FR-A7N-ETH

The FR-A7N-ETH multiprotocol communication interface provides Ethernet-based network connectivity to the Mitsubishi 700-series adjustable speed drives (ASDs).

The FR-A7N-ETH provides an IEEE 802.3 10BASE-T/100BASE-TX Ethernet port. The Ethernet port accepts standard CAT5-type 8-conductor unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) patch cables and supports multiple protocols simultaneously.

The FR-A7N-ETH supports up to twenty individually configurable alarms. A configurable network timeout action can also be programmed that allows parameters to have their own unique "fail-safe" conditions in the event of a network interruption. The configuration tool provides remote configuration as well as a dashboard composed of a variety of gauges, meters and graphs that can be configured to provide an at-a-glance graphical overview of critical application variables in real-time.
