Guideline for Suppressing Harmonics in Home Electric and General-purpose
Appliances
Our three-phase, 200 V class series inverters of 3.7 kW or less (FRENIC-Mini series) were the products of
which were restricted by the "Guideline for Suppressing Harmonics in Home Electric and General-purpose
Appliances" (established in September 1994 and revised in October 1999) issued by the Ministry of
Economy, Trade and Industry.
The above restriction, however, was lifted when the Guideline was revised in January 2004. Since then, the
inverter makers have individually imposed voluntary restrictions on the harmonics of their products.
We, as before, recommend that you connect a reactor (for suppressing harmonics) to your inverter. As a
reactor, select a "DC REACTOR" introduced in this manual. For use of the other reactor, please inquire of us
about detailed specifications.

In running
generalpurpose
motors
Vibration
Noise
When driving a 400 V general-purpose motor with an inverter using
extremely long wires, damage to the insulation of the motor may occur. Use
an output circuit filter (OFL) if necessary after checking with the motor
manufacturer. Fuji motors do not require the use of output circuit filters
because of their reinforced insulation.
When the inverter is used to run a general-purpose motor, the temperature
of the motor becomes higher than when it is operated using a commercial
power supply. In the low-speed range, the cooling effect will be weakened,
so decrease the output torque of the motor. If constant torque is required in
the low-speed range, use a Fuji inverter motor or a motor equipped with an
externally powered ventilating fan.
When an inverter-drive n m otor i s m ounte d to a m achine, resona nce m ay be
caused by the natural frequencies of the machine system.
Note that operation of a 2-pole motor at 60 Hz or higher may cause
abnormal vibration.
* The use of a rubber coupling or vibration-proof rubber is recommended.
* Use the inverter's jump frequency control feature to skip the resonance
frequency zone(s).
When an inverter is used with a general-purpose motor, the motor noise
level is higher than that with a commercial power supply. To reduce noise,
raise carrier frequency of the inverter. Operation at 60 Hz or higher can als o
result in higher level of wind roaring sound.

Brake motors
Geared motors
Single-phase
motors
If the reference frequency is set to 120 Hz or more to drive a high-speed
motor, test-run the combination of the inverter and motor beforehand to
check for safe operation.
When driving an explosion-proof motor with an inverter, use a combination
of a motor and an inverter that has been approved in advance.
These motors have a higher rated current than general-purpose motors.
Select an inverter whose rated output current is higher than that of the
motor.
These motors differ from general-purpose motors in thermal characteristics.
Set a low value in the thermal time constant of the motor when setting the
electronic thermal overcurrent protection (for motor).
For motors equipped with parallel-connected brakes, their power supply for
brake must be supplied from the inverter’s primary circuit. If the power
supply for brake is connected to the inverter's output circuit by mistake, the
brake will not work.
Do not use inverters for driving motors with series-connected brake coils.
If the power transmission mechanism uses an oil-lubricated gearbox or
speed changer/reducer, then continuous motor operation at low speed may
cause poor lubrication. Avoid such operation.
Single-phase motors are not suitable for inverter-driven variable speed
operation. Use three-phase motors.
Environmental
conditions
Installation
location
Use the inverter within the ambient temperature range from -10 to +50°C.
The heat sink and braking resistor of the inverter may become hot under
certain operating conditions, so install the inverter on nonflammable
material such as metal.
Ensure that the installation location meets the environmental conditions
specified in Chapter 8, Section 8.4 "Operating Environment and Storage
Environment."
iii
Install a recommended molded case circuit breaker (MCCB) or
Installing an
MCCB or
RCD/ELCB
breaker (ELCB) (with overcurrent protection) in the primary circuit of each

