Comparison Summary, Standard vs. DeviceNet Series
The Hitachi L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters generally have the same motor control
capability as the standard L100 inverters. However, a few important differences do exist.
The addition of DeviceNet network connectivity to Hitachi inverters is accompanied by
some changes to the available parameters, functions, front panel keypad, and intelligent
terminals. Together, these changes provide a complete inverter solution with DeviceNet
network capability, while removing some features that are generally unused in
networked applications.

TIP: When using the standard L100 Series manual with your L100DN DeviceNet series
inverter, refer to this page for a summary of the exceptions to that manual. Also note that
your L100DN inverter comes with its own Quick Reference Guide (QRG).
Inverter Specifications Label
The Hitachi L100DN Series inverters have product labels located on the right side of the
housing, as pictured below. Be sure to verify that the specifications on the labels match
your power source, motor, and application safety requirements.

Hitachi L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters are optimized for use on a DeviceNet
network. The inverter can respond to commands such as Run/Stop from a network host
device, for example. L100DN inverters can also drive a motor in stand-alone mode,
without a network connection. In that case, you use the inverter’s keypad or input terminals for Run/Stop commands. However, this addendum will use stand-alone operation
only for initial powerup tests of your L100DN inverter during installation. After the
installation material, the addendum covers network operation in detail.
The diagram below shows L100DN inverters connected to a DeviceNet network. Each
connection is called a node, and the L100DN connects to the network via the 5-pin,
color-coded Phoenix connector on the front panel as shown.
A DeviceNet network supports up to 64 devices, each with their own node address. One
device will be the network master; all other device(s) will be network slaves. The
L100DN inverter will operate as a network slave, as the network master (also called host computer) will send commands to the slaves.
A factory network such as DeviceNet allows you to integrate devices of many different
types, even from various manufacturers, all into an integrated control system. A common
application that uses DeviceNet is a conveyor line. Typical devices on the network
include a PLC (programmable logic controller) or host computer (such as a PC), inverter
drives to run motors, proximity sensors, limit switches, diverter actuators, barcode
scanners, label printers, and other packaging or shipping devices. Note that Hitachi also
provides the L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters, which can also reside on the
DeviceNet network.
For detailed DeviceNet network configuration instructions, see “Network Control and
Monitoring” on page 39.
L100DN Inverter
General Specifications
L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters have the same electrical characteristics for driving
the motor as the standard L100 inverters. So, refer to the L100 instruction manual for the
electrical specifications tables and derating curves. The general specifications in this
section will be similar to the those for the standard L100 inverters, but they reflect the

Inverter Mounting and Installation
This section describes the L100 Series installation corresponding to Chapter 2, “Inverter
Mounting and Installation,” in the L100 Inverter Instruction Manual.
Orientation to Inverter Features
Please take a few moments to unpack your new L100DN inverter and do these steps:
1. Look for any damage that may have occurred during shipping.
2. Verify the contents of the box include:
a. One L100DN inverter
b. One Addendum for L100DN inverter (read this addendum first!)
c. One L100 Instruction Manual
d. One L100DN Quick Reference Guide
e. One packet of desiccant—discard (not for human consumption)
3. Inspect the specifications label on the side of the inverter. Make sure it matches the
product part number you ordered.
L100DN Inverter

The L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters vary in size according to the current output
rating and motor size for each model number. All feature the same basic keypad and
connector interface for consistent ease of use. The inverter construction has a heat sink at
the back of the housing. The larger models include a fan(s) to enhance heat sink performance. The mounting holes are pre-drilled in the heat sink for your convenience. Never
touch the heat sink during or just after operation; it can be very hot.
The electronics housing and front panel are built onto the front of the heat sink. The front
panel has two levels of physical access designed for convenience and safety:
• First-level access – for basic use of inverter, editing parameters, and wiring control
signals or network connection (power ON)
• Second-level access – for wiring the inverter power supply or motor (power OFF)
1. First-level Access – View the unit just as it
came from the box as shown. The four-digit
display can show a variety of performance
parameters. LEDs indicate whether the
display units are Hertz or Amperes. Other
LEDs indicate AC Power (external), Run/
Stop Mode, Program/Monitor Mode,
Module Status, and Network status.
Membrane keys Run and Stop/Reset
control motor operation. And, you can
access the two chassis GND screws on the
metal tab at the bottom of the inverter.

2. Second-level access – First, ensure no
power source of any kind is connected to
the inverter. If power has been connected,
wait five minutes after powerdown and
verify the Power LED is OFF to proceed.
Then locate the recessed retention screw
on the left side main front panel (it is
along the left hinge area on some models,
or behind the first access door on others).
Use a small screwdriver (Regular or
Phillips) to loosen the screw. Swing the
door around to the right to reveal the
internal components of the drive. The twolevel tiered 12-position terminal block

accepts wires for the power input and
wires to the motor.
NOTE: The 3-terminal connector located on the circuit board behind the hinged front
door can be used to connect DeviceNet network power. See “Step 2 – Connect Network
Devices” on page 43 for more information.
Notice the housing partition that lifts out to
allow full access to the terminals for wiring
as shown. Never operate the inverter drive
with the partition removed or the full access
door opened.
Never directly touch any terminal or circuit
component. This protects you from touching
a n unexpected live circuit, and it protects the
inverter from electrostatic discharge (ESD).
The power and motor connector terminals are
accessible with the removal of the housing
partition. The input power and motor connections use the lower row of terminals. The
upper row is for connecting dynamic braking
components.

