address on the network, using address switches on the I-PONI or B-PONI
as shown in Figure 10.1. Also, all devices must be communicating at the
same baud rate, which will usually be 9600 unless some old devices are
on the network.
For DeviceNet and Ethernet connections, refer to the instructions for
those PONIs.
PowerNet software is supplied with its own comprehensive instructions,
which explain how to access MP-3000 data and control capabilities at the
host client computer.
10.6Emulating the IQ 1000 II with IMPACC host
systems, B-PONI, and some D-PONIs
IMPACC host systems, B-PONI, and some translating D-PONIs
predate the MP-3000, and cannot directly communicate with it.
However, the MP-3000 has a communications mode in which it
emulates the older IQ 1000 II relay, with which IMPACC, the B-PONI, and
some D-PONIs can communicate.
To emulate IQ 1000 II communications, setting P12L15 should be set to
IQ2 EN. If this mode is selected, the communications functionality of
the MP-3000 will be restricted to that of the IQ 1000 II. The full applica-
tion functionality of the MP-3000 is still available via the front panel even
when set to IQ2 EN - only data communications are restricted. However,
there is an important catch.
Table 10.1 lists the 50 (out of 154) MP-3000 settings, which correspond
to 27 settings of the IQ 1000 II, for which the MP-3000 offers wider
ranges or new options. If any of these settings are set to values which
were not available in the IQ 1000 II (right column of table), then the MP-
3000 cannot report settings to the host, and communications will not
function.
The IQ 1000 II Range column gives the allowed setting ranges for
these, so that the relay can talk to IMPACC in the IQ2 EN mode. The
MP-3000 is shipped from the factory with default settings which
support these IQ2 EN communications. But the default settings must
be tailored to the motor—check the allowed ranges below. So, the
application abilities of the MP-3000 may be slightly abridged if it must
communicate with an older host.
