 Standard,
Parts 1 to 3. The communication with a drive is discussed in
PROFIDRIVE – The PROFIBUS Profile for Adjustable Speed Drives.
For further information on PROFIBUS, refer to the above-mentioned
standards.
