4.1). The third column contains the function code descriptions, which are used by the filter function. The
last column performs two functions: it displays the current value of the function code, and (for writable
function codes) also allows changing the function code’s value by clicking on the number in the value
column and entering the new value.
Figure 19: Function Code List
Some items to keep in mind when interacting with the Function Code List are:
•
When entering new function code values, be sure that the number being entered is appropriate for
the currently-selected radix (refer to section 6.2.5).
•
The column widths can be changed by dragging the vertical bars that separate the header row’s
cells.
•
If you begin changing a function code value and then decide to abandon the change, pressing the
ESC key on your keyboard will abandon the change and redisplay the current function code value.
•
When editing a function code value, clicking someplace off the entry cell is equivalent to hitting the
ENTER key.
6.2.4 Function Code List Filter
A filter function provides Function Code List search
capabilities. To use the filter function, simply type a
word or portion of a word into the filter entry box and
then click the “filter” button. Refer to Figure 20. The
filter will then display only those function codes
currently available in the Function Code List that
satisfy the search criteria. Once a filter has been entered, it will continue to be applied to all information
normally displayed in the Function Code List. To remove the filter, delete any characters contained in
the filter entry box and then click the “filter” button.
6.2.5 Radix Selection
Figure 21 shows the radix selection buttons. These selection buttons
allow changing the Function Code List “value” column data display
and entry radix between decimal and hexadecimal formats.
When “DEC” is selected, the “value” column heading will be “
Value
(Decimal)
”, current function code values will be displayed in decimal,
and values to be written to function codes must be entered in decimal format. For example, to change
the inverter’s frequency command to 40.00Hz, enter the decimal value 4000.
Similarly, when “HEX” is selected, the “value” column heading will be “
Value (Hexadecimal)
”, current
function code values will be displayed in hexadecimal, and values to be written to function codes must
be entered in hexadecimal format. For example, to turn on bit #10 in the inverter’s operation command
word, enter the hexadecimal number 0400.
