PC-based Configuration Tool MCT 10
The Low Harmonic Drive is equipped with two serial
communication ports. Danfoss provides a PC tool for
communication between PC and frequency converter, PC-
based Configuration Tool MCT 10. Check for detailed
information on this tool.
MCT 10 set-up software
MCT 10 has been designed as an easy to use interactive
tool for setting parameters in our frequency converters.
The software can be downloaded from the Danfoss
internet site http://www.Danfoss.com/BusinessAreas/Drives-
Solutions/Softwaredownload/DDPC+Software+Program.htm.
The MCT 10 set-up software will be useful for:
•
Planning a communication network off-line. MCT
10 contains a complete frequency converter
database
•
Commissioning frequency converters on line
•
Saving settings for all frequency converters
•
Replacing a frequency converter in a network
•
Simple and accurate documentation of frequency
converter settings after commissioning.
•
Expanding an existing network
•
Future developed frequency converters will be
supported
MCT 10 set-up software supports Profibus DP-V1 via a
Master class 2 connection. It makes it possible to on line
read/write parameters in a frequency converter via the
Profibus network. This will eliminate the need for an extra
communication network.
Save frequency converter settings:
1. Connect a PC to the unit via USB com port.
(NOTE: Use a PC, which is isolated from the
mains, in conjunction with the USB port. Failure
to do so may damage equipment.)
2. Open MCT 10 Set-up Software
3. Choose “Read from drive”
4. Choose “Save as”
All parameters are now stored in the PC.
Load frequency converter settings:
1. Connect a PC to the frequency converter via USB
com port
2. Open MCT 10 Set-up software
3. Choose “Open”– stored files will be shown
4. Open the appropriate file
5. Choose “Write to drive”
All parameter settings are now transferred to the
frequency converter.
A separate manual for MCT 10 Set-up Software is available:
