1 PRE-OPERATION INSTRUCTIONS
1.1 Product Overview
The OPC-PRT Multiprotocol Ethernet interface allows information to be transferred seamlessly between
a FRENIC-Ace inverter and several Ethernet-based fieldbus networks with minimal configuration
requirements. The interfac e installs directly onto the inverter, and presents two RJ-45 jacks with an
embedded 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet switch for connection to the Ethernet network. In addition
to the supported fieldbus protocols, the interfac e also hosts a fully-customizable embedded web server,
which provides access to inverter information via a standard web browser for remote monitoring and
control.
Before using the interface, please familiarize yourself with the product and be sure to thoroughly read
the instructions and precautions contained in this manual. In addition, please make sure that this
instruction manual is delivered to the end user of the interface, and keep this instruction manual in a safe
place for future reference or unit inspection.
Note that different interfac e firmware versions may provide varying levels of support for the various
protoc ols. W hen using this manual, therefore, always keep in mind the release date of the firmware
version running on your interface as it must correspond to this manual’s respective release date in order
for all documented aspects to apply.
Supported Protocols
The interfac e currently provides server support for the following fieldbus protocols:
• Modbus/TCP Server
• EtherNet/IP Server (DLR node)
• Allen Bradley CSP Server (also known as “PCCC” and “AB Ethernet”)
• BACnet/IP Server
• PROFINET IO Device (MRP client)
