MP-3000
For INCOM, every communicating device must be set to a unique
address on the network using address switches on the I-PONI shown
in Figure 10.1. Also, all devices must be communicating at the same
baud rate, usually 9,600 baud, unless some old devices are on the
network. For Modbus RTU, DeviceNet, and Ethernet connections,
refer to the instructions for those PONIs for further information. Pow-
erNet software is supplied with its own comprehensive instructions,
which explain how to access MP-3000 data and control capabilities at
the host client computer.
The MP-3000 has a communications mode in which it emulates the
older IQ 1000 II relay, with which D-PONI, I-PONI, and RS-485 PONI,
can communicate.
To emulate IQ 1000 II communications, setting P12L15 should be set
to IQ2 EN. If this mode is selected, the communications functionality of
the MP-3000 will be restricted to that of the IQ 1000 II. The full appli-
cation functionality of the MP-3000 is still available via the front panel,
even when set to IQ2 EN; only data communications are restricted.
However, there is an important catch.
Table 10.1 lists the 50 (out of 154) MP-3000 settings, which corre-
spond to 27 settings of the IQ 1000 II, for which the MP-3000 offers
wider ranges or new options. If any of these settings are set to values
that were not available in the IQ 1000 II (right column of table), the
MP-3000 cannot report settings to the host, and communications will
not function.
The IQ 1000 II Range column gives the allowed setting ranges for
these, so that the relay can communicate with the three PONIs in the
IQ2 EN mode. The MP-3000 is shipped from the factory with default
settings that support these IQ2 EN communications. But the default
settings must be tailored to the motor. The User should check the
allowed ranges in Table 10.1. Therefore, the application abilities of
the MP-3000 may be slightly abridged if it must communicate with an
older host.
The communications messaging protocol specication for the
MP-3000 is open and available to users and communications
systems integrators without charge. Check the Eaton Power Manage-
ment Products web site, the distributor, or the factory for detailed
specications and documentation.
