Installation Guide
- Power down the 9400 drive and isolate the mains before you start.
- Insert the module into the drive extension slot until it seats firmly.
- Tighten the mounting screw to hold the module in place.
- Wire the PROFIBUS RS 485 cable with shielded twisted pair.
- Terminate the bus at both physical ends of the segment.
- Connect external 24 V DC if the drive mains supply is not used.
- Keep cable length within 1,200 m per segment.
- Use repeaters to extend node count and cable distance.
- Check that the node address is unique on the bus.
Commissioning and Maintenance
- Set the PROFIBUS node address before you power up.
- The module detects baud rate automatically; no manual setting is needed.
- Map process data words in the master configuration.
- Choose Drivecom, Lenze drive control, or PROFIdrive profile as required.
- Verify live data exchange in the master diagnostics view.
- The plug-in design allows quick module swap without rewiring the cabinet.
- Check terminals and shielding at each service interval.
- Keep the cabinet within the -10 °C to +55 °C operating range.
Compatibility Notes
- Fits Lenze 9400 HighLine servo drives with a free extension slot.
- Works with PROFIBUS DP masters that support DP-V0 or DP-V1.

- Q: Which profiles does it support?
- A: Drivecom “Drive technology 20”, Lenze drive control, and PROFIdrive version 4.
- Q: Is it a stand-alone device?
- A: No. It needs a Lenze 9400 drive with a free extension slot.
- Q: What is the warranty?
- A: 12 months against manufacturing defects.
- Q: How fast do you ship?
- A: Within 12 to 24 hours via FedEx, UPS, or DHL.
