Introduction
The Baldor controls represent the latest technology in microprocessor
based motor controls. In addition to the user programmable parameters
available in every control, many different expansion boards are available
from Baldor to further customize the control to most any application.
Expansion boards are categorized by compatibility into two groups:
Group 1 and Group 2, see Table 1-1. A board from either group may be
used alone in a control. If two boards are to be used, one board must
be from Group 1 and the other from Group 2.
Note: Using two Group 1 or two Group 2 boards in the same control is
not allowed.

Software Setup
Configure Control Software for Device Net Mode
The Series H control operating mode must be set to Serial to use the
Device Net expansion board. There is no selection for Device Net on
the Level 1 Input block Operating mode parameter list. However,
selecting Serial with the Device Net expansion board installed will allow
operation of the Device Net board.
Many commands in the Command Language can be used regardless of
the setting of the control’s Operating Mode parameter (such as
changing and viewing parameters). However, commands intended to
control the motor shaft require the control be in the Serial (Device Net)
Mode.
Note: The firmware version of the Series H control must support the
Baldor Binary Protocol (BBP). To confirm that BBP is supported,
perform the following:
Scroll to the Level 2 Communications block, and view the
selections. If RS485BBP is available, the software version is
compatible with the Device Net expansion board. Otherwise,
contact Baldor to obtain a software update.
During power up, the control checks if the communication board
is installed. If an RS485 board is installed, the RS485BBP
protocol is automatically selected during power up.

Device Net Configuration
The Device Net expansion board is a Device Net Group 2 Only Slave
device using the predefined master/slave connection set, as defined by
the ODVA. It is capable of explicit messaging, as well as polled and/or
COS/Cyclic I/O. The interface is based on the Baldor Binary Protocol
(BBP) command set.
This EDS file (Electronic Data Sheets) is used by Device Net equipment
to communicate with the BBP of the Baldor Device Net expansion
board. The Baldor EDS file is provided on a diskette that is shipped with
the expansion board. A Device Net configuration tool, such as
Allen-Bradley “Device Net Manager” software should be used to
configure the Device Net expansion board. The EDS file is also
available on the Baldor World Wide WEB page (www.baldor.com).
EXB I/O Instances
The input and output assembly instances are predefined I/O data
formats that can be selected based on your application. If an I/O
connection is being used, the selected I/O assembly instance
determines the size and format of the data. Only one input instance and
one output instance can be selected. The Input and Output instances
should be set using a Device Net configuration tool prior to connection
to a host device.
Note: Instances 105 and 155 are factory preset. These instances must
be properly set for your application.
Elements of an I/O instance can be 1 to 32 bits in length and can
reference any of the Baldor Binary Protocol (BBP) transactions
supported by the Device Net expansion board (see Section 6 of
this manual). Each assembly instance can contain no more than
8 bytes.
Tables 5-1 and 5-2 defines the format of the Input and Output Assembly
Instances.

TableSelect is not implemented at this time.
When a PLC updates memory in the middle of a double integer write of
PositionRef, a problem may occur. If the first integer is written and the
PLC updates the memory of a networked device, the position information
is wrong (second integer is missing). To avoid this problem, be sure the
CommandMode (T#5) is not set to PositionCmd until after both integers
are written.
ꢄ
Torque and Position commands are not implemented for the Series 15H

Section 6
Command Language
Transaction Specification
This section contains a detailed list of the transactions currently
supported by the protocol. The list includes the transaction
number, name, type description, and a detailed specification of
the required and returned data.
Note: Some transactions are not supported by all control types.
Also some controls require variations in commanded data.
Where these exceptions exist, they will be identified in the
text.
How To Read The Transaction Specification
The transaction table provides quick access to relevant
information about each transaction. When necessary a
transaction will be explained in more detail in the sections that
follow.
Transaction Number (T#)
The transaction number is the identification of the command. As
mentioned in Section 3, the maximum number of transactions is
256 (250 – 255 are reserved for future use.)
Command Language 6-1
Name
The ‘Name’ field refers to a ‘C’ style variable for function names
associated with the transaction. Use of these names is not
necessary to interface with the transaction. These names may
be used in present and future software drivers and libraries
provided by Baldor. When used in conjunction with Baldor
software tools, the transaction name is case sensitive.
Type
There are three basic transaction types: Set, Get, and those
which do both: Set/Get.
S
‘Set’ transactions are used to change internal values, or
execute one–time (nonmodal) commands. As a general rule
most ‘set’ transactions pass data to the control, but do not
return any. Most execution ‘set’ commands do not pass or
return data.
S
S
‘Get’ transactions are used to retrieve internal values or
control conditions. Most ‘get’ transactions return data but do
not pass data.
‘Set/Get’ transactions do both functions. Usually these
transaction always return data, but only accept or pass data
when a ‘set’ or change function is occurring. When no data is
passed, the ‘Set/Get’ functions as a ‘Get’ or read–only
transaction.
When a transaction does not fit these general rules, both passed
and returned data fields will be clearly specified.
6-2 Command Language
Data Field
The Data Field defines the data transfer requirements of the
application layer message. This field describes the data using
the ‘data type’ defined in Section 2.l. Commas separate
individual elements of data.
As previously discussed in Section 3, there are two types of
application layer packets–. Command and Response.
Command packets ALWAYS contain a transaction number
(USINT). Response packets ALWAYS contain a transaction
number (USINT) and a status (USINT). The transaction
specification is only concerned with the data field portion of these
messages. The transaction number and status are assumed to
be present, and are not shown in the specification.
In transactions that fit the basic Set, Get, and Set/Get definitions,
only a single data field is described in the specification. In these
cases it is assumed that a ‘Set’ transaction has only Command
packet data. A ‘Get’ has only Response packet data. And a
‘Set/Get’ has the same data in the Command and Response
packet, unless it is being used to ‘Get’ only, in which case there
is no Command data.
Transactions are not required to conform to these basic rules.
When such exceptions exist, both their Command and Response
data fields will be described in detail. The command data field is
preceded by a C:, the response data field is preceded by a R: for
identification purposes only.
In some cases variable names are given in the data field
specification. These names are used to describe multiple
elements of a common data type. These names are not required
for use, but may be included in present and future software
drivers and libraries provided by Baldor. (When used with tools
provided by Baldor, variable names are case sensitive.)
Command Language 6-3
Class
The class field indicates the product classes that support the
transaction. The product codes are as follows:
E
I
S
V
= Encoderless Vector
= Inverter
= Servo
= Vector
V* = Vector with custom software for positioning
Description
The description field gives information regarding the use of the
transaction. When possible the data range, scale, units, etc. are
also given. When it is not possible to fully describe the
transaction in the table, or when other information such as a
state diagram or event matrix must be given, further information
will be included in sections following the transaction table. An
asterisk is used to indicate default power up values where
applicable.

41 - WatchdogTime
Command
41 UINT WatchdogTime
Response
41 ST UINT WatchdogTime
Type: Set/Get
This transaction is used to change the value of the network
watchdog timer. The value is entered in milliseconds (mS). The
watchdog timer is used to detect a communications loss. When
the time between network commands exceeds the value stored
in this register, a fault is generated and the control is disabled.
Each time a network command is received, the internal timer is
reset to zero. The host must continuously send commands to
keep the timer reset. If desired a NULL transaction can be used
to reset the timer. Setting the timer to zero disables this function.
The minimum time value (other than zero) is 20mS (2). The
maximum value is 60S (6000). Resolution varies among product
classes.
Scale/ Units: 10mS
