1 System Configuration
The following table lists system configurations for connecting Mitsubishi Electric Corporation External Devices
and the Display.
• If problems such as communication interruptions due to a disconnection of the signal
wire or malfunction of the Display cannot be detected on the inverter side, implement
a precautionary measure by using the inverter’s communication retry function or
communication check function. Refer to your External Device manual for details.
• Do not reset the inverter while communication is enabled. This may cause
malfunction. Prior to resetting the inverter, take the Display offline.

only RS-232C is supported. However, ER (DTR/CTS) control cannot be executed because of the
specification of COM port.
For connection with External Device, use user-created cables and disable Pin Nos. 1, 4, 6 and 9.
Please refer to the IPC manual for details of pin layout.
