Configuring the KFC15/KFCD15 Module

Publication 17706.5.20 - June 1997

Important:

If the KFC15/KFCD15 module displays symbols other
than those shown in this chapter, it is malfunctioning.
Contact your A-B representative to arrange to return the
unit for servicing.

Displays

The following drawing shows the displays on the configuration panel
on the bottom of the KFC15/KFCD15 module. The left display (one
digit) shows the number of the parameter being configured. The two
right displays (two digits) show the current setting for that parameter.
Communication parameters are configured in two menus, a main
menu for basic parameters, and a sub-menu for more advanced
parameters for the RS-232C serial port.
