Introduction

2. Benefits of using the Mitsubishi A800 PLC function

Inverter operation sequence customized for the machine

Inverter control such as inverter operations triggered by input signals, signal output according to the inverter

operating status, and monitor output can be freely customized according to the machine specifications, which

enhances the possibilities of the inverter. For example, for opening/closing of a shutter, a signal from a sensor is

used to check the number of opening and closing times. By controlling the opening/closing speed, various

shutter operations can be achieved. Control programs can be created in sequence ladders using FR

Configurator2 (Developer).

Optimum for the decentralized control

The control of the whole system is decentralized to inverters, and each inverter can manage their subordinating

devices.

A group of dedicated sequence programs is created and saved in each inverter. Therefore, the master controller

does not process all the sequence programs, and the decentralized system accepts program changes more

flexibly.

Automatic operation in accordance with the time

With the real-time clock function, automatic operation can be performed at certain times (when the optional FR-

LU08 is used).

User-configurable parameter, protective function, and monitor settings

User parameter

Up to 50 user parameters can be saved. The user parameters are linked with the data registers for the PLC

function. Therefore, changing a user parameter also changes the linked data register.

User initiated fault

Up to five specific fault-initiating conditions can be set to activate a protective function and shut off the inverter

output.

User monitor setting

User-defined data can be displayed on the operation panel.

Useful functions

Inverter parameter read/write

Parameter settings can be changed using sequence programs. The acceleration/deceleration time and patterns

can also be changed according to the operating status. RAM or EEPROM can be selected to save the parameter

settings. When the settings are changed frequently, select RAM.

PID function

Two different loops of PID inverter operations can be preset and controlled using sequence programs.

Inverter operation lock

The inverter operation can be locked against command sources other than the sequence programs.

Outline of the PLC function

4. Wiring of the inverter

Perform wiring of the inverter.

Wiring of the power supply

The following shows an example of wiring of the power supply cables and the earthing (grounding)

cable. Earthing (grounding) is performed to prevent electric shocks and malfunctions.

The terminal layout depends on the inverter capacity.

Always switch the inverter power OFF before performing inverter wiring work.

Reference

For the details of wiring, refer to the FR-A800 Instruction Manual (Detailed) (IB-0600503ENG).

1. Checking before power-ON

• Wiring of the power supply

• Power supply voltage

• Check that the connected switches (page 7) are OFF.

2. Turning the power ON

Check that the LED indicator on the operation panel (FR-DU08) is ON.

3. Changing the inverter parameter settings

Perform parameter settings to use the PLC function.

Enable the PLC function.

Set "2" in Pr.414 PLC function operation selection.