Do not turn the magnetic contactor (MC) in the primary circuit on or off
more than once an hour as an inverter failure may result.
If frequent starts or stops are required during motor operation, use terminal
[FWD]/[REV] signals or the
key.
/
The electronic thermal feature of the inverter can protect the motor. The
operation level and the motor type (general-purpose motor, inverter motor)
should be set. For high-speed motors or water-cooled motors, set a small
value for the thermal time constant.
If you connect the motor thermal relay to the motor with a long wire, a
high-frequency current may flow into the wiring stray capacitance. This
may cause the thermal relay to trip at a current lower than the set value. If
this happens, lower the carrier frequency or use the output circuit filter
(OFL).
Do not connect power-factor correcting capacitors to the inverter’s primary
circuit. (Use the DC reactor to improve the inverter power factor.) Do not
use power-factor correcting capacitors in the inverter’s output (secondary)
circuit. An overcurrent trip will occur, disabling motor operation.
Do not connect a surge killer to the inverter's output (secondary) circuit.
Use of a filter and shielded wires is typically recommended to satisfy EMC
Directive.
Refer to Appendices, App. A "Advantageous Use of Inverters (Notes on
electrical noise)" for details.
If an overvoltage trip occurs while the inverter is stopped or operated under

light load, it is assumed that the surge current is generated by open/close of
the phase-advancing capacitor in the power system.
* Connect a DC reactor to the inverter.
When checking the insulation resistance of the inverter, use a 500 V megger

When using remote control, limit the wiring length between the inverter and
operator panel to 20 m or less and use twisted pair or shielded wire.
If long wiring is used between the inverter and the motor, the inverter may
overheat or trip due to overcurrent because a higher harmonics current
flows into the stray capacitance between each phase wire. Ensure that the
wiring is shorter than 50 m. If this length must be exceeded, lower the
carrier frequency or install an output circuit filter (OFL).

INTRODUCTION TO FRENIC-Mini
This chapter describes the features and control system of the FRENIC-Mini series, and the recommended
configuration for the inverter and peripheral equipment.
1.2 Control System..........................................................................................................................................1-10
• Dynamic torque vector control providing bumped-up torque performance
Fuji's original dynamic torque vector control broadens the range of applications.
• RS-485 communications port provided as standard to facilitate system configuration
While the original FRENIC-Mini series has an RS-485 communications port as an option, the
upgraded one has it as standard, making it easy to connect the upgraded one to a PLC and facilitating
system configuration.
• Slow flowrate stop function under PID control for further energy saving
Under PID control for constant pump discharge pressure, the slow flowrate stop function stops the
inverter when the pump discharge pressure is high, which achieves further energy saving.
• Braking signal function making the FRENIC-Mini applicable to simple vertical lift
applications
The upgraded FRENIC-Mini series supports brake ON/O FF signals that are conventi onally su pported
by the upper inverter series only. The braking signal fun ction enables t he FRENIC-Mini to be applied
to simple vertical lift applications.
• Motor switching function
Turning the Di terminal ON and OFF switches between parameters specified for the 1st motor and
those for the 2nd motor. This further broadens the range of applications.
1.1 Features

function, these inverters ensure consistent and powerful operation (when automatic torque boost and
slip compensation control are ON and start frequency is set at 3 Hz).
Figure 1.1 Torque Characteristics Data
(Dynamic torque vector control: ON)
Figure 1.2 Example of Output Torque Characteristics
• Braking resistor connectable to the inverter
FRENIC-Mini series of inverters features a built-in braking transistor (for inverters of 0.4 kW (1/2
HP) or larger), which makes it possible for an opt ional braki ng resistor to be connecte d to increase t he
regenerative braking ability for conveya nce and transpor tation machin ery that req uires stro ng braking
power.
• Trip-free operation
The remarkably improved current limiting function (stall prevention) ensures trip-free operation even
for impact loads.
Figure 1.3 Example of Response for Impact Load Torque
• Stable operation even for a step load
The slip compensation function ensures stable operation even when the motor load fluctuates (step
load).
Figure 1.4 Example of Response for Step Load Torque (Refer to the note in Figure 1.2 for the test configuration.)

