1.2.2Installing the Setup Software
To use the VFD Setup Software (FR-SW1-SETUP-WE), the files included in the setup disks must be installed onto
the personal computer.
When using an old version inverter setup software, move the setting file you have created from the default folder
where the file is placed to another folder. Also, be sure to uninstall
setup software.
To install the VFD Setup Software, use the setup program (SETUP.EXE) on the Setup Disk (CD-ROM). The setup
program creates a directory on the specified hard disk and copies the required files.
CAUTION
1. Since the files in the Setup Disk are compressed, the VFD Setup Software will not operate by merely
copying the files. Always use the setup program to install the software.
2. Install the software in accordance with the Windows installation procedure.
3. When installing on Windows 95, be sure to install Microsoft DCOM95 for Windows 95, Version 1.3
before installing setup software. You can download DCOM95 for Windows 95, Version 1.3 from the following website of Microsoft Corporation. Note that URL is subject to variation.
http://www.microsoft.com/com/
4. For uninstallation, use [Uninstall] of the inverter setup software or [Setting] of the [Start] menu-[Add/
Remove Programs Properties] of [Control panel].

2.2.2Communication Settings
The VFD Setup Software uses the serial port of the personal computer to control the inverters through serial
communication. Its communication settings must be the same as those of the inverter. (The initial values of the
setup software have been matched with the factory settings of the inverter.)
When you start this software, the initial screen appears. Pressing the [OK] button displays the system setting
screen. Choosing the [Settings] → [Communication settings] command on the menu bar. The screen then shows
the following dialog box, where various communication settings can be made.

When making communication with the inverters, set a value other than 0 in Pr. 122 "communication
check time interval" on the inverter's operation panel. For the FR-A5NR, set any value other than 0 in Pr.
336 "communication check time interval", and for the FR-S500 series, set any value other than 0 in the
communication parameter n6 (336) "communication check time interval".
(Refer to the inverter instruction manual for the setting method.)
Set the interval at which data is always sent or received to or from the inverter.
It must be set to at least 2 seconds shorter than the communication check time interval setting of the inverter. If
its setting is longer than the communication check time interval setting, the inverter will come to an alarm stop.
CAUTION
The setting of short interrogate time may slow down the response of the menus and buttons on each

2.4.5Trace Oscilloscopes (for FR-V500 (L) series only)
The FR-V500 (L) series allows you to trace various data by setting Pr. 520 to Pr. 536 and Pr. 538.
Using the trace function of the setup software, you can set the parameters on the trace function setting screen and
analyze the traced data. The trace function is available for the FR-V500 (L) series only.
When using the trace function, the trace option unit T-TRC50 need to be fitted to the inverter. Install the trace option
unit T-TRC50 in Slot 1 of the inverter. If you install it in Slot 2 or 3, operation is not performed. The traced data are
stored in the memory of the trace option unit T-TRC50.
<Installation>
(1) Make sure that the input power of the inverter is OFF.
(2) Insert the option unit connector into the connector of the inverter securely. At this time, also insert the option fix-
ing holes securely.
Refer to the following diagram for the position of Slot 1. Push the option unit securely into the option fixing hook.
(3) Fix the two left and right places of the option unit to the inverter securely with the accessory mounting screws. If
the screw holes do not line-up, the connector may not have been inserted securely. Check for insecure insertion.

Choosing the [Test Running] → [Test Running] command from the menu displays the following screen.
CAUTION
This command can be chosen in the online mode only.
Operation procedure
1)Set the station number of the inverter to be run and the operation mode (PU or LNK (Link) operation).
2)Enter the running frequency (running speed for the FR-V500 (L) series) and press the key to confirm.
3)Click the [JOG FWD] (Shift+F5) or [JOG REV] (Shift+F6) button. The motor rotates while the button is being
pressed. The output frequency (speed for the FR-V500 (L) series), output voltage and output current are monitored on the screen.
CAUTION
1. If your inverter is the FR-E500 series, set any value other than "0" in Pr. 146 "frequency setting command selection".
2. When selecting [JOG REV (Shift+F6)] for the FR-S500 series, set "---" in Pr. 63 "STR terminal function
selection". Setting other than "---" does not enable [JOG REV (Shift+F6)].
3. The inverter stops if the F6 key is pressed and then released while the inverter is running with [JOG
FWD (shift+F5)].
Likewise, the inverter also stops if the F5 key is pressed and then released during running with [JOG
REV (shift+F6)].

CAUTION
1. In the offline mode, test running and auto tuning cannot be performed.
2. Before starting test running, check and if necessary adjust the parameters. Not doing so may cause
some machines to perform unexpected operation.
3. Provide safety backup devices such as emergency brakes to ensure that the machinery and equipment are not put in hazardous conditions if the inverters become faulty.

Advanced Function
2.7Advanced Function
2.7.1Machine analyzer (for FR-V500 (L) series only)
Machine analyzer reads and analyzes the torque and speed data available when the inverter oscillates the motor at
random torque for about 0.5 to 4 seconds.
This allows measurement of the response frequency characteristic of speed relative to the motor torque of the
machine so that you can grasp the frequency at which the mechanical system has the resonance point.
CAUTION
1. The machine analyzer function is available for only the system that can perform PLG vector control
with the FR-V500 (L) series.
2. The machine analyzer function is not performed in any of the following cases.
⋅ During inverter operation
⋅ When the second motor is selected (Pr. 450 ≠ "9999")
⋅ When the control mode is other than the PLG vector control mode (Pr. 800 ≠ "0 to 5")

REMARKS
• If a measurement result varies, accurate measurement may not have been made.
• Accurate measurement may not be made in a mechanical system whose oscillation torque is too small or whose friction is
large. In such a case, increase the oscillation torque and restart Machine analyzer.
• If the oscillation torque is too large relative to the load inertia moment, an overcurrent or similar alarm may occur. At that
time, reduce the oscillation torque and restart Machine analyzer.
• Starting oscillation switches to the torque control mode automatically, shifting a position. Before starting operation after
oscillation, therefore, always make a home position return.

REMARKS
In "vertical shaft mode"
⋅ The accuracy of 100Hz or less on the low frequency side may become low.
⋅ Too high setting of the position loop gain (Pr. 422) may lower the measurement accuracy.
CAUTION
When the machine is a vertical shaft, always perform this function in the "vertical shaft mode" since a
drop may occur.

The following screen appears when the "vertical axis mode" is selected.
Clicking the [Cancel] button returns to the Machine analyzer setting screen.
Clicking the [OK] button displays the Machine analyzer operation start screen.
CAUTION
1. When Machine analyzer is executed in the vertical shaft mode, a servo lock is first placed, the "Operation ready 2" signal is then output, and in 0.5 seconds, the motor is started.
2. When an electromagnetic brake is used, assign the "Operation ready 2" signal to any of the output
terminals (DO1 to DO3, ABC) and modify the circuit to open the electromagnetic brake using this signal. If this is not done, a machine drop or an overcurrent or similar alarm may occur. (For details of Pr.

The resonance point (red cursor) and opposite resonance point (yellow cursor) are automatically detected,
but they may not be detected automatically depending on the characteristic. In such a case, move the cursors to the normal positions by directly rewriting the resonance point and opposite resonance point frequencies.
