To better understand your UNIDRIVE SP Model, look at the part number. The guide below breaks down SP range numbers for you and explains each section individually.
Assigning a 140 NOE Module Ethernet Address Parameter
If you have just received the Schneider 140 NOE 771 xx module but have not yet programmed it with an Ethernet configurable extension, you will need to assign an IP address to your module. In this guide you’ll receive information about assigning a 140 NOE Module Ethernet Address Parameter.
Using the BOOTP Lite software utility you can assign IP address parameters. One thing to note, however, is that with the modules 140 NOE 771 01, -11, and NWM 100 00 you can assign the IP address using web pages.

Upgrading From FANUC C Series Servo Amplifier to α Series
If you experience a system failure due to a Fanuc C series servo amplifier, (A06B-6066-H002, H003 etc.) you may feel like your only option is to replace it with the same exact unit. However Fanuc also offers the α series servo amplifiers which features improvements over the C series. In most cases you can replace your C series servo amplifier with the α series servo amplifier that has the identical final four numbers of the C series model number. The chart below outlines this:
The advantages of replacing your C series amplifier with an α series amplifier are:
- A built in power supply
- A second interface, type B, as well as the more conventional type A interface
- Updated power device, intelligent power module, to reduce power loss and increasing reliability
α series amplifiers are also designed with the same dimensions as the C series so that you can install them into your current system easier.
Go to our website to check out our selection of C series and α series FANUC amplifiers.

Fanuc A06B-6050-H103 Servo Jumper Settings
When replacing a Fanuc A06B-6050-H103 Servo unit you should check to make sure the replacement servo has the same top board, part number A20B-1000-0560. After this part number there will be a “/” and then something similar to “05A” which denotes the revision of the board. Ideally you would match your original unit with a replacement unit that has the same board, but if that’s not possible then all you would need to do is reconfigure the jumpers on the board. The table below shows how to get this set up so you can get your servo back up and running right away. Search for more FANUC motors/drives on our website.