• Inclusion of a brake signal makes it even more convenient
At brake release time
After the motor runs, the inverter detects torque generation and outputs signals.
1.1 Features
Chap. 1 INTRODUCTION TO FRENIC-Mini
At brake application time
Brake application that matches the timing can be done, so mechanical brake wear is reduced.
• Tripless deceleration by automatic deceleration control
The inverter controls the energy level generated and the deceleration time to decelerate to stop the
motor without tripping due to overvoltage.
Figure 1.5
Default functions for fans and pumps
• Automatic energy-saving function provided as standard
To minimize the total loss (motor loss plus inverter loss), rather than just the motor loss as in the
predecessor models, FRENIC-Mini saves even more power when used with fans or pumps.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.
* Energy savings vary depending on the motor characteristics.
Figure 1.6 Example of Energy Savings

• PID control function
Permits motor operation while controlling temperature, pressure, or flow rate without using an
external device such as a temperature regulator. Under the constant pump discharge pressure control,
the slow flowrate stop function is available.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.8 "PID Frequency Command Generator" for details.
• Cooling fan ON/OFF control function
The inverter's cooling fan can be turned off while the fan or pump is stopped for noise reduction and
energy savings.
The ideal functions to serve a multiplicity of needs forsmall-capacity inverters
• Compatible with a wide range of frequency settings
You can select the optimum frequency setti ng method that m atches your m achine or equipm ent via the
/
keypad (
1 to 5 V), 16 multistep speed settings (0 to 15 steps) or via RS-485 communications.
• A transistor output is provided
This enables an overload early warning, lifetime forecast or other information signals to be output
during operation.
Refer to function code E20 in Chapter 9, Section 9.2.2 " E codes (Extension terminal functio ns)."
• High output frequency - up to 400 Hz
The inverter can be used with equipment such as centrifugal separators that require a high motor speed.
In this case, you need to check whether the machine operation in combination with the motor is
compatible or not.
• Three points can be set for a non-linear V/f pattern.
The addition of an extra point (total 3 points) for the non-linear V/f pattern, which ca n be set as desired,
improves the FRENIC-Mini's drive capability, because the V/f pattern can be adjusted to match a
wider application area.

1.2 Control System
This section gives you a general overview of inverter control systems and features specific to the
FRENIC-Mini series of inverters.
As shown in Figure 1.8, single- or three-phase commercial power is converted to DC power in the
converter section, which is then used to charge the capacitor on the DC link bus. Accor ding to co ntrol
commands or signals generated in the control logic, the inverter modulates the electricity charged in
the capacitor to PWM (Pulse Width Modulation) format and feeds the output to the motor. The
modulation frequency is called "carrier frequency." As shown in Figure 1.7, the voltage waveform of
the modulated power source produces pulse train with positive and negative polarity synchronized
with the inverter's output comm and frequ e ncy . The inverter feeds the produced output as drive power
with sinusoidal current waveform like that of ordinary commercial power lines.
PWM voltage waveform Current waveform
Figure 1.7 Output Voltage and Current Waveform of the Inverter
For the reference frequency given in the control logic, the accelerator/decelerator pr ocessor calculate s
the acceleration/deceleration rate required by run/stop control of the m otor and transfers the calc ulated
results to the 3-phase voltage command processor directly or via the V/f pattern generator.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.7 "Drive Command Controller" for details.
The FRENIC-Mini series changes the voltage control from the "Simplified Torque-Vector Control"
using a magnetic flux estimator in conventiona l inverter series, to the Dynam ic Torque Vector Control
adopted in upper inverter series. Accordingly, the FRENIC-Mini series assures high start torque that
the conventional series cannot obtain, broadening the range of applications.
The control logic section, which is the very brain of the invert er, allows you to customize the i nverter's
driving patterns using the function code settings.
Refer to Chapter 4 "BLOCK DIAGRAMS FOR CONTROL LOGIC" for details.

