SERIAL COMMUNICATIONS
The ML-Drive can interface with a host computer through a RS485 Serial
Communications Interface. This interface allows the host computer to perform remote
Control Parameter entry, status or performance monitoring, and remote control of the
ML-Drive. Refer to
Using Serial Communications, page 3-50, in this section.
If you are using the M-Host software, your communications network is user ready and
does not require any software programming. M–Host software is available through your
distributor. If you are designing your own software, refer to
Communications Software
Design, page 3-52, in this section. Once the software is installed, you are ready to
establish a link through the Serial Communications Interface.
