Details Of Self-Configuration - YASKAWA MP210 Series User Manual

5.4.1 Details of Self-configuration

Self-configuration collects MECHATROLINK transmission definition data and slave data according to the
sequence shown below.
The MP2100 decides the communication type at the point when a slave is detected, and after that point neither
communication type selection nor slave detection is performed. If not even a single slave station has been
detected, MECHATROLINK-I communication is continued.
Note: 1. For each communication, the slave devices are detected in the order SERVOPACKs, then I/O devices then
inverters.
2. At stations where there is a communication error or no response, for example if the station number is dupli-
cated or a cable is broken, the status is recognized as "no connection."
3. For details on setting station data, setting fixed parameters, setting setting parameters and saving SERVO-
PACK parameters, refer to 4.5 System Startup Using Self-configuration and 4.1.9 Executing the MP2100
Self-configuration.
