▼
Mandatory
Notes on operation
NOTES
▼ Install the unit avoiding a place where ambient temperature or/and
humidity change sharply.
▼ Arrange the transmission cable apart from the power cable of the
inverter to prevent the inverter from malfunctioning to be caused by
electromagnetic noise.
▼ Install the unit on the panel of a cabinet if it is used as a remote keypad.
The unit not installed on the panel of a cabinet could cause the unit
falling, resulting in damage and malfunction of the unit.
▼ Install a magnetic contactor etc. to the power supply of the inverter, so
that an emergency stop can be executed securely from outside.
▼ The integrity of data storage is guaranteed for up to 10 years.
▼ The operating life of EEPROM (data storage device) is 10000
operations.
Do not execute writing operations more than 10000 times.
▼
Do not turn off power or remove the connection cable between the
inverter and the parameter writer while a copying operation of parameter
writer is executed. If the inverter power is turned off or the connection
cable is removed while parameters are being copied, data cannot be
written correctly.
P7,8
▼
▼
Do not copy data from the parameter writer to inverter while the inverter
is running. Some of the parameters cannot be written when the inverter
is in operation.
Make sure to execute “comp” (compare) function to check copied data
when “copy” (copy) function is executed. Depending on
circumstances, data writing of copying operation may not have been
successful.
P7,8
P7-9
▼ When a copying operation is executed between two inverters with
different capacities, some of the parameters that vary with the capacity
of inverters will also be copied. Therefore, when you have executed a
copying operation between the inverters with different capacities, we
suggest you initialize the copied parameters of the inverter in
accordance with the level of inverter’s capacity. See the inverter
instruction manual on how to initialize parameters.

4. Functions in detail
4.1. Copying function “copy”
Data stored in a memory can be copied to another memory which memories are selected from among
four memories that are the inverter's memory, memories A, B and C of the parameter writer.
Note: To copy data to the inverter’s memory, do it when the inverter is stopped. If you copy data to the
inverter while the inverter is running, some of the parameters fail to be copied. Furthermore, make
sure to check the copied data by executing data comparison (comp) between the source and the
destination memories after the copying operation.

4.2. Simply copying function
Data stored in the memory A, B or C of the parameter writer can be copied to the inverter's memory with
simple operation of two keys to select one of the memories A, B and C. Use this function to set the
same parameters to more than two inverters. What differs from the “Copying function” in Section 4.1 is
the key operation and the contents of parameters to be copied are the same for both functions.
It is impossible to copy data from the inverter's memory to a memory of the parameter writer in this
mode.
Note: To copy data to the inverter’s memory, do it when the inverter is stopped. If you copy data to the
inverter while the inverter is running, some of the parameters fail to be copied. Furthermore, make sure
to check the copied data by executing data comparison (comp) between the source and the
destination memories after the copying operation.

Each time the SFT key is pressed, indication on the display changes from
“a”(selecting memory A) to “b”(selecting memory B), “c”(selecting memory
C),”sys”(selecting all memories: status of factory setting (including “prot”))
in this order.

-Entering the memory to initialize-
After selecting “a” (selecting memory A, by way of example) with the SFT key,
press the ENT key and “off” appears on the display.

Each time the SFT key is pressed, indication on the display alternately changes
between “on”(to initialize selected memory) and "0ff" (not to initialize the
selected memory).

After selecting "on" (selecting inverter's memory for example) with the SFT key,
press the ENT key and the parameter writer starts initializing the selected memory
with indication of "init" appearing on the display.
When initialization of the selected memory is complete, indication of the display
returns to "copy”.

4.6. Function to serve as remote keypad
(for VF-S7/S7e series inverter whose CPU version is V104 or after)
The parameter writer can be used as an operation panel (remote keypad) of a VF-S7/S7e series inverter
whose CPU version is V104 or after by means of the procedure mentioned below. For recovering the
parameter writer's original function from the status to serve as remote keypad, do the same operation as that
for actuating the remote keypad function. When the parameter writer is set to serve as a remote keypad, refer
to the operation manual of the inverter for operations of the remote keypad because operations are the same
as those on the inverter's operation panel.
■ Procedure to switch the parameter writer's mode to function as a remote keypad or to function as
parameter writer.
Following to the procedure of ''3. Connection and start-up", turn on the parameter writer while
pressing the
key.
ENT
■ Checking the setting mode of the parameter writer (for remote keypad function or parameter writer
function)
When the parameter writer is turned on and the PARAMETER WRITER lamp is on, the parameter
writer is set to function as the parameter writer. When the REMOTE KEYPAD lamp is on, the
parameter writer is set to function as the remote keypad.

5. Indications on display
Messages appearing on the display are classified into three, namely, title indications, malfunction
indications and alarm indications.

RAM built in the parameter writer is abnormal.
If the same indication appears after resetting the parameter writer, it needs to repair.
ROM built in the parameter writer is abnormal.

If the same indication appears after resetting the parameter writer, it needs to repair.
E2PROM built in the parameter writer is abnormal.
If the same indication appears after writing (copying) data again, it needs to repair.
CPU of the parameter writer is abnormal.
If the same indication appears after resetting the parameter writer, it needs to repair.
Abnormal communication
When communication is normally operated after the indication, the alarm mode (indication)
is automatically cancelled. If the same indication appears after checking connection of the
inverter's serial communication cable and resetting the parameter writer, the unit needs to repair.
■Alarm indications (warning indications): Indicated by blinking LED
LED indication
prot
Description
The target memory to copy data or to initialize is write protected. You cannot copy data to the
memory or initialize that memory.
deVe
The type of device is different (different in type or capacity of inverter).
If you press the ENT key when you are copying between two inverters of different capacities, the
system executes a copying operation forcefully but the system ends the operation if you press the
ESC key. If you set “sup” (system area parameters) to “off” (protection disabled) with
“prot(memory protection)” function, you cannot write data even if you press the ENT key.
If you have written data forcefully between two inverters with different capacities, we suggest you
execute a parameter initialization for each level of inverter capacity. See the inverter instruction
manual on how to initialize parameters.
erRa
erRb
erRc
When memory A (or B or C) is selected as the source of copying operation or when it is selected
with comparison and protection functions with no data in either case in the memory (including the
case when power was turned off during the previous copying operation), or when a check sum
error occurred, this indication appears.
Write data other than zero to the memory.
f___
clr
Indicates the communication number of the parameter whose setting value is different.
If you press the “STOP key” while an alarm message is displayed, “clr” flickers for one
second. If you press the “STOP key” again when “clr” flickers, the parameter writer will be
reset.
