6. 38. 2 Using RS485 communication
■ Operation by RS485 communication
To run/stop the inverter by RS485 communication, select "3: RS485 communication (connector 1)"
or "4: RS485 communication (connector 2)" with <CMOd: Run command select>.
To issue frequency commands by RS485 communication, select "21: RS485 communication
(connector 1)" or "22: RS485 communication (connector 2)" with <FMOd: Frequency command
select 1>.
Run commands and frequency commands by communication have priority over those from the
operation panel and terminals. Therefore, run commands and frequency commands from
communication can be enabled regardless of the settings of <CMOd> and <FMOd>.
However, when "48" (Communication priority cancel) of input terminal function selection is assigned
to the input terminal and a signal is input externally, perform panel run with the setting of <CMOd>
and <FMOd>.
When "2: Hand/Auto switching " is selected with <F750: EASY key function>, you can switch the
operation panel run and communication run with the [HAND/AUTO] key of the operation panel.
