Remove and Install the Control Pod (Standard) for Frame 7

Replace a control pod assembly with kit catalog number 20-750-MCPOD1-F7M (regenerative drive or bus supply) or 20-750-MCPOD2-F7M (low harmonic drive). Follow these steps to remove and install the control pod assembly.
  1. Review the product advisories in Before You Begin.
  2. Remove power from the system.
  3. Open the enclosure door.
  4. Remove the protective guard. See Remove and Install the Protective Guard for Frame 7.
  5. Remove the control pod cover. See Remove and Install the Control Pod Cover for Frame 7.
  6. If a human interface module (HIM) is installed in the HIM cradle, remove the HIM.
    IMPORTANT: The minimum inside bend radius for fiber-optic cable is 50 mm (2 in.). Any bends with a shorter inside radius can permanently damage the fiber-optic cable. Signal attenuation increases as inside bend radius is decreased.

  7. Remove the fiber-optic cables from the applicable ports on the fiber transceiver boards.
    • AC precharge circuit board fiber-optic cable from the ACPC port.
    • If present, torque accuracy module fiber-optic cable from the TAM port.
    • Line side converter power module fiber-optic cables from the L0 port.
    • Motor side inverter power module fiber-optic cable from the M0 port.

  8. Route the fiber-optic cables through the grommets in the bottom of the control pod carefully, and coil the fiber-optic cable and secure in a protected location. Follow the minimum bend radius requirement.
  9. If an option module is installed, complete these steps:
    1. Disconnect the plug-in terminal blocks.
    2. Loosen the two captive thumbscrews that secure the option module to the control pod chassis and remove the option module. Final torque for reassembly is 0.45 N•m (4.0 lb•in).
  10. Record any settings that are made on these main control board selectors or jumpers (A in the illustration):
    • Control selector
    • Embedded
      EtherNet/IP™
       address selectors
    • Safety enable jumper
    • Hardware enable jumper
  11. Disconnect any Ethernet cables from the Ethernet ports (B) on the bottom of the main control board.
  12. Disconnect the plug-in terminal block TB1 (C) on the bottom of the main control board.
  13. If present, disconnect the
    DPI™
     cable from the mini-DIN Port 2 connector (D) on the control pod chassis.

  14. Disconnect connector P14 from connector J14 on the fiber-optic interface board.
  15. If installed, disconnect the customer supplied 24V supply power wire connector P13 from connector J13 on the fiber-optic interface board.
  16. Route all cables through the grommets (E) in the bottom of the control pod.

  17. Loosen the M5.5 x 13 mm Torx screw that secures the control pod assembly to the chassis.
  18. Loosen the two M5 captive screws that secure the bottom of the control pod assembly to the side panel and rotate the control pod assembly out from the enclosure.

  19. While supporting the control pod assembly, remove the three M5.5 x 13 mm Torx screws that secure the hinged mounting bracket to the inside edge of the enclosure and remove the control pod assembly.
    example of how to remove the frame 7 control pod and mounting bracket
  20. Install the hinged mounting bracket on the control pod assembly by using the five M5 x 12 mm Torx screws provided with the kit.

  21. Install the control pod in the reverse order of removal.
    IMPORTANT: Do not remove protective covers from wire harnesses, circuit board connectors, terminal blocks, and fiber-optic transceivers and ports unless used at the time of installation. For the product to meet the corrosive atmosphere rating, protective covers must remain installed in unused connectors during storage and operation.
  22. Make any necessary changes to the settings on these main control board selectors or jumpers:
    • Control selector
    • Embedded
      EtherNet/IP™
       address selectors
    • Safety enable jumper
    • Hardware enable jumper
  23. Without bending the cable to a radius less than 50 mm (2 in.), fully insert the fiber-optic cable into the transceiver.
    example of how to insert a fiber-optic cable into a transceiver
  24. Insert the transceiver and fiber-optic cable into the connector on the board, until you hear an audible ‘click.’
