L2002 Inverter

Network Detection Signal

The Network Detection Signal output indicates the general status of network communi- cations. The inverter has a programmable watchdog timer to monitor network activity. Parameter C077 sets the time-out period. If communications stop or pause longer than the specified time-out period, the Ndc output turns ON.

Operations Monitoring and

Additionally, the inverter can respond to a communications time-out in various ways. Refer to the following diagram (top of next page). You configure the desired response via function C076, Communications Error Select. This selects whether or not you want the inverter to trip (alarm with error code E60) and whether to stop the motor or just let it coast. Together, parameters C076 and C077 set the network detection watchdog time-out and the inverter’s response.