With the potentiometer on the keypad (factory default)
If you set function code F01 to "4: Potentiom eter on the keypad" (factory default) a nd select frequency
setting-1 with function codes E01 through E03 (Hz2/Hz1 = OFF), then the potentiometer becomes
enabled to set up the reference frequency. Setting function code C30 to "4: Potentiometer on the
keypad" and selecting frequency setting-2 (Hz2/Hz1 = ON) also produce the same effect.
With
If you set function code F01 to "0: Keypad operation" and select frequency setting-1, then
keys become enabled to set up the reference frequency in Running mode. In any other operation
modes, those keys remain disabled.
Pressing
keys again makes it possible to change the reference frequency. The new setting will be saved
internally. Even if the inverter is switched to any other frequency entry method and then returned to
the keypad entry method, the setting will be retained.
Further, even turning OFF the inverter will automatically save the setting into the non-volatile
memory. At the next time when the inverter is turned ON, the setting will become the default
frequency.

In the PID control mode, the items that can be set or checked with
keys are different from
those under normal frequency control, depending upon the current LED monitor setting. If the LED
monitor is set to the speed monitor (E43 = 0), you may access manual feed commands (Reference

keys; if it is set to any other, you may access PID process commands with
those keys.
Refer to Chapter 4, Section 4.8 "PID Frequency Command Generator" for details on the PID
control.
Setting the PID process command with the built-in potentiometer
Set function code E60 to "3: PID process command 1" and J02 to " 1: PID process comm and 1." After
that, selecting PID control remote process command enables you to set the PID process command

Displaying I/O signal status in hexadecimal format
Each I/O terminal is assigned to bit 15 through bit 0 as listed in Table 3.11. An unassigned bit is
interpreted as "0." Allocated bit data is displayed on the LED monitor in 4-digit hexadecimals ("0" to
"F" each).
With the FRENIC-Mini, digital input terminals [FWD] and [REV] are assigned to bit 0 and bit 1,
respectively. Terminals [X1] through [X3] are assigned to bits 2 through 4. The value "1" is set for
each bit when the assigned input terminal is short-circuited (ON) with terminal [CM]. The value "0"
when it opens (OFF). For example, when [FWD] and [X1] are ON and all others are OFF, the display
on LED4 to LED1 would be 0005.
Bit 0 is assigned to digital output terminal [Y1]. The value "1" is set when the terminal is
short-circuited with [Y1E], and the value "0" is set when it opens. The status of the mechanical relay
contact output terminal [30A], [30B] and [30C] are assigned to bit 8. The value "1" is set when the
circuit between output terminals [30A] and [30C] is clos ed and the value "0" when the circuit between
[30B] and [30C] is closed. For example, if [Y1] is ON and the circuit between [30A] and [30C] are
short-circuited with each other, then the display for LED4 to LED1 would be 0101.

FRENIC-Mini inverters are equipped with a num ber of function codes to m atch a variety of m otor operations
required in your system. Refer to Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES" for details of the function codes.
The function codes have functional relationship with each other. Several special function codes also work
with execution priority with each other depending upon their data settings.
This chapter contains the main block diagr am s for contr ol l ogic i n the i nverter a nd de scribes th e relati onship

