Removing an Axis From a Running Kinetix 5700 System Without Faulting the Rest

A Kinetix 5700 rail drawn twice: as commissioned with six modules from a 2198-P208 through to a capacitor module, and again with the 55 mm 2198-D032 pulled out leaving a dashed gap, annotated with the two ways out — shift every module right of the gap 55 mm left and re-drill, or leave the inverter bolted in place and inhibit it — and the warning that the rail cannot be opened until power is off and a meter says the bus is down

Getting the module off the rail is a different order of problem: control power and mains off, … Read more
