Appendix 2 Response time

The communication response time can be calculated from data communication time and inverter processing time. When wishing to know the communication response time, calculate using the following as a reference

Interval corresponding to 3.5 bytes

*Number of bits = start bit + data frame length + parity bit + stop bit

*Minimum number of bits = 1 + 8 + 0 + 1 = 10 bits

*Maximum number of bits = 1 + 8 + 1 + 2 = 12 bits