4.2 Drive Frequency Command Generator
Figure 4.1 shows the processes that generate the final drive frequency command from the frequency settings
given by various means and those switched/modified by function codes. If PID process control takes effect
(J01=1 or 2), the drive frequency generation will differ from that shown in this diagram. (Refer to Section 4.8
"PID Frequency Command Generator.")
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- Frequency settings using the
key on the keypad may take a different format by means of the data
/
setting for function code E48. Refer to function code E48 in Chapter 9 "FUNCTION CODES" for details.
- [C1] input as a frequency settings signal will always be interpreted as "0" when the current input signal
terminal [C1] is specified for the thermistor (H26 = 1, 2).
- Settings for both gain and bias will take effect concurrently only for frequency setting 1 (F01). For
frequency setting 2 (C30) and auxiliary frequency settings 1 and 2 (E60 to E62), only the gain will take
effect.
- Gain for the built-in potentiometer cannot be changed by any function code or other means.
- Switching between normal and inverse operation is only effective for frequency setting from the analog
input signal (terminal [12], [C1] or built-in potentiometer). Frequency settings from the
/
key are
only valid for normal operation.
- The command formats for frequency settings by S01 and S05 for the communications link facility take a
different form, as follows:
- S01: the setting range is –32768 to +32767, where the maximum output frequency is obtained at
±20000.
- S05: the setting range is 0.00 to 655.35 Hz in 0.01 Hz step, or 0.1 Hz step for the maximum
frequency exceeding 600 Hz.
- Priority level for setting for S01 is higher than that for S05. If a value other than 0 is set for S01,
then the data set to S01 will take effect. If S01 = 0, the setting for S05 will take effect.
- Refer to the RS-485 Communication User's Manual (MEH448) for details.

4.3 Drive Command Generator
The drive command generator shown in Figure 4.2 produces final drive comm ands (FWD: Drive the motor i n
the forward direction) and (REV: Drive the motor in reverse direction) from the r un commands that are given
by various means and modified/switched by function codes.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- For the run command given by the
the
key and releases it upon depression of the key except during jogging operation.
/
key, the generator holds the command ON upon depression of
- The hold command HLD holds the run forward/reverse commands FWD/REV until it is turned OFF. This
allows you to run the inverter in "3-Wire Operation." Refer to the function code E01 in Chapter 9
"FUNCTION CODES" for details.
If you do not assign a hold command HLD to any digital input terminals, then the "2-Wire Operation"
using the FWD and REV command will be active.
/
- Setting 0 (zero) for function code F02 allows you to operate the inverter using the
key on the
built-in keypad for the run command, while the FWD and REV commands determine direction of motor
rotation. The logic shown in the block diagram shows you that if the run command from the
key and
either the FWD or REV command are given, then the internal run command <FWD> or <REV> decode d
internally by the logic turns ON.
- S06 (2-byte data for bit 15 through bit 0 can be manipulated), the operation command by the
communications link, includes:
- Bit 0: assigned to FWD
- Bit 1: assigned to REV
- Bits 13 and 14: programmable bits equivalent to the terminal inputs [FWD] and [REV]
- In the block diagram, all of these are noted as operation commands. The data setting for function co d e
E98 to specify the terminal signal property for [FWD] and E99 for [REV] determine which bit value
should be selected as the run command. If bits 13 and 14 hav e th e same setting to specify the property
for (FWD) or (REV), the output of bit 13-14 processor logic will follow the truth table list ed in Fig ure
4.2.
- If either one of bits 13 and 14 is ON (1 as logic value), the OR logic will make the link command LE
turn ON.
- If both run commands FWD and REV come ON concurrently, the logic forces the internal run commands
<FWD> and <REV> to immediately turn OFF.
- If you set 1 or 3 to function code H96 (STOP key priority/Start Check) to make the
key priority
effective, then depressing the key forces the internal run commands <FWD> and <REV> to
immediately turn OFF.
- If you have enabled operat io n via the timer, inputting any run command starts the timer. The internal run
command <FWD> or <REV> and hold command HLD triggered by key pad will be aut om atically turned
OFF after the time preset in the timer has elapsed.
Chap. 4 BLOCK DIAGRAMS FOR CONTROL LOGIC
- If the reference frequency is lower than the start frequency (F23) or the stop frequency (F25), the internal
run commands will remain OFF.

