5.4 FRENIC-VG Loader
Inverter support software FRENIC-VG Loader runs on a computer to provide the following.
• Configuring and managing function codes: Reading/writing function code data from/to the
inverter
• Monitoring the running status of the FRENIC-VG:
Operation monitor (I/O monitor and system monitor)
Trace functions (Real-time trace and historical trace)
• Analyzing failures that have happened in the FRENIC-VG:
Operation monitor (Alarm monitor)
Trace functions (Traceback)
Using the above functions of FRENIC-VG Loader enables you to easily start FRENIC-VG, manage
function codes, and analyze failures without setting up a data logger tool.
FRENIC-VG Loader is available in two versions: Free version (WPS-VG1-STR) included in the
CD-ROM that comes with the FRENIC-VG inverter and Optional paid-for version
(WPS-VG1-PCL).
