USB device communication
A USB (Ver. 1.1) cable connects the inverter with a personal computer.
Parameter setting and monitoring can be performed by FR Configurator 2.
NOTE
• For the details of FR Configurator2, refer to the Instruction Manual of FR Configurator2.
2.7.3 RS-485 terminal block
Communication operation
The RS-485 terminals enables communication operation from a personal computer, etc. When the PU connector is connected
with a personal, FA or other computer by a communication cable, a user program can run to monitor the inverter or read and
write parameters.
Communication can be performed with the Mitsubishi inverter protocol (computer link operation) and Modbus-RTU protocol.
(For details, refer to the FR-A800 Instruction Manual (Detailed).)
NOTE
• To avoid malfunction, keep the RS-485 terminal wires away from the control circuit board.
• For wiring of the RS-485 terminals used with a plug-in option, lead the wires on the left side of the plug-in option.
