The Altivar 61 drive has been designed to meet all the configuration requirements 
encountered within the context of industrial communication installations.

It includes Modbus and CANopen communication protocols as standard.

Two integrated communication ports enable direct access to the Modbus protocol:

• One RJ45 Modbus connector port

, located on the drive front panel, which is 

used to connect:

•  The remote graphic display terminal
•  A Magelis industrial HMI terminal
•  The PowerSuite software workshop

• One RJ45 Modbus network port

, located on the drive’s control terminals, 

which is dedicated to control and signaling by a PLC or other type of controller.
It can also be used to connect a display terminal or the PowerSuite software 
workshop.

The CANopen protocol can be accessed from the Modbus network port via the 
CANopen adapter 

 (1).

The Altivar 61 can also be connected to other networks and industrial communication 
buses by using one of the communication option cards:

• Ethernet TCP/IP
• Modbus/Uni-Telway. This card provides access to additional functions, which 

complement those of the integrated ports (Modbus ASCII and 4-wire RS 485)

• Fipio
• Modbus Plus
• Profibus  DP
• DeviceNet
• INTERBUS
• etc. (Please refer to the catalog)

The control section can be powered separately, thus allowing communication 
(monitoring, diagnostics) to be maintained even if the power supply section fails.

The main communication functions of Altivar 38 drives are compatible with the Altivar 
61 (2):
- Connection
- Communication services
- Drive behavior (profile)
- Control and monitoring parameters
- Basic adjustment parameters

The PowerSuite software workshop supports the transfer of configurations from Altivar 
38 drives to Altivar 61.