Inverter Mounting and Installation
System Description and Basic Installation
The Basic System Description and Step-by-Step Basic Installation sections in Chapter 2
of the standard L100 manual (included) will show you how to choose a mounting
location and wire the inverter’s power input and motor output terminals. Wire gauge,
terminal torque specifications, fuse or breaker size, and many important Warning and
Caution messages are included. So, all of the information you need to physically install
your L100DN DeviceNet inverter is in the standard manual—with the exception of the
dimension drawings, which follow below.
NOTE: After doing the basic installation (physical mounting and power wiring) per the
instructions in Chapter 2 of the L100 manual, be sure to return to this addendum for the
Powerup Test and Front Panel Keypad orientation.
Check Inverter Dimensions – Locate the applicable drawing on the following pages for
your inverter.
Dimensions are given in millimeters (inches) format.
After wiring the inverter and motor, you’re ready to do a powerup test. The procedure
that follows is designed for the first-time use of the drive. Please verify the following
conditions before conducting the powerup test:
• You have followed all the steps in this chapter up to this step.
• The inverter is new, and is securely mounted to a non-flammable vertical surface
• The inverter is connected to a power source and motor.
• No additional wiring of inverter connectors or terminals has been done.
• The power supply is reliable, and the motor is a known working unit, and the motor
nameplate ratings match the inverter ratings.
• The motor is securely mounted, and is not connected to any load.
Goals for the Powerup test
If there are any exceptions to the above conditions at this step, please take a moment to
take any measures necessary to reach this basic starting point. The specific goals of this
powerup test are:
1. Verify that the wiring to the power supply and motor is correct.
2. Demonstrate that the inverter and motor are generally compatible.
3. Give a brief introduction to the use of the built-in operator keypad.
The powerup test gives you an important starting point to ensure a safe and successful
application of the Hitachi inverter. We highly recommend performing this test before
proceeding to the other chapters in this manual.
Pre-test and Operational Precautions
The following instructions apply to the powerup test, or to any time the inverter is
powered and operating. Please study the following instructions and messages before
proceeding with the powerup test.
1. The power supply must have fusing suitable for the load. Check the fuse size chart
presented in the inverter manual in Chapter 2, if necessary.
2. Be sure you have access to a disconnect switch for the drive input power if necessary.
However, do not turn OFF power during inverter operation unless it is an emergency.
CAUTION: The heat sink fins will have a high temperature. Be careful not to touch
them. Otherwise, there is the danger of getting burned.
CAUTION: The operation of the inverter can be easily changed from low speed to high
speed. Be sure to check the capability and limitations of the motor and machine before
operating the inverter. Otherwise, there is the danger of injury.
CAUTION: If you operate a motor at a frequency higher than the inverter standard
default setting (50Hz/60Hz), be sure to check the motor and machine specifications with
the respective manufacturer. Only operate the motor at elevated frequencies after getting
their approval. Otherwise, there is the danger of equipment damage and/or injury.
CAUTION: Check the following before and during the powerup test. Otherwise, there is
the danger of equipment damage.
•Is the shorting bar between the [+1] and [+] terminals installed? DO NOT power or
operate the inverter if the jumper is removed.
•Is the direction of the motor rotation correct?
•Did the inverter trip during acceleration or deceleration?
•Were the RPM and frequency meter readings as expected?
•Were there any abnormal motor vibrations or noise?
Powering the Inverter
If you have followed all the steps, cautions and warnings up to this point, you’re ready to
apply power. After doing so, the following events should occur:
L100DN Inverter
17
• The POWER LED will illuminate.
• The numeric (7-segment) LEDs will display a test pattern, then stop at 0.0.
• The Hz LED will be ON. (This assumes the inverter is in Monitor Mode and is
displaying D_01, the output frequency.)
• The MS (Module Status) and NS (Network Status) LEDs will exhibit a test pattern;
each LED will briefly show green, then red. The ending state of powerup pattern is:
MS = Green; NS = OFF.
If the motor starts running unexpectedly or any other problem occurs, press the STOP
key. Only if necessary should you remove power to the inverter as a remedy.
NOTE: If the inverter has been previously powered and programmed, the LEDs (other
than the POWER LED) may illuminate differently than as indicated above. If necessary,
you can initialize all parameters to the factory default settings. See “Restoring Factory
Default Settings” on page 94 or refer to the L100DN Quick Reference Guide.

Selecting Functions and Editing Parameters
In order to run the motor for the powerup test, this section will show how to:
• select the inverter’s maximum output frequency to the motor
• set the value of parameter F_01 to the output frequency for the powerup test
• select the keypad as the source of the RUN command
The following series of programming tables are designed for successive use. Each table
uses the previous table’s final state as the starting point. Therefore, start with the first and
continue programming until the last one. If you get lost or concerned that some of the
other parameters settings may be incorrect, refer to “Restoring Factory Default Settings”
on page 94.
CAUTION: If you operate a motor at a frequency higher than the inverter standard
default setting (50Hz/60Hz), be sure to check the motor and machine specifications with
the respective manufacturer. Only operate the motor at elevated frequencies after getting
their approval. Otherwise, there is the danger of equipment damage.
Setting the Motor Base Frequency – The motor is designed to operate at a specific AC
frequency. Most commercial motors are designed for 50/60 Hz operation. First, check
the motor specifications. Then follow the steps in the table below to verify the setting or
correct for your motor. DO NOT set it for greater than 50/60 Hz unless the motor
manufacturer specifically approves operation at the higher frequency.

L100DN Inverter
Set the Output Frequency – Note that the standard L100 Series inverter uses parameter
A_01 Frequency Source Setting to select from sources that include a front panel potentiometer and input terminals. In contrast, the L100DN DeviceNet inverter is optimized for
network control and does not have these two alternate frequency sources. Therefore, the
L100DN does not need (or have) parameter A_01. The default frequency source for the
L100DN is setting F_01 Output Frequency Setting. The frequency setting works in the
following way:
• Operator (local) Control – When using the inverter’s front panel Run and Stop keys to
control the motor, the inverter uses parameter F_01 Output Frequency Setting.
• Network Control – When the inverter is under network control, Run and Stop
commands typically arrive via the network. In this case, you have the additional
option of using the inverter’s parameters (includes F_01 Output Frequency Setting), or
the network host device can send the output frequency setting via the network upon
each network scan. More details are in “Network Control and Monitoring” on
page 39.
This step in the powerup test will set F_01 Output Frequency Setting to 15Hz.
CAUTION: Be sure to set F_01 Output Frequency Setting to a safe value for your motor

Inverter Mounting and Installation
Monitoring Parameters with the Display
After using the keypad for parameter editing, it’s a good
idea to switch the inverter from Program Mode to
Monitor Mode and close the panel door (puts the keys
for parameter editing out of sight). This will also turn
out the PRG LED, and the Hertz or Ampere LED
indicates the display units.
For the powerup test, monitor the motor speed indirectly
by viewing the inverter’s output frequency. The output frequency must not be confused with base frequency
(50/60 Hz) of the motor, or the carrier frequency (switching frequency of the inverter, in
the kHz range). The monitoring functions are in the “D” list, located near the top left of
the “Keypad Navigational Map” on page 20.

