Warranty Information
Manufacturer warrants equipment for 12 months after installation or 24 months from manufacturing, whichever is earlier.
The RETA-01 Ethernet Adapter module allows ABB drives to connect to an Ethernet network, supporting Modbus/TCP and EtherNet/IP protocols. It enables control commands, reference feeding, status reading, parameter changes, and fault resets. Installation involves inserting the module into a drive slot, connecting an Ethernet cable, and configuring network settings like IP address. Communication is established through defined protocols and profiles.
