Energize Filter
Open PQvision desktop interface
Go to Settings
Select Load Defaults
Select Apply
Default Modbus settings should be applied. Try
connecting to the COM port
▪
If this doesn't work de-energize power to the filter
and try flipping the A and B signal wires leading to the J5 header of the circuit board.
To perform a hard reset of Modbus settings the user will need to remove jumper J20 with
the power de-energized from the filter. Once the jumper is removed connect the RS485
converter to J5 header and energize filter.
Open PQvision
Confirm there is a COM port under Communication and try to connect
▪
Note if connecting to the COM port does not work, try flipping the A and B signal
wires leading to the J5 header of the circuit board
