 Displaying control I/O signal terminals
The status of control I/O signal terminals may be displayed with ON/OFF of the LED segment or in 
hexadecimal display.

 Display I/O signal status with ON/OFF of each LED segment 
As shown in Table 3.17 and the figure below, each of segments "a" to "g" on LED1 lights when the 
corresponding digital input terminal circuit ([FWD], [REV], [X1], [X2], [X3], [X4] or [X5]) is closed; it 
goes off when it is open. Segment "a" and "b" on LED3 light when the circuit between output terminal 
[Y1] or [Y2] and terminal [CMY], and do not light when the circuit is open. Segment "a" on LED4 is for 
terminals [30A/B/C]. Segment "a" on LED4 lights when the circuit between terminals [30C] and [30A] 
is short-circuited (ON) and does not light when it is open. 
If all terminal input signals are OFF (open), segment "g" on all of LED1 to LED4 will light
("– – – –").

 Displaying I/O signal status in hexadecimal format 
Each I/O terminal is assigned to bit 15 through bit 0 as shown in Table 3.18. An unassigned bit is 
interpreted as "0." Allocated bit data is displayed on the LED monitor as four hexadecimal digits (
to
H
  each). 
With the FRENIC-Multi, digital input terminals [FWD] and [REV] are assigned to bit 0 and bit 1, 
respectively. Terminals [X1] through [X5] are assigned to bits 2 through 6. The bit is set to "1" when 
the corresponding input terminal is short-circuited (ON), and is set to "0" when it is open (OFF). For 
example, when [FWD] and [X1] are ON (short-circuited) and all the others are OFF (open), 
 is 
displayed on LED4 to LED1. 
Digital output terminal [Y1] and [Y2] are assigned to bits 0 and 1. Each bit is set to "1" when the 
terminal is short-circuited with [CMY], and "0" when it is open. 
The status of the relay contact output terminal [30A/B/C] is assigned to bit 8. It is set to "1" when the 
circuit between output terminals [30A] and [30C] is closed, and "0" when the circuit between [30A] 
and [30C] is open. 
For example, if [Y1] is ON, [Y2] is OFF, and the circuit between [30A] and [30C] is closed, then 
"
" is displayed on the LED4 to LED1. 
Table 3.18 presents an example of bit assignment and corresponding hexadecimal display on the 
7-segment LED.
