5.3.1 How to Connect a PC to the
Frequency Converter
To control or program the frequency converter from a PC,
install the PC-based configuration tool MCT 10 Set-up
Software.
The PC is connected via a standard (host/device) USB
cable, or via the RS-485 interface as shown in
chapter 5.2.1 RS-485 Bus Connection.
NOTICE
The USB connection is galvanically isolated from the
supply voltage (PELV) and other high-voltage terminals.
The USB connection is connected to protection earth.
Use only an isolated laptop as PC connection to the USB
connector on the frequency converter.

PC-based MCT 10 Set-up Software
All Frequency converters are equipped with a serial
communication port. Danfoss provides a PC tool for
communication between PC and frequency converter, PC-
based Configuration Tool MCT 10. Check the section on
Available Literature for detailed information on this tool.
MCT 10 set-up software
MCT 10 has been designed as an easy to use interactive
tool for setting parameters in our frequency converters.
The MCT 10 Set-up Software is useful for:
•
Planning a communication network off-line. MCT
10 Set-up Software contains a complete
frequency converter database.
•
Commissioning frequency converters on line.
•
Saving settings for all frequency converters.
•
Replacing a frequency converter in a network.
•
Simple and accurate documentation of frequency
converter settings after commissioning.
•
Expanding an existing network.
•
Future developed frequency converters are
supported.
MCT 10 Set-up Software 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 eliminates the need for an extra
communication network.
Save frequency converter settings:
1. Connect a PC to the unit via USB com port.
(NOTE: Use a PC, which is isolated from the
mains, in conjunction with the USB port. Failure
to do so may damage equipment.).
2. Open MCT 10 Set-up Software.
3.
Select Read from drive.
4.
Select Save as.
All parameters are now stored in the PC.
Load frequency converter settings:
1. Connect a PC to the frequency converter via USB
com port.
2. Open MCT 10 Set-up Software.
3.
Select Open – stored files are shown.
4. Open the appropriate file.
5.
Select Write to drive.
All parameter settings are now transferred to the
frequency converter.
