Hitachi P1 VFD User manual
There are 3 different ways a Hitachi VFD may be connected to MachMotion control: Ethercat, TCP
Modbus, or Hardwired. Use the following procedure to determine which method your VFD uses.
Then in each section of the manual go to that control method for information on how to program or
connect it.
On the menu bar of the MachMotion software, click Configure -> Control, then select theOutput
Signalstab.
Scroll down about 2/3s the list to the Spindle section. The Device that is selected for Spindle Fwd
and / or Spindle Rev shows how the spindle is controlled. Use the pictures below to identify which
method is used.
For a hardwired VFD, it could be controlled through a Beckhoff Device OR an Apollo III.
Control Cable: The VFD Control cable is the green Ethernet cable that runs from the Yaskawa VFD
to the Control PC as shown in Figure 1. Or if you have an Apollo III motion controller, connect the
VFD control cable into Ethernet 1 Port on the Apollo III.

Spindle Motor: Connect your spindle motor to the terminals labeled U/T1,V/T2, and W/T3 as
shown in Figure 2. If your spindle moves the wrong direction when you turn it on, just swap any
three of the (U,V,W) leads.
(Figure 2 Spindle Motor Connections)
Brake Resistor: Connect your brake resistor by placing the two wires on the RB and P terminals
as shown in Figure 3.
(Note: If needed to extend the wires use High Temp rated wire.)
Mount Resistor:Mount the resistor to the cabinet. Wire as shown in Figure 3.
To modify the IP address follow these steps:
1. F1 (menu)
2. Select 01 Scroll modewith the Center button
3. Press the Down Arrow multiple times until you highlight o:Option Card
4. Select o:Option Card with the Center button
5. Press F2 (Next Gr) multiple time until you get to the group oL-01 IPv4 IP address
6. Press the Down Arrow multiple times until you highlight oL-03 IPv4 IP address
7. Select oL-03 IPv4 IP addresswith the Center button
8. Using the Up and Down, Left and Right Arrows set the IP Address group 3 to 208
9. Press F2 (Save)
10. Repeat steps 6 to 9 to set the remaining address groups
Before the Control can connect to the VFD these parameters need to be set. On default you should
only need to set the ones in bold.
Parameters Description Default Range
oL-01 IPv4 IP Address (1) 192 IP Address
oL-02 IPv4 IP Address (2) 168 IP Address
oL-03 IPv4 IP Address (3) 208 IP Address
oL-04 IPv4 IP Address (4) 95 IP Address
oL-09 IPv4 Default Gateway (1) 192 IP Address
oL-10 IPv4 Default Gateway (2) 168 IP Address
oL-11 IPv4 Default Gateway
(3) 208 IP Address
oL-12 IPv4 Default Gateway (4) 1 IP Address
To program the VFD you will need to utilize the Parameters. Follow the next few steps to find the
Hitachi parameters.

For a main spindle, set Control Source to Mach and Modbus Control Enabled to Yes. For any
other spindle like a grind wheel, regulating wheel, or sub spindle, set Control Source to Auxiliary
and Modbus Control Enabled to Yes.
To set up the Hitachi VFD to be commanded by EtherCAT you will need to modify 2 parameters:

Go to Configure | Plugins | RapidPath - MachMotion:
Select the Other Devices tab, Click on the Hitachi VFD in the dropdown on the left and then select
the Device Parameters at the bottom of the page:
The RapidPath plugin controls (writes to) some parameters for operation. If you change the
value of any of them, your change will be overwritten.
This can be done automatically via Mach.