Running the Motor
If you have programmed all the parameters up to this point, you’re ready to run the
motor! First, review this checklist:
1. DO NOT connect the inverter to the DeviceNet network or supply +24V network
power yet.
2. Verify the Power LED and Module Status (MS) LEDs are ON (green, not flashing). If
not, check the power connections.
3. Verify the Run Key Enable LED is ON. If not, review the programming steps to find
the problem.
4. Verify the PRG LED is OFF. If it is ON, review the instructions above.

5. Make sure the motor is disconnected from any mechanical load.
6. Now, press the RUN key on the keypad. The RUN LED will turn ON.
7. The motor should accelerate to 15.0 Hz, and the display will indicate “15.0.”
8. Press the STOP key to stop the motor rotation.
Powerup Test Observations and Summary
Reading this section will help you make some useful observations when first running the
motor.
Error Codes – If the inverter displays an error code (format is “E x x”), see Chapter 6 in
the L100 instruction manual for instructions on how to interpret and clear the error.
Acceleration and Deceleration - The L100DN inverter has programmable acceleration
and deceleration values. The test procedure left these at the default value, 10 seconds.
You can observe this by setting the potentiometer at about half speed before running the
motor. Then press RUN, and the motor will take 5 seconds to reach a steady speed. Press
the STOP key to see a 5 second deceleration to a stop.
State of Inverter at Stop – If you adjust the motor’s speed to zero, the motor will slow
to a near stop, and the inverter turns the outputs OFF. The high-performance L100DN
can rotate at a very slow speed with high torque output, but not zero (must use servo
systems with position feedback for that feature). This characteristic means you must use
a mechanical brake for some applications.
Interpreting the Display - First, refer to the output frequency display readout. The
maximum frequency setting (parameter A_04) defaults to 50 Hz or 60 Hz (Europe and
United States, respectively) for your application.
L100DN Inverter

Example: Suppose a 4-pole motor is rated for 60 Hz operation, so the inverter is configured to output 60 Hz at full scale. Use the following formula to calculate the RPM.

Frequency120×
---------------------------------------- ---
# of poles

---------------------1800RPM== ==

The theoretical speed for the motor is 1800 RPM (speed of torque vector rotation).
However, the motor cannot generate torque unless its shaft turns at a slightly different
speed. This difference is called slip. So it’s common to see a rated speed of approximately 1750 RPM on a 60 Hz, 4-pole motor. Using a tachometer to measure shaft speed,
you can see the difference between the inverter output frequency and the actual motor
speed. The slip increases slightly as the motor’s load increases. This is why the inverter
output value is called “frequency,” since it is not exactly equal to motor speed. You can
program the inverter to display output frequency in units more directly related to the load
speed by entering a constant (discussed in Chapter 3 in the L100 instruction manual).
Run/Stop Versus Monitor/Program Modes –
The Run LED on the inverter is ON in Run Mode,
and OFF in Stop Mode. The Program LED is ON

when the inverter is in Program Mode, and OFF for
Monitor Mode. All four mode combinations are
possible. The diagram to the right depicts the

FUNC.
NOTE: Some factory automation devices such as PLCs have alternate Run/Program
modes; the device is in either one mode or the other. In the Hitachi inverter, however,
Run Mode alternates with Stop Mode, and Program Mode alternates with Monitor
Mode. This arrangement lets you program some values while the inverter is operating—
providing flexibility for maintenance personnel.

Intelligent Input Summary
Intelligent input terminals for L100DN inverters include the standard L100 input terminals (see Chapter 3 in L100 Inverter Manual), with the following changes:
• Add [STA], [STP], and [F/R] terminals (three-wire interface inputs)
• Add [UP] and [DWN] remote control input terminals
• Add [DNT] terminal (DeviceNet Select)
• Add [OPE] Force Operation from Digital Operator input terminal
• Remove [AT] intelligent input terminals
The added terminals are described in the sections that follow.
Three-wire Interface Operation
The 3-wire interface is an industry standard motor control interface. This function uses
two inputs for momentary contact start/stop control, and a third for selecting forward or
reverse direction. To implement the 3-wire interface, assign 20 [STA] (Start), 21 [STP]
(Stop), and 22 [F/R] (Forward/Reverse) to the three intelligent input terminals. Use
momentary contact for Start and Stop. Use a selector switch such as SPST for the
Forward/Reverse input. Be sure to set the operation command selection A_02=01 for
input terminal control of motor. If you have a motor control interface that needs logiclevel control (rather than momentary pulse control), use the [FW] and [RV] inputs
instead.

• If you do not assign the [F/R] intelligent input
terminal, the three-wire operation will be limited to
the forward direction only.

Operations and Monitoring
Standard 3-wire control – By default, the
L100DN inverter comes with [STP] (Stop
Motor) assigned to terminal [2]. The Stop
command causes the motor to decelerate to
a stop when the inverter is in Run Mode.
Example (default input configuration shown—
see Chapter 3 in L100 Instruction Manual):
STP
123L
P24
When the inverter is controlled via keypad,
an operator will normally use the Stop/
Reset key on the front panel.
The diagram below shows the use of 3-wire control. STA (Start Motor) is an edge-sensitive input; an OFF-to-ON transition gives the Start command. The control of direction is
level-sensitive, and the direction may be changed at any time. STP (Stop Motor) is also a
level-sensitive input, and the Stop signal has priority over the Start signal.

L100DN Inverter
Use with DeviceNet operation – When the L100DN inverter is under network control,
Run and Stop commands will typically arrive via the DeviceNet network. However, a
network communications interruption is possible at any time. So for safety reasons, it is
important to provide a dedicated Stop signal input as shown below.

In the graph below, the network FWD command places the inverter in Run mode. While

active. The FW command must turn OFF and ON again to resume motor operation.

Operations and Monitoring
DeviceNet Select
You can configure an intelligent input as [DNT] DeviceNet Select. It is not necessary to
assign an input terminal as [DNT] in order to control or monitor the inverter via the
DeviceNet network. Rather, the [DNT] input provides a way for an external control
system to selectively force the inverter to ignore DeviceNet commands and use only its
internal parameters and intelligent inputs for operation.
DeviceNet Control parameter P_43, DeviceNet Enable, serves a similar function—but it
is typically updated via the DeviceNet network. These two methods control essentially
the same thing, so it not meaningful to use both P_43 DeviceNet Enable and a [DNT]
input at the same time. If [DNT] is assigned to an input terminal, parameter P_43 is
ignored.

