Installation and wiring
• Turn the inverter's power OFF and wait for at least five minutes. Further, check that the DC link bus
voltage between the P (+) and N (-) terminals is lower than 25 VDC.
• Qualified electricians should carry out wiring.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Do not use the product that is damaged or lacking parts.
Doing so could cause a fire, accident, or injury.
• Prevent lint, paper fibers, sawdust, dust, metallic chips, or other foreign materials from getting into
the inverter and the option.
Otherwise, a fire or an accident might result.
• Incorrect handling in installation/removal jobs could cause a failure.
A failure might result.
• Noise may be emitted from the inverter, motor and wires. Implement appropriate measure to prevent
the nearby sensors and devices from malfunctioning due to such noise.
Otherwise, an accident could occur.
Operation
• Be sure to install the terminal block cover, front cover of the inverter and option terminal cover before
turning the inverter's power ON. Do not remove the covers while power is applied.
Otherwise electric shock could occur.
• Do not operate switches with wet hands.
Doing so could cause electric shock.
• If you set the function codes wrongly or without completely understanding FRENIC-Multi Instruction
Manual (INR-SI47-1094-E) and the FRENIC-Multi User's Manual (MEH457), the motor may rotate
with a torque or at a speed not permitted for the machine. Confirm and adjust the setting of the
function codes before running the inverter.
Otherwise, an accident could occur.
Maintenance and inspection, and parts replacement
• Turn the inverter's power OFF and wait for at least five minutes before starting inspection. Further,
check that the DC link bus voltage between the P (+) and N (-) terminals is lower than 25 VDC.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Maintenance, inspection, and parts replacement should be made only by qualified persons.
• Take off the watch, rings and other metallic objects before starting work.
• Use insulated tools.
Otherwise, electric shock or injuries could occur.

Disposal
• Treat the DeviceNet interface option as an industrial waste when disposing of it.
Otherwise injuries could occur.
Others
• Never attempt to modify the DeviceNet interface option.
Doing so could cause electric shock or injuries.

2.2 DIP Switch
The DIP switch specifies the communication data rate (baud rate) and the node address (MAC ID) on DeviceNet.
It offers a choice of three baud rates (125 kbps, 250 kbps, and 500 kbps) and a choice of node address (MAC
ID) ranging from 0 to 63.
Before accessing the DIP switch, make sure that both the inverter and the option are turned OFF. If
you change the configuration of the DIP switch with the inverter and the option being ON, you need to
restart both the inverter and the option to validate the new settings.
The default settings of the DIP switch at factory shipment are: data rate = 500 kbps, node address = 63.

Chapter 3 INSTALLATION OF THIS OPTION
Turn the inverter's power OFF and wait for at least five minutes. Further, check that the DC link bus voltage
between the P (+) and N (-) terminals is lower than 25 VDC.
Otherwise, electric shock could occur.
• Do not use the product that is damaged or lacking parts.
Doing so could cause a fire, accident, or injury.
• Prevent lint, paper fibers, sawdust, dust, metallic chips, or other foreign materials from getting into
the inverter and the option.
Otherwise, a fire or an accident might result.
• Incorrect handling in installation/removal jobs could cause a failure.
A failure might result.
When handling this option, take any antistatic measure or hold the plastic parts taking care not to directly touch
the circuit board; otherwise, the static electricity charged in your body may damage it.

Before mounting the option, perform the wiring for the main circuit terminals and control circuit
terminals.
(1) Remove the terminal cover from the inverter.
Note: For inverters with a capacity of 5.5 to 15 kW, you need to remove the terminal cover fixing screw to remove
the terminal cover.
For details on how to remove the terminal cover, refer to the FRENIC-Multi Instruction Manual
