Set-up and Operation
Master RJ45 Slave RJ45
STO signal must be provided in order to permit running the motor. Run enable is provided by the Digital Input with the Start/Stop
command coming from the master drive. Speed reference also comes from the master drive. The slave drive must be connected to the
master drive by a straight through (no crossover) RJ45 patch lead.
4.2.2. RS-485 Communications Electrical Connections
The Optidrive Coolvert has two separate points where you can access the Modbus RTU communications. The Modbus RTU
connection can be made via the RJ45 connector or control terminals 1, 2 & 3. As shown below:

NOTES
• Use 3 or 4 Conductor Twisted Pair Cable
•RS485+ and RS485- must be twisted pair
• Ensure the network taps for the drive
are kept as short as possible
• Network terminating resistor (120R) may
be used at the end of the network to
reduce noise
