Using the PC Software — DOP Plus

During application development, using the DOP Plus software is a great way to configure your inverter. This package works with several Hitachi inverter families, providing these features:

•Automatic detection of inverter family

•Save parameter settings to disk

•Load parameters settings from disk

•Print all parameters and functions

•Compare inverter settings with disk file

•RS232/422 converter and cable included

•Built-in help screens for functions

•Automatic Quick Function Parameter Select

•Runs on a PC with either Windows 3.1, Win95/98, or Windows NT

Initial setup is easy, using the 2-meter cable and RS232/422 converter as shown below. The RS422 electrical characteristics are more noise-immune to electrical interference from inverters and large motors. We recommend that you keep the communications cable away from inverter power supply or motor wiring as a precaution.

When you connect the cable and go on-line with the DOP software, the inverter keypad is disabled (except for the Stop/Reset key). When you go off-line or disconnect the cable, the inverter keypad becomes fully enabled.