DeviceNet host computer can still monitor inverter
data via polled I/O, and it can still use Explicit
Messaging to individually change inverter parameters.
See I/O specs in the L100 Instruction Manual
• If you do not assign an input terminal as [DNT],
then parameter P_43 DeviceNet Enable is the sole
method of enabling/disabling control via the
DeviceNet network.
For more information on DeviceNet network configuration, see “Step 2 – Connect
Network Devices” on page 43.
Remote Control Up and Down Functions
The [UP] [DWN] terminal functions can adjust the output frequency for remote control
while the motor is running. The acceleration time and deceleration time used with this
function is the same as for normal operation ACC1 and DEC1. The input terminals
operate as follows:
• Acceleration - When the [UP] contact is turned ON, the output frequency accelerates
from the current value. When it is turned OFF, the output frequency maintains its
current value.
• Deceleration - When the [DWN] contact is turned ON, the output frequency decelerates from the current value. When it is turned OFF, the output frequency maintains its
current value.
In the graph below, the [UP] and [DWN] terminals activate while the Run command
remains ON. The output frequency responds to the [UP] and [DWN] commands.

Intelligent Output Summary
Intelligent output terminals for L100DN inverters include the standard L100 output
terminals (see Chapter 3 in L100 Inverter Manual), with the following changes:
DeviceNet is a communications network typically used in factory automation applications. It is a specific implementation of a Controller Area Network (CAN), first developed for the automotive market. IC manufacturers produce CAN ICs by the millions, so
they are low-cost and reliable. DeviceNet adapts this technology for industrial control. It
allows a programmable logic controller (PLC) or other host computer to control up to 63
field devices such as relays, solenoids, and motor drives such as Hitachi’s DN Series
inverters. DeviceNet has several advantages which have helped make it a popular choice
for various applications. The advantages include:
• Physical layout – main trunk line with individual drop lines
• Reduced wiring costs – uses a 5-wire cable; communications and device power are in
the same cable (power devices such as motor drives still require a main power source)
• Devices may be connected or disconnected without powering down the network (if
daisy-chained)

listed with the ODVA. This ensure compatibility with a wide range of devices from
vendors making thousands of DeviceNet compatible industrial products. This also helps
to connect those same devices over long distances in the factory.

Network Control and Monitoring
Inverter Networking Overview
The L100DN DeviceNet Series inverters can operate under local control (via operator
input via the keypad or via input terminal signals). This control method was covered in
the previous section, “Operations and Monitoring,” and also in the L100 inverter
manual’s Chapter 4, also named “Operations and Monitoring.”
The “Network Control and Monitoring” section will first show you how to connect the
inverter to a DeviceNet network. Next, you will learn how to monitor and control the
inverter from the network master (host computer). These instructions are presented in a
series of steps, with each one preparing your application for the next one. Therefore, be
sure not to skip any steps in this section.
NOTE: Be sure to install the inverter and perform the powerup test described in the
“Inverter Mounting and Installation” on page 9 before attempting network operation.
The step to DeviceNet network control and monitoring are:
1. Design your network layout
2. Connect network devices
a. Add network termination
b. Add network power
3. Prepare network host computer
4. Prepare inverter for network
5. Understand the inverter’s I/O structure
a. Polled I/O
b. Explicit messaging
6. Monitor test – verify network host can monitor inverter
7. Control test – verify network host can control inverter
8. Use DeviceNet Explicit Messaging
9. Create a host computer control program
Note that the test to monitor the inverter from the network occurs before the test to
control the inverter via the network. The setup for monitoring is more simple, and helps
prepare the devices for the control step.
Step 1 – Design Your DeviceNet Network Layout
Your DeviceNet network layout will be determined by several factors, including the
physical machine or plant layout. The network must have one network master, or host
computer such as a PLC or control PC. The L100DN Series inverter is a DeviceNet
slave. The network can have up to 63 slaves which can include inverter(s), sensors,
actuators, or other intelligent devices.

The network diagram above shows a network master (host computer), and four slave
devices. Each device constitutes a “node,” and each node must have a unique address.
The address is also called the MAC ID (Media Access Control Identification). As shown
in the diagram, the node addresses do not have to occur in a particular sequence in the
physical layout.
Showing node connections now in greater detail, the connection to each device in the
middle of the network may be a daisy-chain connection or a drop connection. The differ-
ence is that a daisy-chain connection enters and exits right at the connector, while a drop
connection inserts an extra segment just for the device. The device at each end of the
physical network must include a termination resistor. The host computer and the inverter
may be in the middle or at the ends of the network.

Step 2 – Connect Network Devices
A DeviceNet node connects to the network with five electrical connections. The diagram
below shows the inverter connection as an example. The cable uses two twisted pairs
with a shield. One twisted pair is for data, and the other is for +24V power. The color
code shown is standard for DeviceNet.

The diagram below shows L100DN inverters connected to a DeviceNet network. Each
connection is called a node, and the L100DN connects to the network via the 5-pin,
color-coded Phoenix connector on the front panel as shown.
Add network termination – A termination resistor (121Ω nominal) is required at each
physical end of a DeviceNet network (segment) as shown in the diagram below. Each
device does not typically have an internal termination resistor, as several such devices
together would overload a network. The terminations provides signal integrity and noise
immunity. Therefore, add two resistors as close to the endpoint connectors as possible.

TIP: To simplify configuration and startup, we recommend starting with just the
network host (PLC or computer) and the inverter. It is easier to resolve addressing or
other conflicts with fewer devices. With network wiring for just two devices, you will
need a termination resistor at both devices. After establishing network communications
with the inverter, you can add other devices individually with a minimum of problems.
Remember to maintain network termination at the endpoints at all times.

