7. Maintenance And Inspection
Preventive maintenance and inspection is required to maintain the interface in
its optimal condition, and to ensure a long operational lifetime. Depending on
usage and operating conditions, perform a periodic inspection once every
three to six months. Before starting inspections, always turn off all power
supplies to connected drives, and wait at least five minutes after each drive’s
“CHARGE” lamp has gone out.
Inspection Points
• Check that the dust covers for all unused RJ45 ports are seated firmly in
their connectors.
• Check that the ASD communication cables are fully seated in both the
drive and interface RJ45 ports. Reseat if necessary.
• Check that there are no defects in any attached wire terminal crimp points.
Visually check that the crimp points are not scarred by overheating.
• Visually check all wiring and cables for damage. Replace as necessary.
• Clean off any accumulated dust and dirt.
• If use of the interface is discontinued for extended periods of time, apply
power at least once every two years and confirm that the unit still functions
properly.
• Do not perform hi-pot tests on the interface, as they may damage the unit.
Please pay close attention to all periodic inspection points and maintain a good
operating environment.
