II. PARAMETERS TO CONFIGURE FOR THE INVERTER

1. Setting the IP Address

 There are two methods for configuring the embedded EtherNet/IP adapter’s IP
address:
1. BOOTP Server – Use BOOTP if you prefer to control the IP addresses of devices
using a BOOTP server. The IP address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses will then
be provided by the BOOTP server. This is enabled by default.
2. Parameters – Use parameters when you want more flexibility in setting up the IP
address, or need to communicate outside the control network using a gateway. The IP
address, subnet mask, and gateway addresses will then come from the parameters you
set.

VAVN Son Le VON ARDENNE VIETNAM

II. PARAMETERS TO CONFIGURE FOR THE INVERTER

 Check and set IP for inverter

VAVN Son Le VON ARDENNE VIETNAM

II. PARAMETERS TO CONFIGURE FOR THE INVERTER
 Verify that parameter C128 [EN EN Addr Sel] is set to 1“Parameters”. This parameter must be set to
“Parameters” to configure the subnet mask using parameters.

Automatic calibration before use:

- Static calibration: the load will not work. The inverter will detect system parameters for better load control.
- Parameter setting P40 =1
-Enable drive start command
- Wait until calibration is complete and parameter P40 returns to 0

II.PREPARATION BEFORE STARTING THE INVERTER

3.List of test tasks when starting the drive:

a. Disconnect and lock the power to the machine.

b. Check that the power supply is suitable for the inverter
c. If changing 1 inverter, check the code with the current inverter. Double-check all settings on the inverter.
d. Grounding test
e. Check the I/O connections again.
f. Check and make sure all input/output connections are properly connected to the device
g. Record motor information, feedback device. Check the connections to the motor
H. Check the input voltage to the inverter.
i. Configure the basic parameters related to the motor.
j. Complete automatic calibration procedures (autotune) for the inverter
k. The settings that have been backed up can be restored via the USB port when a new inverter is replaced,
or the drive can be configured via push buttons on the control module
