NOTE • Terminals SD, SE and 5 are common terminals for I/O signals. (All common terminals are isolated from each other.) Do not earth (ground) these terminals. Avoid connecting terminals SD and 5 and terminals SE and 5. • Terminal SD is a common terminal for the contact input terminals (STF, STR, RH, RM, RL, MRS, and RES) and the pulse train output terminal (FM).
INSTALLATION AND WIRING Pre-installation instructions Check that all the power supplies to be input to the inverter are OFF. CAUTION • Do not install or remove the control terminal option while the input power is ON. Doing so may damage the inverter or the control terminal option.
Installation procedure Remove the inverter front cover. (Refer to the FR-E800 Instruction Manual (Connection) for instructions to remove the cover.) Remove the installation screw of the standard control circuit terminal block. Slide down the standard control circuit terminal block to remove it. Remove the screw.
