D700 VSD Drive Operation status signals

D700 VSD Drive Operation status signals

Objective:
Provide Important feedback from the drive to the PLC via digital discrete signals as feedback.
The drive applicable is the FR-D700.

Note:
While it is recommended that bus communication feedback, such as inverter comms or Modbus RTU serial is used, in some cases signal feedback is the preferred option.

Method:
First, take note that 3 digital discrete status feedback options are available on this drive. They are:

(two transistor open collector and one relay contact)

They can be parameterized to reflect different states, like for instance, errors or faults. The following are feedback options:


Their location for wiring purposes can be found here:

In terms of specifications, the following applies:
