HVFDCABLE
PC-CONNECTION ACCESSORIES FOR SMARTVFD COMPACT, HVAC, & BYPASS
INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS
INTRODUCTION
The HVFDCDMCA, HVFDCDMCAKIT, and HVFDCABLE
accessories enable Honeywell SmartVFD products to be
connected with the USB port of your PC. Such connections
make it possible to use Honeywell SmartVFD
commissioning and software download PC-tools available
free of charge at: Customer.honeywell.com/vfd, then select
"Software Downloads"
HVFDCDMCA, HVFDCABLE, and HVFDCDMCAKIT
(includes both the cable and the MCA) are intended for
connecting the SmartVFD COMPACT to the USB port of
your PC. It can also be used for copying parameters
between two similar COMPACT VFDs.
The HVFDCABLE can be used by the SmartVFD HVAC and
BYPASS products for a direct USB connection between
your PC and VFD without any additional adapters.
FEATURES
• USB connection to PC
• Parameter copy with HVFDCDMCA for SmartVFD
COMPACT (NOTE! Parameter sets can be copied
only between SmartVFD Compact VFDs of the exact
same type)
