depending on the protection class involved.
There is a risk of severe physical injury or material damage
if any of the covers are removed or the unit is installed, used
or operated incorrectly.
Further details are given in the documentation.
All system design, transport, installation, commissioning and
maintenance work must be carried out by qualified specialist
personnel (according to IEC 60364, CENELEC HD 384 or
DIN VDE 0100 and IEC 60664 or DIN VDE 0110 and
national safety regulations).
Qualified specialist personnel in the sense of these safety
instructions are persons who are experienced in the system
design, installation, erection, commissioning and operation
of the product and have the qualifications required for such
work.
2. Correct use
Converters are intended for installation in electrical plant or
machinery.
When installed in machines the converter may not be
commissioned (i.e. operation of the converter may not be
started) until it is evident that the machine complies with EC
directive 98/37/EC (Machine Directive) (formerly
89/392/EEC). Also EN 60204 must be observed.
Commissioning (i.e. operation) is only permitted in
compliance with the EMC directive (89/336/EEC).
Our converters satisfy the requirements of low voltage
directive 73/23/EEC. The standards of the series EN 50178 /
DIN VDE 0160 in conjunction with EN 60439-1 / VDE 0660
Part 500 and EN 60146 / VDE 0558 are applicable to drive
converters.
The technical data and the connection conditions are shown
on the rating plate and in the documentation. They must be
observed.
3. Transport and storage
The instructions for transport, storage and correct handling
must be observed.
Climatic conditions are to be maintained according to
EN 50178.
4. Installation
The installation and cooling must be in accordance with the relevant
documentation.
All converters must be protected against undue mechanical shocks
or stress. In particular no components may be bent and/or no
insulation spacing may be altered during transport and handling. Do
not touch electronic components or contacts.
Converters contain components susceptible to electrostatic
discharge (ESD), which are easily damaged by static electricity or
incorrect handling. Do not damage mechanically or destroy electrical
components (health hazard possible).
5. Electrical connection
The appropriate national safety regulations (e.g. BGV A3) must be
observed when working on converters, which are connected, to the
electricity supply.
The electrical installation must be executed in accordance with the
relevant regulations (e.g. cable cross-sections, fuses, earthing).
Additional instructions are given in the documentation.
Instructions on EMC compliant installation, such as screening,
earthing, filters and cable routing, are also given in the converters
documentation. These also apply to converters bearing the CE mark.
Compliance with the limits specified in EMC legislation is the
responsibility of the plant or the machinery manufacturer.
6. Operation
If necessary, plant or machinery in which converters are fitted must
be equipped with additional monitoring and safety facilities in
accordance with the relevant regulations, e.g. the law on technical
equipment, the appropriate safety regulations etc.
Do not touch any parts of the equipment which may be live or any
power connections even after the converter has been isolated from
the electricity supply, as capacitors may remain charged. Follow the
instructions given on warning labels.
All covers and doors must be kept closed during operation.
7. Service and maintenance
All instructions given in the documentation must be observed.

Applications and risks
Units from the LV7000 series are designed for the speed control of three-phase standard induction motors,
taking the technical motor and unit specifications into consideration.
In addition, LV7000-3 units may control also synchronous motors with permanent magnets.
The integration of the unit into plants or drive systems is not within the sphere of product responsibility of
Converteam.
This concerns the functions and operating safety of the entire system, as well as repercussions, if any, on
other facilities and systems.
The user of the unit is hence responsible for ensuring that the applicable technical standards and rules,
statutory requirements and codes in force at the place of installation are adhered to in conjunction with the
engineering and installation of the overall system.
The following information is to help to assess the risks related to the use of the unit. It is the user’s
responsibility to take any measures suitable to address these risks.
•Under incorrect or unwanted conditions, the motor can work
- at an incorrect speed
- at a high overspeed
- and / or in the wrong direction.
•An excessive supply voltage drop or an interruption of the supply voltage causes an immediate shutdown.
The motor connected is then no longer controlled by the converter.
The user of the unit must take suitable measures in order to master these cases (such as mechanical
protection devices, additional peripheral electrical monitoring and safety equipment, redundant configuration)
in order to avoid personal injury and damage to property, as well as to minimize interference with the ongoing
process based on a risk analysis to be carried out by the user.

1 Introduction
Ethernet Option Board / 700.002 735 AE01 1-1
1 Introduction
Converteam LV7000 frequency converters can be connected to Ethernet using an Ethernet fieldbus board
OPT-CI.
The OPT-CI can be installed in the card slots D or E.
Every appliance connected to an Ethernet network has two identifiers; a MAC address and an IP address. The
MAC address (Address format: xx:xx:xx:xx:xx:xx ) is unique to the appliance and cannot be changed. The
Ethernet board's MAC address can be found on the sticker attached to the board or by using the Converteam
IP tool software NCIP Config.
In a local network, the user can define IP addresses as long as all units connected to the network are given
the same network portion of the address. For more information about IP addresses, contact your Network
Administrator. Overlapping IP addresses cause conflicts between appliances. For more information about
setting IP addresses, see Section 3, Installation.
Internal components and circuit boards are at high potential when the frequency
converter is connected to the power source. This voltage is extremely dangerous and
may cause death or severe injury if you come into contact with it.

2.5 Connections and Wiring
The Ethernet board supports 10/100Mb speeds in both Full and Half-duplex modes. The boards must be
connected to the Ethernet network with a shielded CAT-5e cable. Use a so-called crossover cable if you want
to connect the Ethernet option board directly to the master appliance.
Use only industrial standard components in the network and avoid complex structures to minimize the length
of response time and the amount of incorrect dispatches.

3.2 IP Tool NCIP Config
To begin using the Converteam Ethernet board, you need to set an IP address. The factory default IP address
is 192.168.0.10. Before connecting the board to the network, its IP addresses must be set according to the
network. For more information about IP addresses, contact your Network Administrator.
Once the program is installed successfully, you can launch it by selecting it in the 'Windows' 'Start' menu.
Follow these instructions to set the IP addresses. Select 'Help' 'Manual' if you want more information about
the software features.
Step 1. Scan network nodes. Select 'Scan' 'Configuration' and wait until the devices connected to the bus
in the tree structure are displayed on the left of the screen.
Note: Some switches block broadcast messages, and in that case, each network node must be
scanned separately.
Step 2. Set IP addresses. Change the node’s IP settings according to the network IP settings. The program
will report conflicts with a red color in a table cell.