Network Control and Monitoring
Add network power – Many devices such as sensors and relays can be powered directly
from the network. However, inverters generally use much more power and a higher input
voltage than a network could provide. As demonstrated by the installation powerup test,
L100DN Series inverters need only the AC input power for stand-alone operation. For
network monitoring or control, you must also supply external +24V network power to
the DeviceNet connector. The inverter has internal optical isolation from the network,
and draws negligible network power as a result. DeviceNet specifications support up to
8A per network segment.
NOTE: Class II NEC Code limits the current for any network segment to 4A. DeviceNet
thick type cable is limited to 8A; thin type cable is limited to 3A.
Add a +24VDC supply to the network as shown below. It is not necessary to power it for
this step; later steps will provide powerup instructions..

Using the auxiliary network power connector provides flexibility and convenience in
wiring your application. Be sure to read the following points to avoid any problems:
• Make sure the polarity of the power supply connection is correct. If in doubt, check
continuity between the two connectors to ensure the polarity is maintained.
• The power supply must provide proper output current limit and fusing for the network
device load.
• Remember that you must open the front door panel of the inverter to connect or
disconnect wiring to the auxiliary network power connector. If power has been
connected, wait five minutes after powerdown and verify the Power LED is OFF
before opening the inverter front door panel.

Network Control and Monitoring
Step 3 – Prepare Network Host Computer for Network
This step presumes that you have already connected your network host device (PLC or
computer) to the DeviceNet network. If using a PC, the addition of a DeviceNet scanner
card is usually required.
EDS file
InverterMaster (network host)
Addr=?
(you select)
Load EDS file – The I/O structure of smart field devices such as inverters are unique.
Consequently, you must provide a network host computer with the I/O image of smart
devices on the network. DeviceNet standards provide for a quick way to equip host
computers with device-specific I/O images. The data is contained in an EDS file
(Electronic Data Sheet). Manufacturers develop EDS files for their DeviceNetcompatible products, providing them to the DeviceNet standards organization. The
ODVA (Open DeviceNet Vendors Association) maintains the files for download. Do the
following steps:
• Visit the website at http://www.odva.org
• Navigate to the Downloads area, and then to EDS files.
• From the EDS files, select “Hitachi” as the manufacturer.
• Download the file that matches your inverter’s version (L100DN2, for example)
• Then load or place the EDS file in your network host device in the location (directory)
it requires for use in network device scanning. Refer to the documentation of your host
device for this information.
Set node address of host – If you have not already done so, set the node address (the
MAC ID). It must be different from the inverter’s node address. Refer to the documentation of your host device for the address setting procedure. We recommend not using
“00,” since that is the default of many other devices.
Addr=63
(default)
Set baud rate of host – The host computer’s baud rate and the inverter’s baud rate must
match in order for them to communicate. We recommend using the lowest baud rate
(125 kbaud) to get the network up and running. The default baud rate of the inverter is
125 kbaud.
Step 4 – Prepare Inverter for Network
Verify that the inverter’s DeviceNet parameters are set as directed.
• P_41 baud rate setting must be the same as your network host computer.
• P_42 MAC ID setting must be different from your network host computer.
• P_43 DeviceNet enable must be set = 1 (required by subsequent steps in example).
• P_44 and P_45 are recommended to remain at the default settings.
• P_46 and P_47 must be set to the default values (required by subsequent steps).
• P 48 selects the inverter’s action if the inverter detects network idle (leave at default).
• P 49 allows the host computer to command motor in output freq. (set = 0) or by motor
speed in RPM (set = to number of poles). Leave at default (set = 0) for this example.

Network Control and Monitoring
Step 5 – Understand the Inverter’s I/O Structure
In DeviceNet terminology, I/O devices can either produce or consume data. An input
point (or data byte or word) produces data, while an output point (or data byte or word)
consumes data. The DeviceNet standard also provides for various ways the network
master accesses I/O, either more or less frequently, according to certain criteria. The
main benefit of having this variety is to let you conserve network bandwidth by using it
where the application most needs it. DeviceNet categorizes I/O communication
exchanges into several types listed below.
Polled I/O (supported in L100DN) – The Poll command initiated by the master
contains output data. When the slave (inverter) is polled, it automatically returns input
data to the master, which also serves as an acknowledgement. The main advantage of
Polled I/O is that a fixed (predetermined) set of I/O data can be exchanged upon each
network scan. There is no need to specify each bit or word of the request for output and
input. The Run/Stop commands and output frequency command are included in the
polled I/O set for the inverter.
Bit Strobe, Cyclic, and Change-of-State(not supported in L100DN) – These master
commands are oriented to simpler I/O devices, time-based updates, or value-change
updates. More suited to simple or analog applications such as data logging, these
network master commands are not supported by L100DN inverters.
Explicit Messaging (supported in L100DN) – The Explicit Messaging mechanism
goes beyond the four standard scan mechanisms listed above. A master can use an
Explicit Message request to Get (read) or Set (write) specific data in a device such as the
inverter. In that specific request, the master provides the complete network address to the
device and the register within that device. The inverter has many parameters, but most of
them need accessed rarely via the network. Thus, the inverter supports explicit messaging access to all of its parameter values.
The timing diagram below shows a simplified network activity timing diagram. The poll
command and response occur at the regular interval of the master’s scan time. This
represents the polled I/O data (includes Run/Stop commands, inverter’s output frequency
and accel / decel times). One explicit message event occurs in the available “quiet” time
within the network activity. This represents the master doing a single access of a specific
inverter parameter (suited for rarely accessed parameters such as torque boost, etc.).

Polled I/O Data Map, Inverter Outputs – The polled I/O for the inverter maps to four
words (16 bits each) input data, and four words output data. This represents a small
portion of the inverter’s parameters and commands—just those required to manage
motor operation in real time. Some data words contain discrete (individual) bits (used as
flags), while others words contain values (used as scalar numbers). When the network is
active, polled I/O data is automatically updated on each network scan.

Stop/Reset command to clear the trip is ignored in this state.
10The inverter is in a trip condition.
11An under-voltage condition exists at the inverter power input.
Description
TIP: The next step (Step 6) verifies that the network host can monitor the inverter. The
network host will monitor the inverter’s produced (output) data while the motor is
running. The step shows how to monitor and interpret produced data while the motor is
running in a typical application.
L100DN Inverter
Step 6 – Monitor Test – Verify Network Host Can Monitor Inverter
This step requires that you have completed the previous 5 steps, and that the powerup
test during the installation was successful (see “Running the Motor” on page 24). At this
point in the procedure, the inverter is using front panel keypad inputs for Run/Stop
commands. The DeviceNet host computer can monitor inverter operation without actually controlling the inverter. So, you do not have to change any “P Group” parameters from their defaults to do this network monitoring test.

