DCT 10 Set-up Software
DCT 10 has been designed as an easy to use interactive tool for setting parameters in our frequency converters.
The PC-based Configuration Tool DCT 10 will be useful for:
• Planning a communication network off-line. DCT 10 contains a complete frequency converter database
• Commissioning frequency converters on line
• Saving settings for all frequency converters
• Replacing a frequency converter in a network
• Expanding an existing network
• Future developed drives will be supported
The PC-based Configuration Tool DCT 10 supports Profibus DP-V1 via a Master class 2 connection. It makes it possible to on line read/write parameters in a
frequency converter via the Profibus network. This will eliminate the need for an extra communication network. See Operating InstructionsDET-609 and
DET-610 for more information about the features supported by the Profibus DP V1 functions.