4.4 Terminal Command Decoders
Programmable digital input terminals [X1], [X2], [X3], [FWD] and [REV] can be assigned to internal
terminal commands such as FWD or REV decoded by data settin gs of related fu nction codes as shown in the
block diagrams in Figures 4.3 (a) through 4.3 (d). In the decoders, negative logic input signals are also
applicable if you set data of 1000s to the function code.
The contents of the block diagram are div ided into five gr oups, dependi ng on whether inputs are assigne d for
the same internal terminal comm ands respectively or t he commands iss ued from the comm unications facility
(linked operation) specify the internal commands. Each of the diagrams shown in Figure 4.3 has following
role.
- Figure 4.3 (a) The terminal command decoder (general) shows the decoding process of the internal
commands functioning with the negative l ogic inputs. T his is switchab le with inputs from
the communications facility (for example, link operation commands received through
RS-485 communications).
- Figure 4.3 (b) The terminal command decoder (terminal signal inputs) shows the process to decode
internal terminal commands de dica ted to the con trol si gnal in put applie d to the in verter 's
terminal block. These commands cannot be changed via the com munications facility (link
operation command).
- Figure 4.3 (c) The terminal command decoder (terminal signal input excluding negative logic) shows
process to produce FWD and REV commands. In this process, settings via the
communications facility do not take effect. In the next process of the drive command
generator, however, they may take effect. (Refer to the block diagram in Section 4.3,
"Drive Command Generator.") To keep the inverter operation safe, any negative logic
input for the FWD and REV commands cannot be applied.
- Figure 4.3 (d) The upper part of the terminal command decoder (ORing with link commands/ignoring
link commands) shows the process to produce commands by ORing signals issued from
the communications facility and the control sign al input term inal bl ock (Logical Orin g. If
any of input signals is ON, then the command becomes ON.).
The lower part of the terminal command decoder shows the control in which only digital
inputs of all control signals are enabled even if link operation command LE has been
turned ON.

Analog Output
[FMA]
The block diagram shown in Figure 4.5 shows the process for selecting and processing the analog signals to
be outputted to the analog output terminal [FMA]. Function code F31 determines the signals to be outputted
to [FMA]. Function code F30 scales the output s ignal to a level sui table for th e m eters to be con nected to the
[FMA] terminal.
The output voltage range is 0 to 10 VDC and the maximum allowable load current is 2 m A. This is capable of
driving two analog voltmeters with a common rating.
The test analog output is full-scale voltage output that adjusts the scale of the connected meter.

4.7 Drive Command Controller
The simplified block diagram shown in Figure 4.6 explains t he process in which the inverter drives the m otor
according to the internal run command <FWD>/<REV> from the frequency genera tor, or the PID freque ncy
command from the PID controller, and the run commands.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- The logic shown in the left part of the block diagram processes the drive frequency command so as to
invert (×(-1)) the command for reverse rotation of the motor or to replace it with 0 (zero) for stopping the
motor.
- The accelerator/decelerator processor determines the output frequency of the inverter by referring to the
set data of related function codes. If the output frequency exceeds the peak frequency given by function
code F15, the controller limits the output frequency at the peak.
- Acceleration/deceleration time is selectable from acceleration/deceleration time 1 or 2, or
acceleration/deceleration time for jogging operation. The suppression of the regenerative braking feature
may multiply the commanded acceleration/deceleration time by 3. Refer to role of function code H69 in
the block diagram.
- If the overload prevention control feature is active, then the logic automatically switches the output
frequency to one of overload suppression control and controls the inverter using the switched frequency.
However, if the current limit control is active (F43 ≠ 30, H12 = 1), the overload prevention control
automatically becomes inactive.
- If the current limit control is active, then the logic automatically switches the output frequency to one of
current limit control and controls inverter using the switched frequency.
- The slip compensation facility adds frequency components based on the preset rated slip frequency (P12)
to the frequency currently commanded. The logic adjusts the error according to the settings of the slip
compensation gain for driving (P09) and braking (P11).
the set data of function code P09 that controls slip compensation gain for the motor.
- The voltage processor determines the output voltage of the inverter. The processor adjusts the output
voltage to control the motor output torque.
- If DC braking control is active, the logic switches the voltage and frequency control components to ones
determined by the DC braking block to feed the proper power to the motor for DC braking.

