5.15.4 Initial settings and specifications of RS-485
communication
[Parameters related to PU connector communication]
Use the following parameters to perform required settings for the RS-485 communication between the inverter and a
personal computer.
• There are two types of communication, communication using the inverter's PU connector and communication using
the RS-485 terminals.
• Parameter setting, monitoring, etc. can be performed using Mitsubishi inverter protocol and Modbus-RTU
communication protocol.
• To make communication between the personal computer and inverter, setting of the communication specifications
must be made to the inverter in advance.
Data communication cannot be made if the initial settings are not made or if there is any setting error.

Specify the inverter station number.
Set the inverter station numbers when two or more inverters are
connected to one personal computer.

Set the communication speed.
The setting value  100 equals the communication speed.
For example, if 192 is set, the communication speed is 19200
bps.

Number of PU
communication retries
1
0 to 10
Set the permissible number of retries for unsuccessful data
reception. If the number of consecutive errors exceeds the
permissible value, the inverter will trip.
9999 If a communication error occurs, the inverter will not trip.

0 No PU connector communication
0.1 to 999.8 s
Set the interval of the communication check (signal loss
detection) time.
If a no-communication state persists for longer than the
permissible time, the inverter will trip.
9999 No communication check (signal loss detection)

0 to 150 ms
Set the waiting time between data transmission to the inverter
and the response.
9999 Set with communication data.
