Mitsubishi Inverter Protocol (Computer Link Communication) - Mitsubishi Electric FR-D700 Instruction Manual

4.19.5 Mitsubishi inverter protocol (computer link communication)

You can perform parameter setting, monitor, etc. from the PU connector of the inverter using the Mitsubishi inverter
protocol (computer link communication).

∗1
If a data error is detected and a retry must be made, execute retry operation with the user program. The inverter comes to trip if the number of consecutive
retries exceeds the parameter setting.
∗2
On receipt of a data error occurrence, the inverter returns retry data 3) to the computer again. The inverter comes to trip if the number of consecutive data
errors reaches or exceeds the parameter setting.
Mitsubishi protocol (computer link)
1:N (maximum 32 units), setting is 0 to 31 stations
Selected from among 4800/9600/19200 and 38400bps

Data communication between the computer and
inverter is made in the following procedure.
1) Request data is sent from the computer to
the inverter. (The inverter will not send data
Time
unless requested.)
2) After waiting for the waiting time
3) The inverter sends return data to the
computer in response to the computer
request.
4) After waiting for the inverter data processing
time
5) Answer from the computer in response to
reply data 3) of the inverter is transmitted.
(Even if 5) is not sent, subsequent
communication is made properly.)
