Modbus Method
The inverter communicates with an external controller as follows.
(1) Frame (Query) that is sent from the external control device to the inverter
(2) After receiving a query frame, the inverter waits for the total time of the Silent Interval and the Com-
munication Wait Time (CF-07), before returning a response.
Silent Interval
The wait time that is specified on Modbus communication; its data length is 3.5 characters
(3.5 bytes).
It depends on the Modbus communication speed setting.
(3) Frame (Response) that is sent from the inverter back to the external controller
(4) After sending a response, the inverter monitors the time until it completes receiving the query frame
from the external control device. The inverter judges it as a communications error if it receives no
response within the Communication Error Timeout Time (CF-06).
Then, the inverter operates according the Operation Selection on Communication Error (CF-05),
while waiting for the reception of the first data again.
The monitoring of the Communication Error Timeout Time starts from the first sending/receiving
operation is established after the power supply is cycled or after the inverter is reset.
The inverter does not recognize as a communications error timeout if the sending/receiving opera-
tion is not established at all.
For setting details, refer to the following information.