Inverter Monitoring Sequence – Follow these steps to monitor inverter operation via
the DeviceNet network. In this sequence, you will control the inverter from its keypad,
but monitor operation from the network host computer.
a. Begin with power off to the network host, the inverter, and the network power.
b. Turn ON the +24VDC network power.
c. Turn ON power to the host computer and the inverter. The status LEDs will
indicate: MS LED = Green, and the NS LED = OFF.
d. Confirm that the Run Key Enable LED is ON. It is directly above the Run key. If
it is OFF, then be sure that A_02 = 02.
e. On the host computer, start the application that connects it to the network.
f. Set the host application to scan the DeviceNet network. (Do any configuration
required to let the host “see” the inverter on the network.) You may notice that the
inverter’s NS LED = Flashing Green during network startup.
NOTE: If the inverter detects another device on the network has the same MAC ID, the
inverter will display the MAC ID code on the front panel display and the inverter is in
Stop Mode. When in Run Mode (or after any key is pressed), the display reverts to the
normal indications.
g. Verify that the inverter’s MS LED = Green, and now the NS LED = Green.
NOTE: If the NS LED = OFF, the network is disconnected. Check the cable, and also
check the host application software settings. If the NS LED = Flashing Green, the
network is connected, but idle. Start the host network scan to cause NS LED = Green. If
Red or Flashing Red, use the Status LED table on the previous page to troubleshoot.
h. Confirm that the host computer can see the inverter’s polled I/O. You will be
monitoring the inverter’s produced (output) I/O data, which are inputs to the host
computer. At this point, all data words = 0000h as shown below.

can communicate with another known working device (provided its MAC ID is unique).
i. Provided that the host computer finds the inverter’s produced I/O, press the Run
key on the inverter keypad. The motor should run in the same way it did for the
powerup test during the inverter installation.

Using the Polled I/O Data Map for produced (output) data given in Step 5, you
can interpret the data sent to the host computer. For scalar values such as
frequency and current, a scale factor of 1, 10, 100, or 1000 applies. The “Network
Register Map” on page 78 lists the inverters parameters and the scale factor used
to get/set the parameter value over the network. To get a parameter’s actual value,
divide the value sent by the inverter (in decimal form) by the scale factor.

• Word 1 – The decimal value “1500” for output frequency corresponds to 15.00Hz
(D_01 reading) when the scale factor of 100 is applied. Recall that the powerup

• Word 2 – The decimal value of “11” for output current corresponds to 1.1A (D_02
reading) when the scale factor of 10 is applied. This value represents a small
inverter and motor size; your reading may differ.
• Word 3 – The decimal value of “0” for trip code (D_08 reading) corresponds to
“no trip” status.
NOTE: When a trip event occurs, the polled I/O will indicate it by Trip Bit = 1 in
Word 0 and the actual Trip Code in Word 3. When the trip condition is cleared (Stop/
Reset key), then the Trip bit = 0, but the Trip Code in Word 3 remains. To clear it also,
you must clear the inverter’s trip history. For more information, see “Restoring Factory
Default Settings” on page 94.
k. Press the Stop/Reset key on the inverter. This will cause the motor to stop, and the
Polled I/O (produced data) shown above will return to 0 values.
l. To complete this monitoring sequence, stop the host computer’s DeviceNet scan.

Network Control and Monitoring
Step 7 – Control Test – Verify Network Host Can Control Inverter
If your network host computer successfully monitored the inverter’s operation in Step 6,
then achieving control capability from the network host in this step will be easy. First, it
is important to know how to change inverter control between local (keypad) control and
network control. Then you will be ready to control the inverter from the network.
Parameter Changes and Network Errors – Note that changing “P Group” DeviceNet
parameter values in the inverter causes the inverter to reset and initialize its network
operations. If the DeviceNet host computer is scanning at that moment, the inverter will
cause a network time-out error when it initializes. So, you can avoid these network errors
by stopping the network scan activity before changing “P Group” parameter values.
Configuring for Network Control – The configuration for network control depends on
several factors. Understanding the principles below will help simplify how network
control works:
• “Local control” refers to the inverter accepting Run/Stop commands from either its
keypad or input terminals [FW] or [RV], if configured. “Network control” refers to a
host computer remotely sending Run/Stop commands via a DeviceNet connection.
• A DeviceNet setting or signal at the inverter enables or permits network control. This
means that an operator or control system at the inverter can, at any time, take back
control of the inverter from a network host by disabling DeviceNet control.
• The inverter uses P_43 DeviceNet Control Enable for the primary method of control
selection. By default, P_43 = 1 (set to enable network control).
• Alternatively, you can assign the intelligent input terminal [DNT] Select DeviceNet.
Its ON/OFF states work the same way as P_43 settings. Note that when [DNT] is
assigned to an input terminal, the inverter ignores the P_43 setting.
The table below summarizes these network control principles.

L100DN Inverter
When the inverter has enabled DeviceNet control via P_43 or a [DNT] terminal input
signal, the DeviceNet host may control the inverter. However, the host computer must
also set bit(s) in the polled I/O that is input data (consumed I/O) to the inverter. The bit
names and definitions are:
• Network Control – When the Network Control bit = 1, the host computer indicates
that it wants to control the inverter. If the inverter setting P_43 or [DNT] has enabled
control, then the host computer can give FW Run and RV Run commands.
• Network Reference – Independent of network control, the host computer can supply
the following parameter values for real-time motor control:
• Output frequency – An alternate source for F_01 Output Frequency Setting
• Acceleration time – An alternate source for F_02 Acceleration Time Setting
• Deceleration time – An alternate source for F_03 Deceleration Time Setting
When the Network Reference bit = 1, the host computer indicates that it wants to
supply the output frequency and accel/decel setting to the inverter. If the inverter
setting P_43 or [DNT] has enabled network control, the inverter will use the alternate
values via DeviceNet. This applies independently of the Network Control bit setting.

