INTRODUCTION The Portable Control/Display Unit (PCDU)
is an optional device that connects into a
drive and allows easy interface between the
operator and the drive for setting
parameters, viewing drive data, logging
faults, and/or troubleshooting. The PCDU
has a 30 button membrane-type keypad and
a 2 line, 16 character alphanumeric
display. The software in the drive is
designed to make it unnecessary to have
one PCDU for each drive in a system,
although this may be desirable. The PCDU
may be connected into and removed from
any drive while the drive is running
without loss of drive data. Some
diagnostics require the use of the PCDU
since it offers greater flexibility.
