Quantum MP User Guide 63

5.13 Serial communications
5.13.1 Introduction
The Quantum MP has a standard 2-wire EIA485 interface (serial
communications interface) which enables all drive set-up, operation and
monitoring to be carried out with a PC or controller if required. Therefore,
it is possible to control the drive entirely by serial communications
without the need for a keypad or other control cabling. The drive
supports two protocols selected by parameter configuration:
• Modbus RTU
• CT ANSI
Modbus RTU has been set as the default protocol, as it is used with the
PC-tools commissioning/start-up software as provided on the CD ROM.
The serial communications port of the drive is a RJ45 socket, which is
isolated from the power stage and the other control terminals (see
section 4.13 Serial communications connections on page 45 for
connection and isolation details).
The communications port applies a 2 unit load to the communications
network.
USB/EIA232 to EIA485 Communications
An external USB/EIA232 hardware interface such as a PC cannot be
used directly with the 2-wire EIA485 interface of the drive. Therefore a
suitable converter is required.
Suitable USB to EIA485 and EIA232 to EIA485 isolated converters are
available from Control Techniques as follows:
• CT USB Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0096)
• CT EIA232 Comms cable (CT Part No. 4500-0087)
When using one of the above converters or any other suitable converter
with the Quantum MP, it is recommended that no terminating resistors
be connected on the network. It may be necessary to 'link out' the
terminating resistor within the converter depending on which type is
used. The information on how to link out the terminating resistor will
normally be contained in the user information supplied with the
converter.
5.13.2 Serial communications set-up parameters
The following parameters need to be set according to the system
requirements.
This parameter defines the communications protocol used by the 485
comms port on the drive. This parameter can be changed via the drive
keypad, via a Solutions Module or via the comms interface itself. If it is
changed via the comms interface, the response to the command uses
the original protocol. The master should wait at least 20 ms before
sending a new message using the new protocol. (Note: ANSI uses 7
data bits, 1 stop bit and even parity; Modbus RTU uses 8 data bits, 2
stops bits and no parity.)
ANSIx3.28 protocol
Full details of the CT ANSI communications protocol are in the
Advanced User Guide.
Modbus RTU protocol
Full details of the CT implementation of Modbus RTU are given in the
Advanced User Guide.
Modbus RTU protocol, but with an SM-Keypad Plus only
This setting is used for disabling communications access when the SM-
Keypad Plus is used as a hardware key.
Used in all comms modes to define the baud rate.
* only applicable to Modbus RTU mode
This parameter can be changed via the drive keypad, via a Solutions
Module or via the comms interface itself. If it is changed via the comms
interface, the response to the command uses the original baud rate. The
master should wait at least 20 ms before sending a new message using
the new baud rate.
When using the CT EIA232 Comms cable the available baud rate is
limited to 19.2k baud.
Used to define the unique address for the drive for the serial interface.
The drive is always a slave.
ANSI
When the ANSI protocol is used the first digit is the group and the
second digit is the address within a group. The maximum permitted
group number is 9 and the maximum permitted address within a group is
9. Therefore, Pr 11.23 (Si02, 0.67) is limited to 99 in this mode. The
value 00 is used to globally address all slaves on the system, and x0 is
used to address all slaves of group x, therefore these addresses should
not be set in this parameter.
Modbus RTU
When the Modbus RTU protocol is used addresses between 0 and 247
are permitted. Address 0 is used to globally address all slaves, and so
this address should not be set in this parameter
