13.2.5 ModBus Communication Example
One slave address is 01H. The frequency setting of the frequency converter has been
set to "Given via communication" and the RUN command source is set to "Inputting
commands via communication". It is required for the motor connected to the frequency
converter to run with 50Hz (forward rotation). The operation can be achieved with func‐
tion 0x10 (function 16) of the ModBus protocol. The messages of the requests from the
master and responses from the slave are shown in table below:
● Example 1: Start 01# frequency converter for forward rotation at frequency of 50.00

13.2.6 Special Notes
1. The external computer can not write to function codes [b0.06] "Parameter replica‐
tion", [b0.30] "running monitoring display" and [b0.31] "Stop monitoring display".
2. [b0.00] "User password" and [b0.05] "Parameter initialization" do not support mul‐
tiple write including single write in multiple write; Motor nameplate parameters
and motor physical data should not be modified simultaneously; Multi-function
digital input terminals ([E0.01] ~ [E0.05]) writing operation do not permit repeated
nonzero value.
