Writing to a drive
You can connect to the drive and either read to or write from a project file. After the
project drive parameters have been set, follow the instructions listed below.
The connected drive will now have the same parameter settings as the project drive. You
can also use MCT-10 to program a drive directly through the USB cable, without creating
a project drive. To do this, connect your USB cable from the laptop to the VFD and wait
until the software detects it. You will see "USB' appear under the network column. Click
the + and you will see the connected drive which can now be programmed on the fly.
Reading from a drive
Drives that were previously programmed and operating in the field can be backed up to a
MCT-10 project file. To back up a working drives parameter settings to project file,
follow the instructions listed below.
The project drive will now have the same parameter settings as the actual drive. You can
save the project to your laptop and the settings will now be securely stored.
