Serial Comms.
We have the serial communications options, Modbus, Profibus-DP, CANlink and
CANopen.
F0-28 has to be set correctly to engage the selected serial communication card if Modbus,
Probus-DP or CANopen is selected. F0-28 need not be set if CANlink is selected.

When the AC drive is controlled via serial communication, the host computer must send
write command to the AC drive. The below Figure 6-26 uses the Modbus protocol to
control frequency reference.

When the AC drive is controlled via communication, host computer must send write
command to the AC drive. Here takes Modbus as an example to describe process of
giving RUN command via serial communication.
