DANGER
Do not ignore the safety messages in this manual. If you ignore the safety messages in this manual, it will
cause serious injury or death. The manufacturer is not responsible for injuries or damage to equipment.
WARNING
Electrical Shock Hazard. Do not modify the drive or option circuitry. Failure to obey can cause serious injury or
death, or cause damage to the drive or option and will void warranty. Yaskawa is not responsible for modifications of the product

Overview
This option provides a communications connection between the drive and a Modbus TCP/IP network. The option
connects the drive to a Modbus TCP/IP network and facilitates the exchange of data.
Modbus TCP/IP is a communications link to connect industrial devices (such as smart motor controllers, operator
interfaces, and variable frequency drives) as well as control devices (such as programmable controllers and
computers) to a network. Modbus TCP/IP is a simple, networking solution. Modbus TCP/IP decreases the cost
and time to wire and install factory automation devices, and it gives the option to interchange like components
from other vendors.
Modbus TCP/IP is an open network standard.
Install the option on a drive to perform the following functions from a Modbus TCP/IP master device:
•
Operate the drive
•
Monitor the drive operation status
•
Change drive parameter settings
