HARDWARE SETUP

Setting the Drive Controller Address

An ALTIVAR 58 drive controller is identified on the MODBUS PLUS

network by its unique address, which can range from 1 to 64.Select the

address by setting DIP switches on the option card. Refer to Figure 4 on

page 13 for details and examples.

Switches 1–6 collectively make up a binary number, and the address is

determined by adding 1 to that binary number. In other words, each

switch corresponds to a value as shown in Figure 4. The address is

determined by adding the values corresponding to each switch set to 1

(on) and then adding 1.

NOTE: The drive controller updates an address from the switch setting on

power-up.
