It will be mounted instead of the operating panel on interface X1. The setup of the address is carried out with RS232, a specific connection cable and SFU-Terminal. The require files including the description of the commands and gsd-files are available on the BMR website.
9 Setup, Parameterization and Configuration with SFU-Terminal The software SFU-Terminal is a tool for the configuration of BMR frequency converters of the series SFU0102….SFU0601. A manual for SFU-Terminal is available on our website Moreover, it offers the possibility to read out system data and to modify them.
A spindle characteristic generated by this procedure will be good and to be used in standard applications, but it will never be as perfect as realized manually. So, to achieve best possible performance in an application, it might require a subsequent fine tuning by hand. …wenn es um Qualität geht! BMR GmbH...

Our common hints can give only a rough guideline because it is not possible for BMR GmbH to cover all specific situations. The compliance with limits of EMC demanded by law is the responsibility of the manufacturer of the unit or the machine.
Warranty claims have to be sent to us in written form. The customer has to pay the costs to send the defective device back to BMR within the time of warranty. If this is not complied with or if we detect an external intrusion into our device, we feel free to withdraw our duty of warranty.
