Hi,
I have a setup where a fan is being controlled by a VFD (1336 Plus II) which interfaces via a scanport module (1203-FM-1) to the PLC (PLC-5/40).
I would like to know what happens to the VFD if the VFD is put into LOCAL mode AND it loses communication with the PLC (which is supplying the speed reference) for whatever reason.
Will the VFD continue to function? Will it change speed to a default or retain the last held values it received from the PLC?
Any ideas based on experiences with the VFD would be appreciated.
Thanks,
Nadeem
