FR-A700: USB automatic recognition
Normally, operation panel (PU connector) is the command
source. During USB connection, USB is the command
source.
FR-E700: USB automatic recognition
Normally, operation panel is the command source. When the
parameter unit is connected to the PU connector, PU is the
command source. During USB connection, USB is the
command source.
Note
• Always reset the inverter after making the setting of parameters. After you have changed the communication-related
parameters, communication cannot be established until the inverter reset.
