Environment:
All

Wants to know if he needs to bring in an external power supply to power up the ATV61 drive with an VW3A3316 ethernet card.

Resolution:
No, you will not need to bring any external control power supply into the drive to power up the optional ethernet card. The ethernet card gets is power from the drive when its powered up.
In some cases you can bring in an external +24vdc power supply into the Drives P24 and 0v input and that will keep the Main control board and ethernet card powered on as back up power supply.
