8.4.1
Engineering via interface adapters (serial)
Since your unit supports the "serial" communication option, you can use a suitable inter-
face adapter for engineering.
The interface adapter is additional hardware that you can obtain from SEW-
EURODRIVE. You can use it to connect your engineering PC to the corresponding
communication option of the unit.
The following table shows you the different types of interface adapters available, and for
which units they are suitable.
Since most PCs are now equipped with USB interfaces instead of RS232 interfaces, the
following chapters only deal with the USB11A interface adapter.
How to connect the interface adapter to MOVIDRIVE
