DriveWindow Light 2 (3AFE64532871)
DriveWindow Light 2 is a PC software used for rapid
commissioning, operating and programming of drives. It has
features for programming, monitoring, troubleshooting and
maintenance.
It is also a set-up and control tool which is Win98, WinNT,
Win2000 and WinXP compatible.
DriveWindow Light 2 operates both off- and on-line. No
additional PC hardware is required. It uses the PC’s
RS-232 port. It is also compatible with drive types ACS350,
ACS800, DCS400 and DCS800.

DrivePM
DrivePM (Parameter Manager) is a software tool designed to
create, edit and copy parameter sets included with a FlashDrop. For each parameter, and parameter group, the user
can change the default or hide the parameter or entire group.
FlashDrop does not require the drive to have power applied.
FlashDrop is also compatible with the ACS150 and ACS350.
ACS/H- CP-E X T: permits permanent mounting of panel to
external surface of NEM A 1 or NEMA 12 enclosures.
ACS/H-CP-EXT-IP66: permits permanent mounting of panel
to external surface of NEMA 4X enclosures.

FlashDrop MFDT-01
FlashDrop is a powerful palm-sized tool for fast and easy
parameter selecting and setting. This tool can be used to
download parameters to a drive in less than three seconds.
Using this tool, it is possible to hide
selected parameters to protect the
machine. Only parameters needed in
the application are shown. FlashDrop
does not require the drive to be powered. The MFDT-01 includes Drive PM
