The SIMOVERT MASTERDRIVES drive system separates its electronics into distinct sections. The electronic box is the control-electronics housing — the compartment containing the control unit (CU), option boards, and associated modules. Inside this electronic box, a local bus provides the data path between the CU and every installed option module.
The 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 LBA (Local Bus Adapter) is the adapter board that physically interfaces the electronic box to the local bus. Without a functioning LBA, the local bus cannot communicate through the electronic box boundary — the control unit cannot address its option modules, and installed option boards appear absent to the drive system even when physically fitted.

Within the MASTERDRIVES electronic box, data flow across the local bus follows a defined path:
Control unit as bus master: The CU initiates all local bus communication — polling each installed option module at the configured scan rate, sending setpoint data to communication modules, and reading status data from encoder feedback boards.
Option modules as slaves: Installed option boards — communications modules, encoder feedback boards, technology boards — respond to the CU's polling cycles, providing feedback data and accepting configuration commands.
LBA as the physical adapter: The LBA provides the physical layer translation between the electronic box's internal connector geometry and the local bus electrical signals — ensuring reliable signal integrity across the adapter boundary at the scan rates required by the drive's real-time control cycle.
All option modules simultaneously unreachable: A MASTERDRIVES drive unit with multiple installed option boards (PROFIBUS communication, encoder feedback, technology board) reports all option modules as absent after a power cycle — despite all option boards being physically fitted. The 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 LBA is investigated and identified as the fault. Replacement immediately restores communication with all option modules.
Electronic box service — LBA replacement: A MASTERDRIVES electronic box undergoes preventive maintenance. The 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 LBA is replaced along with other electronic box components as part of a comprehensive electronic box renewal programme.
Q1: What distinguishes an LBA fault from a fault in the CU itself?
An LBA fault causes all option modules to become unreachable simultaneously — the CU is operational (the drive can still process basic commands via its terminal strip) but cannot communicate with any local-bus-connected option board. A CU fault typically prevents the drive from operating at all. If the drive runs from terminal strip commands but reports all option boards as absent, the LBA is the primary suspect before condemning the CU.
Q2: Does the 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 LBA need any configuration after replacement?
No. The LBA is a hardware adapter with no configurable parameters or stored data. After fitting the replacement, the CU automatically re-establishes communication with all option boards through the restored local bus without requiring any parameter entry. Verify all previously installed option boards are correctly recognised after the replacement before returning the drive to service.
Q3: Can a single 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 be used across all MASTERDRIVES compact and chassis unit sizes?
The 0XX84 universal format confirms cross-range compatibility across the MASTERDRIVES product line. The LBA's physical mounting and electrical interface are standardised, so one 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0 serves the electronic box local bus adaptation function across the full MASTERDRIVES range — from the smallest compact units to the large chassis drives.
Q4: What ESD and safety precautions apply when replacing 6SE7090-0XX84-4HA0?
Isolate and lock out the drive mains supply and verify DC bus voltage is below 50V before accessing the electronic box. Despite the LBA's low-voltage signal function, it is located within the drive electronics compartment which may be adjacent to sections at higher potential. Handle the 0.1 kg adapter with anti-static precautions — the PCB contains precision signal processing circuitry sensitive to electrostatic discharge.
