Programming with the DOP Plus

L100 Inverter

The screen arrangement is similar to the inverter keypad. Additional buttons Read EEPROM and Write EEPROM let you upload or download parameter settings. After doing a Read EEPROM, all the inverter’s parameter settings will be accessi- ble in the scrollable list box. Just double- click any parameter to begin editing.

It is important to understand that the way you reference parameters with the DOP Plus is different from the inverter keypad and

display. The inverter must use a simple code to identify a parameter, while all the remote terminals and the DOP Plus software have multiple-character capability. Therefore, the software uses more complete parameter names and a different numbering system to index (reference) the parameters. The tables in this chapter list the parameters in the sequence of the inverter keypad, with a cross-reference to the Digital Operator Panels and DOP Plus software parameter names in the right-most column. The diagram below shows a table from this chapter and the DOP+ parameter name cross-references.

TIP: We recommend choosing a particular programming tool at the beginning of your inverter configuration project. Avoid switching programming tools until you become familiar with most or all of the inverter parameters.

The DOP Plus software comes with an instruction manual. Please refer to that manual for details on how to establish communications with the inverter from your PC, and how to edit, upload, and download parameters. See Appendix B for DOP monitor and function tables.
