Written by plc247.com

Hello friends!
In addition to communication control types such as I/O, Analog, most inverters support control by Modbus-RTU communication to help long communication distances and save wires.

Today plc247.com will guide you to use Siemens S7-200 PLC to control Mitsubishi FR-E700 Series inverters through Modbus-RTU protocol in the simplest and easiest way.

Siemens S7-200 & Mitsubishi FR-E700 Wiring Diagram

Below is the RS485 communication connection diagram between Siemens S7-200 PLC and Mitsubishi FR-E700 inverter:

Mitsubishi FR-E700 Modbus Parameters Setting

In order for the Mitsubishi FR E700 inverter to be controlled by Modbus-RTU communication protocol, we need to set the following parameters:

+ Pr117 = 1 (Slave Address)

+ Pr118 = 3 (Baudrate 9600)

+ Pr119 = 0 (8bit, stop bit = 1)

+ Pr120 = 2 (Even)

+ Pr121 = 9999

+ Pr122 = 9999

+ Pr123 = 9999

+ Pr124 = 1

+ Pr340 = 1

+ Pr549 = 1

+ Pr79 = 2 (Last Setting)

Mitsubishi FR-E700 Modbus Registers Address

>>> Frequency Setting Address = 40014 (dec)

>>> VFD Control Address = 40009 (dec)

  • Forward Run >>> Set 40009 = 0000.0000.0000.0010 = 2
  • Reverse Run >>> Set 40009 = 0000.0000.0000.0100 = 4
  • Stop command >>> Set 40009 = 0000.0000.0000.0000 = 0

+ Output Frequency Address = 40201 (dec)

+ Output Current Address = 40202 (dec)

+ Output Voltage Address = 40203 (dec)
