Can I change Drive Parameter P 3.00 from the PLC? I want the PLC to tell the drive whether to accept instructions from itself or the manual devices wired to its inputs. If I set P3.00 to 01 or 02, can the PLC communicate and change it to 03 or 04 and back?

    You can write to parameter 3.00 via modbus rtu. It is 0300H (40769).

    There are no restrictions that I'm aware of.

    Thanks for the response. I am having trouble with RS232 Communications. I set up counters according to the manual to detect communications errors and it is indicating constant errors even though the drive does accept commands. Also the drive flashes ce03. I have double checked the values I am trying to send and everything seems is order. Any ideas?
