I guess nobody here has a Fuling DZB200M. Oh well I'll just keep doing it all manual for now. I've tried emailing Fuling but their emails just bounce back again.
Cheers anyway

Hi all
I've got a Fuling DZB200M single -> 3 phase inverter. The unit came set to keyboard mode, meaning that I can control run/fwd, run/reverse, speed and stop all from the keyboard on the inverter. I want to put it into terminal mode, so I can control the inverter from Mach3. I found an english manual online, but I can't seem to get it into the programming mode so I can change over to terminal control.
If I scroll through the menus while stopped all I get is:
H0.00
F0.00
P 00
H0.00
A 0.0
FRD
From the manual I gather that I should select F0.00 then press FUNC/DATA to enter the menus. But it won't do anything. I can't scroll through the sub menus. The manual mentions a password but the unit never asks for a password (not that I've set one up). It should hopefully be factory default settings but I can't find anything about to reset it anyway.
Does anyone have any ideas with the beast?
Cheers - Matt

hello,
I just order one of this and I intend to connect it through an RS458 port to Mach3.
But for now this is just a project.
Please tell me if you are solving this issue and if your connection with Mach3 is working.
I hope I'll be able to support this thread but this will happen just after I'll finish my router and have anything in place and working.
Best regards,
Seb
I eventually worked out that the function codes are using the serial number on the right hand side of the table. I was able to get it into terminal mode. I still have some different firmware I guess though because the table was slightly different. But I was only after terminal mode which worked ok for me. The default contacts allow me to remotely select the run forward command which is all I'm after.
Hope you have fun! Let me know how you go with RS485.
Cheers Matt
hello again
I've got my 1.5kw spindle motor and the Fuling inverter. I cannot test it yet in Communication mode because the RS485 adapter doesn't arrive...
In the mean time I've read the manual and some topics about the Huanyang inverter (Huanyang VFD controller plugin) and I suppose following:
The Fuling inverter should be set up just like the Huanyang inverter, with the same Mach3 plugin, we just have to find the correct settings for it.
For Huanyang, these settings are:
Register - Value - Description
PD001 - 2 - Allows commands from communication port
PD002 - 2 - Allows frequency control from communications port
PD163 - 1~250 - Specifies VFD address
PD164 - 0~3 - Specify baud. Recommend: 1(9600)
PD165 - 3 - 8N1 RTU
If I am correct, for Fuling, these settings should be:
Register - Value - Description
F0.01 - 2 - Command source selection
F0.03 - 6 - Frequency command Selection
F6.00 - 1~247 - Communication Address
F6.01 - 3 - Baud rate setting
F6.02 - 0 - Data pattern
The reference manual for Fuling inverter is here:
http://www.ms-motor.com/frequency_in...usermanual.pdf
I hope it's good.
The inverter have to work in Communication mode (through RS485), not Terminal mode, I think...
I repeat, I doesn't test it yet, I'll do it right after I'll have the RS485 adapter.
Until then, I'm wondering about one setting: F0.01
If F0.01 will be 2 (Communication) instead 0 (Keyboard, default), I will lose the keyboard control over the VFD? How can I will return to the Keyboard mode?
I'm a little bit scared about this parameter...
Best Regards
hello again,
finally I have the rs232/rs485 adapter
I connected it today but something is not OK because the spindle does not respond at mach3 commands
in fact, the huangyang plugin doesn't "read" the inverter.
the default "99" values are still "99"
I hope I'll have some time to spend with this problem in the next days
regards
it seems the fuling vfd will work directly through the MODBUS protocol
huanyang plugin will not be required
I'll try it asap and report back
So far, so good.
I connected the Fuling VFD to the Mach3 through the Modbus.
The ModIO plugin for Mach3 is reading the VFD's parameters without problems.
For now, I have to find out how to control the spindle through Mach3 because with the default settings don't work.
I'm really stuck and all founded information are driving me crazy...
For now, I have the VFD successfully connected through the RS485 line and Mach3's Modbus can read any serial address from VFD.
Could somebody give me some advices? Thanks.
nobody?![]()
so far, so good
I managed to control the Fuling inverter through the RS485 serial line. (see page 94 in manual - Communication control command)
Working commands are: FWD Run, REV Run, Stop, EStop.
I cannot figure why the JOG command doesn't work.
Communication setting address (page 95) is used for setting the running frequency (speed).
Also, I can read following parameters from inverter: Running Speed, Torque, Power setting, Voltage and so on... (see page 95 - Run/stop parameter address)
All these commands are controlled by some simple brains made by me.
If somebody is interested, please ask.
Regards,
Seb
Have you worked out how to control the spindle speed from Mach3 successfully?
I've just decided I need to control speed myself, and maybe it's worth investing in a RS-485 adaptor to achieve this. It seems like MODBUS should be easy enough (well after hearing from you anyway).