Note 1:Logic above requires inverter’s P_43 or [DNT] to enable DeviceNet control.
Typically a network host computer needs to have control of Run/Stop, speed, accel, and
decel. This corresponds to No. 3 above, where both Network Control and Network
Reference bits are set = 1. If the inverter needs temporary local control, you can either:
• Turn OFF the Network Control bit and/or Network Reference bit at the network host.
Note that if you turn OFF only one of the two bits, the Run/Stop control comes from
one device and the speed / accel / decel values comes from the other device. Or,
• Use the inverter’s DeviceNet enable settings P_43 or the input terminal [DNT]
(whichever is in effect) to temporarily disable DeviceNet control. This will cause the
inverter to have local control of Run/Stop and the speed / accel / decel settings.
The DeviceNet network may remain online (scanning) without errors while changing the
control between local or network, or changing the speed / accel / decel source.

Network Control and Monitoring
Polled I/O Data Map, Inverter Inputs – The polled I/O for the inverter maps to four
words (16 bits each) input data, and four words output data. In this section, we are
concerned with the four words the host computer uses to control the inverter.
The following Polled I/O table shows how the host computer’s control bits and reference
data (output freq. / accel / decel) are organized. Word 0 (lower byte) contains discrete
(individual) bits (used as flags). Data words 1, 2, and 3 contain values (used as scalar
numbers). When the network is active, polled I/O data is automatically updated on each
network scan.

Inverter Control Sequence 1 – In this first sequence, the DeviceNet host computer will
control the inverter (Run/Stop), but the inverter will use its internal parameters for output
frequency / accel / decel (F_01, F_02, and F_03). This sequence assumes that you have
successfully completed the Monitoring Sequence in Step 6.
a. Confirm that the DeviceNet network is online, and the host computer is scanning
the network.
b. Confirm that the Run Key Enable LED is still ON. It is directly above the Run
key. If it is OFF, then be sure to set A_02 = 02. (This sequence will not make use
of the Run key, but it will ask you to observe the Run Key Enable LED.)
c. Confirm that the motor is stopped.
d. Refer to the control byte in Word 0 as shown below. With the host computer, set
the Network Control bit (bit 5) = 1. As you do this, notice that the Run Key
Enable LED on the inverter turns OFF. This indicates that the inverter has
switched its control source from local to network control.

The second control sequence is complete. The host computer controlled the inverter with
Run/Stop (both directions), and also supplied the profile parameter values for output
frequency / accel / decel.
WARNING: Your application may require stopping the motor suddenly, in certain
conditions, to avoid injury to personnel or equipment damage. If so, be sure to configure
the [STP] input terminal on the inverter, described in “Three-wire Interface Operation”
on page 33. This will provide a way for the control environment at the inverter to stop
the motor, should the host computer fail to turn the motor OFF when required.

Network Control and Monitoring
Host Output Data Notes – The following list provides further details on how the
inverter responds to the polled I/O data from the host computer.
• Out-of-range data will be ignored.
• When the inverter is in Run Mode (FW Run or RV Run), any change to the Net
Control bit or the Net Reference bit will be ignored.
• When an intelligent input terminal [CF1], [CF2], [CF3], [CF4], [JG], or [2CH] turns
ON, the inverter performs the related function with priority.
• If the inverter reset is ON at powerup, a communication time-out error will occur at
the master. In this case, the master will need to re-establish communications.
• When an inverter has a power cycle or reset, the DeviceNet master may request to start
or resume motor rotation. If the master does not specify the accel or decel times (in the
polled I/O, the inverter will use the F_02 and F_03 values.
Step 8 – Use DeviceNet Explicit Messaging
The control sequences in Step 7 showed how the network host computer can control the
inverter via polled I/O. While polled I/O data is continuously supplied (on each network
scan), it contains only a small set of control bits and values for the main running profile.
In addition, the inverter provides a direct way host computer to access individual inverter
parameters. In DeviceNet terminology, it is called explicit messaging.
The DeviceNet standards provide for a way to address individual devices on the network
(nodes), and data (attributes) within each device. A complete address consists of four
numbers: the Node Address (MAC ID), the Object Class Identifier, the Instance Number,
and the Attribute Number. An explicit message connection between two devices uses
these four numbers to identify and transfer data on a DeviceNet network. The four
address components and their ranges are shown in the following table:
L100DN Inverter
61
Address
Component
Node063
Class165535
Instance065535
Attribute1255
A particular inverter on the network has a specific node address (default = 63). To access
a particular parameter in that inverter, the host computer uses the class, instance, and
attribute numbers together. The address ranges indicated in the table above could access
any one of thousands of values within a device, if needed. In DeviceNet terminology, a
read access is called get, and a write access is called a set.
The assignment of DeviceNet explicit messaging addresses to inverters is somewhat
arbitrary. In this step we consider an example parameter, but the complete set for the
L100DN Series inverter is listed in the “Network Register Map” on page 78. The table
excerpt below shows parameter F_01 and its network address for explicit messaging.

When you construct a get attribute or set attribute request, refer to the Class ID in the
table title bar (100), and the Inst, Attr, and Size columns (1, 159, 2).
62
Network Control and Monitoring
A get attribute request from the host computer and the inverter’s response is shown in
the diagram below.
To perform the network request for parameter F_01 in the inverter, do the following:
a. Verify that your DeviceNet is running and the host computer is scanning.
b. In your host computer application, locate the mechanism for explicit messaging.
Refer to your host computer documentation if necessary.
c. Enter the node, class, Instance, attribute and size numbers in the above diagram.
d. Set the preferred display data format (hex or decimal) of the response (if your
host application provides this.
e. Have the host computer send the explicit message.
f. Verify the inverter’s response is 5DCh, or 1500 decimal. If not, check the values
in the get attribute request, and check the present value of parameter F_01 at the
inverter.
g. Apply the scale factor in the Network Register Map table. For F_01, divide by
100, so “1500” becomes 15.00Hz.
A set attribute request works similarly, but you must choose a parameter that permits a
set operation. refer to the right-most column of the table for Get/Set permissions.
Addr = 63
Step 9 – Create a Host Computer Control Program
This section will provide an outline for constructing an example program for your host
computer control application. The example will use a simple forward and reverse
rotation for the velocity profile. Control programs for DeviceNet exist in a variety of
languages (relay ladder logic, flow charts, high-level language, etc.). Therefore, the
example program will be generic. It will use polled I/O for sending the basic commands
and to get parameters, but your program could also use explicit messaging to access any
inverter parameter.
The following diagram shows the polled I/O data transmitted on a single network scan.
At the moment of the scan, the inverter output is running the motor in the forward direction at 20.00Hz. The acceleration and deceleration times are set to 10.0 seconds.

