Programming the Drive

for Network Communication

This section describes how to configure a VTAC 7 drive for use with an LonWorks
network. The sections that follow describe the VTAC 7 parameters related to
LonWorks network operation. For other drive parameter descriptions, refer to the
VTAC 7 User Manual.

6.1

Setting the Control Source (P.000)

Parameter P.000 (Control Source) selects the source of control information for the
drive (start, jog, direction, etc.). To start and stop the drive over the network,
parameter P.000 must be set to OP. This parameter can be written over the network
only when the drive is stopped.

After parameter P.000 is set to OP, the Remote LED on the keypad should turn on to
show the network is in control of the drive. Note that parameter P.000 does not
prevent the drive from communicating on the network; it only allows the drive to be
controlled and the reference to be supplied from the network.

Parameter P.000 does

not have to be set to OP to modify or read drive parameters. True?

Parameter Range:

LOCL = Local keypad/display
rE = Terminal strip remote inputs
OP = Option port
SErL = Serial port (CS3000 or OIM)

Default Setting:

LOCL

Parameter Type:

Configurable
