Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Safety precautions 1 Safety precautions Please read this manual carefully and follow all safety precautions before moving, installing, operating and servicing the variable-frequency drive (VFD). If ignored, physical injury or death may occur, or damage may occur to the devices. If any physical injury or death or damage to the devices occurs for ignoring to the safety precautions in the manual, our company will not be responsible for any damages and we are not legally bound in any manner.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Safety precautions 1.3 Safety guidelines Only qualified electricians are allowed to operate on the VFD. Do not carry out any wiring and inspection or changing components when the power supply is applied. Ensure all input power supply is disconnected before wiring and checking and always wait for at least the time designated on the VFD or until the DC bus voltage is less than 36V.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Safety precautions R, S and T are the input terminals of the power supply, while U, V and W are the motor terminals. Please connect the input power cables and motor cables with proper techniques; otherwise, the damage to the VFD may occur. 1.3.2 Commissioning and operation ...
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Safety precautions 1.3.4 What to do after scrapping The heavy metals inside the VFD should be treated as industrial effluent. When the life cycle ends, the product should enter the recycling system. Dispose of it separately at an appropriate collection point but not place it in the normal waste stream.
Kruger offices. 4. Check whether the name plate of the VFD is consistent with the model identifier on the exterior surface of the packing box. If no, contact local dealers or Kruger offices. 5. Check whether the accessories (including user's manual and control keypad) inside the packing box are complete.
3. Check whether the altitude of the VFD in actual use exceeds 1000m. If it exceeds 1000m, derate 1% for every increase of 100m. When the altitude exceeds 3000m, consult the local Kruger dealer or office for details. 4. Check whether the humidity of the actual usage site exceeds 90% and condensation occurs.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Product overview 2.1.5 Basic commissioning Complete the basic commissioning as follows before the actual use of the VFD: 1. Autotuning. If possible, de-coupled from the motor load to start dynamic autotuning. Or if not, static autotuning is available. 2.

Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol 7 Communication protocol 7.1 Brief instruction to Modbus protocol Modbus protocol is a software protocol and common language which is applied in the electronic controller. With this protocol, the controller (device) can communicate with other devices via network (the channel of signal transmission or the physical layer, such as RS485).
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol 7.2 Application of the VFD The VFD uses the Modbus RTU mode and the physical layer is 2-wire RS485. 7.2.1 2-wire RS485 2-wire RS485 interfaces works in half-duplex mode and send data signals in the differential transmission way, which is also referred to as balanced transmission.
Page 133
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol USB-RS485 converter is used, use a short cable when possible. When the wiring is completed, select the correct port (for example, COM1 to connect to the RS232-RS485 converter) for the upper computer of the PC, and keep the settings of basic parameters such as communication baud rate and data check bit consistent with those of the VFD.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol Main control device 32 # 15 # Figure 7-3 Star connection Use shielded cables, if possible, in multi-VFD connection. The baud rates, data bit check settings, and other basic parameters of all the devices on the RS485 line must be set consistently, and addresses cannot be repeated.
Page 135
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol In a character frame, only the data bits carry information. The start bit, check bit, and stop bit are used to facilitate the transmission of the data bits to the destination device. In practical applications, you must set the data bits, parity check bits, and stop bits consistently.
Page 136
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol 7.2.2.2 RTU communication frame error check modes During the transmission of data, errors may occur due to various factors (such as electromagnetic interference). For example, if the sending message is a logic "1", A-B potential difference on RS485 should be 6V, but in reality, it may be -6V because of electromagnetic interference, and then the other devices take the sent message as logic "0".
Page 137
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol added to the frame. The receiver calculates the CRC of the received frame, and compares the result with the value in the received CRC domain. If the two CRC values are not equal to each other, errors occur in the transmission. During CRC, 0xFFFF is stored first, and then a process is invoked to process a minimum of 6 contiguous bytes in the frame based on the content in the current register.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol In the ladder logic, CKSM uses the table look-up method to calculate the CRC value according to the content in the frame. The program of this method is simple, and the calculation is fast, but the ROM space occupied is large. Use this program with caution in scenarios where there are space occupation requirements on programs.
Ecowatt ® Drive K120 series Communication protocol "START" and "END" are "T1-T2-T3-T4 (time gap with a min. length of 3.5 bytes)", indicating that a time gap with a mini. length of 3.5 bytes must be kept before RS485 communication is executed. The time gap is used to distinguish one message from another so that the two messages are not regarded as one message.

To ensure the rated power of the motor, the rated output current of the VFD must be greater or equal to the rated current of the motor.
When the altitude of the site where the VFD is installed is lower than 1000 m, the VFD can run at the rated power. When the altitude exceeds 1000m, derate by 1% for every increase of 100m. When the altitude exceeds 3000m, consult the local Kruger dealer or local Kruger office for details.
