MODES
This section describes the VS-656RC5’s monitor modes, switching between modes,
and accessing/setting user constants.
(1) Modes
The VS-656RC5’s user constants and monitoring functions have been organized
in groups called modes that make it easier to read and set user constants.
The VS-656RC5 is equipped with 4 modes, as shown in the Table A-2.

Modes
Mode
Primary function(s)
Operation mode
The power regenerative unit can be run in this mode.
Use this mode when monitoring values such as frequency references or output
current, displaying fault information, or displaying the fault history.
Initialize mode
Use this mode when selecting the language displayed on the Digital Operator,
selecting the access level for reading/setting user constants, selecting the control
mode, or initializing the user constants.
Factory setting : English (A1-00=0)
Programming mode
Use this mode when reading/setting the user constants required for operation.
The program-mode functions are subdivided into the following groups:
S
Apprication:
Operation mode selection
S
Tuning:
Settings for automatic operation
S
Option:
Settings for Optional Cards
S
Terminal:
Settings for sequential I/O and analog I/O
S
Protection:
Settings for the motor and power regenerative unit protection
function
S
Operator:
Selects the Digital Operator’s display and Key function
Modified constants mode
Use this mode to read/set user constants that have been changed from their factory
set values.
(2) Switching Modes
Once the power regenerative unit has been put into operation mode by pressing
the Menu Key, the Increment and Decrement Keys can be pressed to switch to
other modes. Press the DATA/ENTER Key to read/set the user constants in each
mode.
Press the ESC Key to return to the mode display from the user constant display.
Press the DATA/ENTER Key twice to write a constant and then press the ESC
Key to return to the mode display. This is the most Basic operation, so you
should remember it.
