Quick start-up with DriveStudio v1.6
In DriveStudio v1.6, parameter group 55 COMMUNICATION TOOL
is used for configuring the network. DriveStudio can be used for
setting the parameters of one drive at a time and for monitoring the
signals of several drives simultaneously.
With parameter 55.01 MDB STATION ID, the node number is set in
the range of 1...247. With parameter 55.02 MDB BAUD RATE, the
communication speed is defined. With the default setting, (0) Auto,
the initial speed at power-up or after communication loss is
9600 bit/s. Note: Parameter 55.02 must be set to (0) Auto when
using a control panel.
1. Ensure that your PC is connected to one of the drives at a time
when configuring the RS-485 network. There are three ways to
do the connection:
•
Point-to-point connection from the PC directly to one of the
JCUs
•
Each JPC-01 connected to its JCU but only one JCU
powered (network connection)
•
Only one JPC-01 in the RS-485 chain connected to a JCU
(remaining JPC-01s detached from the JCU).
2. Set parameter 55.01 MDB STATION ID to a value between 1
and 31.
