1.1.1 Product confirmation
After unpacking, check that the following items are contained in the package:
POINT
• Communication between FR Configurator and the inverter must be performed when the programmable controller is in STOP
status. When FR Configurator is online, do not set the programmable controller in the RUN status. Doing so may affect the
commands from the sequence program to the inverter.
Note
• If a file name or folder name is using Unicode, system file writing or reading may not be performed correctly. Please
use a file name and folder name without Unicode.
• The following functions are not compatible with this software.
• Application starting with Windows
compatibility mode
• Starting using "Run As..."
• Fast User Switching
• Remote Desktop
• Large font size (Advanced setting of screen property)
• DPI setting other than the normal size (Advanced setting of screen property)
• Windows XP Mode
• Windows Touch
• A part of this software is using a function of Internet Explorer. This software may not function properly depending on
the Internet Explorer setting.
For example, if the user assistant is set in "Option," file opening or selecting function in "Startup" window may
become unavailable. Please change the Internet Explorer setting into a default setting, or select the desired function
from a main screen of FR Configurator.
• Do not use FR Configurator when operating the inverter with FR-PU07BB battery.
FR Configurator may not operate properly.
• In FR Configurator CC-Link Seamless, the units for parameter settings and monitored items are not displayed, and
their digits are shifted. A value in FR Configurator may be different from the value displayed on the operation panel.
Check the units by referring to the Inverter Manual before setting parameters or reading monitored items.
• Communication between FR Configurator and the inverter must be performed when the programmable controller is
in STOP status.
• FR Configurator CC-Link Seamless is not compatible with the PLC function. If a parameter setting of an inverter is
Pr. 544 "100", do not communicate with that inverter. Communication with an inverter with Pr. 544 "100" setting
may cause malfunction of the inverter PLC program.
• Do not use FR Configurator at the same time when other software (like MELSOFT Navigator) are executing a
parameter processing function or a command execution of slave stations. FR Configurator may not operate properly
if other software are executing these function at the same time.
