CAUTION
Communication line error [E.OP1 (fault data: HA1)] is an error that occurs on the communication line. Communication option error [E. 1 (fault data: HF1)] is an error that occurs in the communication circuit inside the option. Fault output indicates the fault output signal (ALM signal) and fault bit output. When the fault output setting is active, fault records are stored in the faults history. When the fault output setting is not active, fault record is overwritten to the faults history temporarily but not stored. After the error is removed, the fault indication is reset, changing the display back to normal, and the last fault is displayed in the faults history. When the Pr. 502 setting is "1" or "2", the deceleration time is the normal deceleration time setting (e.g. Pr. 8, Pr. 44, Pr. 45). The acceleration time at a restart is the normal acceleration time setting (e.g. Pr. 7, Pr. 44). When the Pr. 502 setting is "2", the operation/speed command at a restart is the one given before the error occurrence. When a communication line error occurs at the Pr. 502 setting of "2", removing the error during deceleration causes acceleration to restart at that point. (Acceleration is not restarted if the error is that of the option unit itself.)

When power is turned ON (inverter reset), the initial setting status of the sign bit is "positive" and the set frequency is "0Hz". (EEPROM value is not reflected.) Note that the operation mode when power is turned ON (inverter reset) is PU or External combined operation (Pr.79 = 1, 3), the set frequency is EEPROM value.

PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES

8.10 Instructions
(1) Programming instructions 1) Since the buffer memory data of the master station is kept transferred (refreshed) to/from the inverters, the TO instruction need not be executed every scan in response to data write or read requests. The execution of the TO instruction every scan does not pose any problem. 2) If the FROM/TO instruction is executed frequently, data may not be written reliably. When transferring data between the inverter and sequence program via the buffer memory, perform the handshake to confirm that data has been written without error.

Correct

TO instruction Write completion

Incorrect

TO instruction Write completion

(2) Operating and handling instructions 1) Command only from the programmable controller can be accepted during operation from CC-Link communication. The run command from external and parameter unit is ignored. 2) If the station number set to different inverters is not the same, normal communication cannot be made. 3) The inverter is brought to a fault "E.OP1" if data communication stops for more than the time set in Pr. 500 Communication error execution waiting time due to a programmable controller fault, an open CC-Link dedicated cable etc. during CC-Link operation.

83

PROGRAMMING EXAMPLES
4) If the programmable controller (master station) is reset during CC-Link operation or if the programmable controller is powered off, data communication stops and the inverter is brought to a fault "E.OP1". To reset the programmable controller (master station), switch the operation mode to the external operation once, then reset the programmable controller. 5) When Pr. 340 = "0 (initial value)", any inverter whose main power is restored is reset to return to the External operation mode. To resume the network operation, therefore, set the operation mode to the network operation using the programmable controller program. Set a value other than "0" in Pr. 340 to start in the Network operation mode after inverter reset. (Refer to page 22) (3) Troubleshooting 1) Operation mode does not switch to the Network operation mode Check that the option unit (FR-A7NC) and CC-Link dedicated cables are fitted properly. (Check for contact fault, break in the cable, etc.) Check that Pr. 542 Communication station number (CC-Link) setting switches are set to the correct positions. (Check that the station number matches the program, the station numbers are not repeated, and the station number is not outside the range.) Check that the inverter is in the External operation mode. Check that the operation mode switching program is running. Check that the operation mode switching program has been written correctly. 2) Inverter does not start in the Network operation mode Check that the inverter starting program has been written correctly. Check that the inverter starting program is running. Check that Pr.338 Communication operation command source is not set to external. (Refer to page 25)

Cause
Since the L.RUN LEDs of the FRA7NC on station 1 and the FR-A7NC on station 3 are OFF, the station numbers of the inverters set as stations 1 and 3 are the same.

Corrective Action

After correcting the repeated station numbers of the inverters using Pr. 542 Communication station number (CC-Link), switch power ON again. Since the L.RUN and SD LEDs of the After correcting the FR-A7NC on station 2 are OFF, the transmission speed setting transmission speed setting of the FR- using Pr. 543 Baud rate A7NC on station 2 is wrong within the selection (CC-Link), switch setting range (0 to 4). power on again.

Since the L.ERR LEDs of the FRA7NC on station 2 and later are ON, the transmission cable between the inverters of stations 2 and 3 is affected by noise. (L.RUN may go OFF.) Terminating resistor is not selected. (L.RUN may go OFF.) Check that the transmission cable is connected to SLD. Also run it as far away as possible from the power lines. (100mm or more) Check that the setting of the terminating resistor selection switch is correct. (refer to page 13)
