Interface to the PC
The USB 2.0‑connecting cable is used to connect the inverter with the "EASY Starter" Emotron
Commisioning & Maintenance Tool. The "EASY Starter" serves to configure the inverter via graphical
interfaces. They create diagnostics
with trend functions or monitor parameter values.
Parameterising without supplying the inverter with voltage: If you connect the inverter without hub directly
to the PC, the USB interface of the PC is sufficient for the voltage supply.
Inverters with network option EtherCAT, PROFINET or EtherNET/IP must be supplied with an
additional voltage (inverter AC power on) for setting parameters if a connection cable longer than 3 m
is used.
Please observe the following for USB modules labelled as "PRE-SERIES": Inverters withnetwork
option EtherCAT, PROFINET or EtherNET/IP must always be supplied with an additional voltage for
setting parameters.
