Configuring the Serial Converter
This chapter provides information about configuring the serial
converter.
For a list of parameters, refer to Appendix B, Serial Converter
Parameters. For definitions of terms in this chapter, refer to the
Glossary.
4.1
Configuration Tools
The serial converter stores parameters and other information in its
own non-volatile storage (NVS). You must, therefore, access the
serial converter to view and edit its parameters. Table 4.1 lists tools
that you can use to access the serial converter and edit its
parameters.
4.2
Using the LCD OIM to Configure the
Serial Converter
If you connect to a SP600 drive and it has an LCD OIM (Operator
Interface Module), you can use the OIM to access and edit
parameters in the serial converter as shown in figure 4.1. For
additional OIM information, refer to your SP600 AC Drive User
Manual.
