Solid state equipment has operational characteristics differing from those of
electromechanical equipment. Safety Guidelines for the Application, Installation and
Maintenance of Solid State Controls (publication SGI-1.1 available from your local Rockwell
Automation sales office or online at http://literature.rockwellautomation.com) describes
some important differences between solid state equipment and hard-wired
electromechanical devices. Because of this difference, and also because of the wide variety
of uses for solid state equipment, all persons responsible for applying this equipment must
satisfy themselves that each intended application of this equipment is acceptable.
In no event will Rockwell Automation, Inc. be responsible or liable for indirect or
consequential damages resulting from the use or application of this equipment.
The examples and diagrams in this manual are included solely for illustrative purposes.
Because of the many variables and requirements associated with any particular installation,
Rockwell Automation, Inc. cannot assume responsibility or liability for actual use based on
the examples and diagrams.

Before You Begin Remove all packing material, wedges, and braces from within and
around the components. After unpacking, check the item name-plate
catalog number against the purchase order.

Drive Component Box Contents

Drive Component Ships With
• Wiring plugs for motor power (MP) and motor/resistive brake
power (BC).
Axis Module (AM) • Wiring plug header for safe-off (SO) connector and motion
allowed jumper.
• Installation Instructions, publication 2094-IN004.
• Wiring plug for an external shunt resistor (RC).
Shunt Module (SM) • Wiring plug for the thermal switch (TS).
• Installation Instructions, publication 2094-IN004.

Motor and auxiliary feedback and I/O connectors are not provided.
Refer to the Kinetix Motion Control Selection Guide, publication
GMC-SG001, for connector kit catalog numbers.

IMPORTANT The integrated axis module (IAM) must be positioned in the

leftmost slot of the power rail. Position your axis modules (AM),
shunt module (SM), and slot filler modules (PRF) to the right of
the IAM.
The SM must be installed to the right of the last AM. Only slot
filler modules may be installed to the right of the SM.
Do not mount the SM on power rails with a follower IAM.
Common-bus follower IAMs will disable the internal, rail
mounted, and external shunt modules.

ATTENTION This drive contains ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) sensitive parts

and assemblies. You are required to follow static control
precautions when you install, test, service, or repair this
assembly. If you do not follow ESD control procedures,
components can be damaged. If you are not familiar with static
control procedures, refer to Allen-Bradley publication
8000-4.5.2, Guarding Against Electrostatic Damage or any other
applicable ESD Protection Handbook.

4 Kinetix 6000 Axis Module and Shunt Module

Installing the Kinetix 6000 These procedures assume you have mounted your power rail and
integrated axis module (IAM). Each power rail accommodates one
Drive Modules IAM and up to seven additional modules (either axis or shunt). You
must mount a slot filler in any slot not occupied by another module.

SHOCK HAZARD To avoid personal injury due to electrical shock, place a slot
filler module (catalog number 2094-PRF) in any empty slot on
the power rail.
Any power rail connector without a module installed will
disable the Kinetix 6000 system, however control power will
still be present.

Determining Mounting Order

IMPORTANT Mount axis modules according to ampere rating (highest to

lowest) from left to right starting with the highest ampere
rating.

ATTENTION
To avoid damage to the power rail during installation, do not
remove the protective boots until the module for each slot is
ready for mounting.

Mounting the Modules

Follow these steps to mount the IAM, AM, SM, and PRF modules. All
modules mount to the power rail using the same technique
(integrated axis module is shown).

1. Remove the protective boots from the power rail connectors.

IMPORTANT The IAM must be positioned in the leftmost slot of the

power rail. Position your axis modules, shunt module, and
slot filler modules to the right of the IAM.

2. Determine the next available slot and module for mounting.

3. Remove the label (applied to back and side of module) covering

the pins that mate with the power rail.

ATTENTION
To avoid damage to the pins located on the back of each
module (IAM, AM, SM, and PRF) and to make sure that
module pins mate properly with the power rail, hang
modules as shown in Steps 4...7.
The power rail must be mounted vertically on the panel
before hanging modules on the power rail. Do not mount
modules if the power rail is horizontal.

4. Hang the mounting bracket from the slot on the power rail.

TIP The IAM can have two or three power rail connectors and guide
pins, the AM can have one or two, all other modules have one.

6. Gently push the module against the power rail connectors and
into the final mounting position.

IAMs and 2094-AM05, -BM03, and -BM05 (double-wide) AMs.

8. Repeat Steps 1...7 for each AM, SM, or PRF module.