4.8 PID Frequency Command Generator
The block diagram shown in Figure 4.7 shows the PID frequency command generator that becomes active
when the PID control is enabled (J01= 1 or 2). The logic shown generates the final frequency command
according to the PID process command given by various means of setting and feedback, or frequency settings
as a speed command given manually, and various means of switching.
Additional and supplemental information is given below.
- Switching of data settings for frequency 2 (C30), auxiliary frequencies 1 and 2 (E60 to E62) as manual
speed commands will be disabled.
- For multistep frequency settings, settings 1 to 3 are exclusively applicable to the manual PID speed
command.
- For selecting analog input (terminal [12], [C1], or built-i n POT) as the PID process comm and, you need to
set proper data for function codes E60 to E62 and J02.
- Multistep frequencies that can be used as a PID process command include multistep frequency 4 (C08), 8
(C12) and 12 (C16).
- To switch the operation between normal and inverse, the logic inverses polarity of deviation between the
PID command and its feedback (turning INV command ON/OFF, or setting J01 = 1 or 2).
- Refer to Section 4.2 " Drive Frequency Command Generator" for explanations of common items.

RUNNING THROUGH RS-485
COMMUNICATIONS
This chapter describes an overview of inverter operation through the RS-485 communications link. Refer to
the RS-485 Communication User's Manual (MEH448) for details.

5.2.3.2 Running status monitor...............................................................................................................5-7
Using the RS-485 communications port on the FRENIC-Mini series enables the following extended
functions.
Operation from a remote keypad
Connecting a remote keypad to the RS-485 communications port on the inverter with an extension
cable allows you to mount the keypad on the easy-to-access front of a panel. The maximum length of
the extension cable is 20 m (66 ft.).
Operation by FRENIC Loader
The FRENIC-Mini can be connected to a Windows-based PC, on whi ch you can run FREN IC Loader
(see Section 5.2 "Overview of FRENIC Loader.") to edit the function code data and monitor the
running status information of the inverter.
Operation from the host equipment
The FRENIC-Mini can be connected to host equipment (m aster) such as a PLC or com puter. It can act
as a slave device.
Protocols for managing a network inclu ding inverters include t he Modbus RTU protocol (compliant to
the protocol established by Modicon Inc.) that is widely used in FA markets and the Fuji
general-purpose protocol that supports the FRENIC-Mini and conventional series of inverters.
Chap. 5 RUNNING THROUGH RS-485 COMMUNICATIONS
For the remote keypad, the inverter uses the dedicated protocol that automatically switches
the operation source to the remote keypad, so no function code setting is required.
For FRENIC loader, however, you need to set up function code H30 for some
communications conditions although the dedic ated protocol is used.

5-3
5.1.3 Connection
You need to select devices suitable for your network configuration, referring to the figure shown
below.
Converter
Some computers are not equipped with an RS-485 communications port but with a USB port, so a
USB/RS-485 converter is required to connect them to the RS-485 communications p ort on the inverter.
It is recommended that insulated converters such as RS-485/RS-485 converters be used for
eliminating electric noise.
Multi-drop branch connector
The RS-485 communications port on the FRENIC-Mini uses an RJ-45 connector. For multi-drop
connection of inverters, therefore, multi-drop branch connectors (MS8-BA-JJJ by SK Koki Co.) are
required.
Cable
For the connection of the remote keypad, use an 8-wire straight cable with an RJ-45 connector.
(Remote keypad extension cable option: CB-5S)
For the connection of other equipment or connection of FRENIC-Mini inverters with each other, us e a
cable that has signal wires only. (EIA568-compliant 10BASE-T)
- No converter is required for connection of the remote keypad.
- To connect the FVR-E11S series of general-purpose inverters to the FRENIC-Mini
series, take necessary measures for the difference of the pin assignment between
FVR-E11S and FRENIC-Mini series to avoid a short-circuited failure.
