How to Connect a PC to the Frequency Converter
To control or program the frequency converter from a PC, install the PC-based Configuration Tool TDU.
The PC is connected via a standard (host/device) USB cable, or via the RS-485 interface as shown in the TR200
Design Guide, chapter How to Install > Installation of misc. connections
.
The USB connection is galvanically isolated from the supply voltage (PELV) and other high-voltage terminals. The USB
connection is connected to protection earth on the frequency converter. Use only an isolated laptop as PC connection
to the USB connector on the frequency converter.

TDU Set-up Software
TDU has been designed as an easy to use interactive tool for setting parameters in our frequency converters. .
The TDU Set-up software will be useful for:
• Planning a communication network off-line. TDU contains a complete frequency converter database
• Commissioning frequency converters on line
• Saving settings for all frequency converters
• Replacing a frequency converter in a network
• Simple and accurate documentation of frequency converter settings after commissioning.
• Expanding an existing network
• Future developed frequency converters will be supported
