Setting the Inverter ID



Setting the Inverter ID

There is an EEPROM in the inverter, which stores its supported LCD type and IDcode.
If you replace the LCd with one of a different brand, the ID information in the inverter EEPROM should be updated.

Follow the steps below to set the LCD inverter ID:
  1.  Boot from the Utility Program Diskette.
  2.  Select Panel ID Diagnostic from PC DOS 7.0 Startup Menu.
  3.  Follow the instructions on the screen to read the current ID Code or to set a new inverter ID code.

    Note: When you set a new inverter ID and the new LCD is not yet enabled (to function), connect  an external CRT to see the program execution process.

      - Attention - Make sure that the new ID code you  choose corresponds to the LCD brand and type.  If you write a wrong ID into the inverter, just reboot and re-execute the program and input the correct ID code.

  4.  Restart the computer - the new LCD should work normally.


Note: If the LCD has no display after changing the ID code, make sure you write the correct ID code or try reconnecting the LCD FPC cable connectors.
