An overview of all compatible devices is given below.
(1) Keypad (standard/multi-function)
The standard keypad or multi-function keypad can be connected to operate and monitor the inverter.
The standard keypad can be used regardless of the y code setting.
(2) FRENIC Loader
Inverter supporting (monitor, function code editing, test operation) can be performed by connecting a computer
with the FRENIC loader installed.
The FRENIC-MEGA keypad is equipped with a USB port. If connecting with FRENIC Loader via the USB
port, use is possible simply by setting the station address (y01) to “1” (factory default).
(3) Host equipment
Host equipments such as PLC and controller can be connected to control and monitor the inverter. Modbus
RTU* protocol or Fuji general-purpose inverter protocol can be selected for communication.
* Modbus RTU is a protocol stipulated by Modicon.
Refer to the "RS-485 Communication User's Manual" for details.
Station addresses (y01, y11)
