Fieldbus control 295
Relay output control
Using the fieldbus for relay output control requires:
• Drive parameter values set as defined below.
• Fieldbus controller supplied reference word(s) in the appropriate location. (The
location is defined by the Protocol Reference, which is protocol dependent.)
1. More than 1 relay requires the addition of a relay extension module.
For example: To control relays 1 and 2 using serial communication:
Set parameters 1401 RELAY OUTPUT 1 and 1402 RELAY OUTPUT 2 = 35 (
COMM).
Then, for example using N2:
• To turn Relay 1 On: Force object B07 to On.
• To turn Relay 2 On: Force object B08 to On.
• To turn both Relay 1 and 2 On: Force objects B07 and B08 On.
Note: Relay status feedback occurs without configuration as defined below.
