PC Software - MCT 10
All Frequency converters are equipped with a serial communication port. Danfoss provides a PC tool for communication between PC and frequency
converter, VLT Motion Control Tool MCT 10 Set-up Software.
MCT 10 Set-up Software
MCT 10 has been designed as an easy to use interactive tool for setting parameters in our frequency converters. The software can be downloaded from
the Danfoss internet site http://www.vlt-software.com.
The MCT 10 Set-up Software will be useful for:
• Planning a communication network off-line. MCT 10 contains a
complete frequency converter database
• Commissioning frequency converters on line
• Saving settings for all frequency converters
MCT 10 Set-up Software supports Profibus DP-V1 via a Master class 2 connection. It makes it possible to on line read/write parameters on-line in a
frequency converter via the Profibus network. This will eliminate the need for an extra communication network.