The figure below shows the velocity profile for the example program. It consists of a
forward rotation followed by a reverse rotation. The program will send the commands
and parameter values to set the speed and accel/decel values.

Command Bit Sequencing – The order of 0-to-1 transitions of the host computer’s
Word 0 command bits is important. First, set the Network Control bit (bit 5) and/or the
Network Reference bit (bit 6) as needed. Then you can set the FW Run or RV Run bit to
rotate the motor. If either Run bit is set = 1 before the Network Control bit is set = 1, the
inverter will ignore the request.
64
Network Control and Monitoring
Example Program Sequence – The following host computer example program uses a
flowchart to send commands and values to the inverter (host output, 4 words). The
example HMI (Human-Machine Interface) data display shows the host monitoring the
inverter data (host input, 4 words). All number values are in decimal format.
Example Program

Polled I/O Configurations
L100DN inverters offer three host output and host input polled I/O data configurations.
These correspond to P_46 / P_47 = 20 / 70, 21 / 71, or 100 / 101. Each configuration
differs in its use of up to 4 output or 4 input words (other combinations can cause
network errors.) The DeviceNet networking example in the previous steps used the
default polled I/O configuration (P_46 = 100 and P_47 = 101). This section describes
each available polled I/O configuration

time is set by parameter B_03.
9The inverter is in a trip condition, and is storing the trip history data to EEPROM. A
Stop/Reset command to clear the trip is ignored in this state.
10The inverter is in a trip condition.
11An under-voltage condition exists at the inverter power input.

Troubleshooting and Maintenance
Troubleshooting and Maintenance
This section describes L100DN Series error codes corresponding to Chapter 6,
“Troubleshooting and Maintenance,” in the L100 Inverter Instruction Manual.
Error Codes and Notes
L100DN Series inverters have the additional error code listed below.
Error
Code
E60
A DeviceNet communication error will result in an inverter trip with error code 60, as
well as other actions that you can specify. The table below lists the DeviceNet fault types
detected and the inverter actions.
Bus-OFF detection *1P_45 setting (*2), five options:

Communication error
DeviceNet Error TypeInverter Action
NameCause(s)
• The DeviceNet cable may be disconnected or have
an open wire, short, etc.
• The communication error may be due to the
external device. Check whether the interruption is
for more than 3 seconds before resetting the error.
If so, the watchdog timer in the inverter is timing
out due to no response from the external device.

01 .. Decelerate and trip
02 .. Hold last speed
03 .. Free-run stop
04 .. Decelerate and stop
(same as above)
DeviceNet connection time-out *4Decelerate and trip
Connection released *5Decelerate and trip
Note 1:The inverter does not support DeviceNet requests during a communication
fault. To clear a Bus-OFF error, power cycle the inverter or reset it via [RS].
Note 2:The P_45 setting only applies to the inverter’s DeviceNet watchdog timer
time-out, not a connection time-out or a host connection release event.
Note 3:The inverter’s DeviceNet watchdog timer is active whenever the inverter is in
Run Mode and its DeviceNet connection is enabled. (The DeviceNet connection may be enabled either by P_43 = 1 or when the signal is ON at the intelligent input terminal [DNT], if assigned. [DNT] input has priority over P_43.)
Note 4:The DeviceNet connection time-out refers to the time-out within the
DeviceNet Connection Object, per the DeviceNet specifications. In if Run
Mode when the time-out occurs, the inverter decelerates the motor to a stop.
Note 5:The host computer can release the connection to the inverter via the standard
service release mechanism. In if Run Mode when the time-out occurs, the
inverter decelerates the motor to a stop.
Appendix A:
DeviceNet Object Lists
This appendix contains DeviceNet Object Lists for the inverter to comply with
DeviceNet specifications. Some host computer applications automatically handle the
low-level details of object list attributes. So, you may or may not need this information
when developing your host application program.

Network Register Map
The following tables list the DeviceNet explicit addressing to access inverter parameters.
Each parameters address consists of Class ID, Instance, and Attribute. The host will also
need to use the Size (number of bytes) in the request. Most of the parameters provide
both Get and Set access (denoted by “G/S”) in the tables).
The inverter returns scalar values in decimal format. The scale factors are presented in
the Scaling column. To get a parameter’s actual value, the host computer will need to
divide the data by the scale factor (unless it is “1”). The result will be a decimal number
with an integer part and a decimal (fractional) part.

Drive Parameter Settings Tables
Introduction
This section lists the user-programmable parameters for the L100DN series inverters and
the default values, corresponding to Appendix B, “Drive Parameter Settings Tables,” in
the L100 Inverter Instruction Manual. The right-most column of the tables is blank, so
you can record values you have changed from the default. This involves just a few
parameters for most applications. This section presents the parameters in a format
oriented toward the keypad on the inverter.
Parameter Settings for Keypad Entry
L100 series inverters provide many functions and parameters that can be configured by
the user. We recommend that you record all parameters that have been edited, in order to
help in troubleshooting or recovery from a loss of parameter data.

L100DN Inverter
NOTE: L100DN inverters cannot connect to a remote operator panel. For initialization,
use the inverter’s front panel keypad or use the network host (see below).
DeviceNet Method – The network host computer can restore (initialize) all inverter
parameters to factory default settings. The host will use a series of explicit message
requests. The explicit messages will set parameters B_84 and B_85 in the same way as
the keypad method prepares for initialization. Then, a specific “Reset” explicit message
service completes the sequence. Just follow these steps:
1. Set B_84 according to whether you want to initialize all parameters or clear the trip
history. Use the explicit message address for B_84 given in the table below.
2. Set B_85 for the country of initialization (usually this setting is already correct). Use
the explicit message address for B_85 given in the table below.
3. Use the Reset service listed below for Class ID 100 to perform the unitization. The
parameters in Class IDs of 100, 101, 103, 105, and 109 are initialized.
NOTE: Executing the host Reset service causes the inverter to stop network communications (similar to power-on reset). Therefore, the network master will detect a time-out
error. It cannot re-connect to the inverter until the initialization is complete (3–4 sec.)
