<Before you begin>
Microsoft and Toshiba have the Copyrights to this software. Copying this software to
unauthorized PC is prohibited.
Do not install programs other than the above on your PC. The settings of your PC may be
altered causing the Wi Tool to slow down or become inoperable.
<Notes on rewriting drive equipment data>
Observe the following when rewriting the drive equipment data.
1) Rewriting the data may disturb the drive equipment. (For example, if the speed setting is
rewritten, the motor speed will change. If the control gain is rewritten, the control system will
change causing it to trip or become unstable. ) Be very careful when rewriting. When the motor
is running, the message "OK to rewrite while running?" appears on the screen.
2) When rewriting the data, there is a password function on the drive equipment side. If the
correct password is not provided, a password error occurs and the data remains unchanged.
3) The setting in the drive equipment is normally written in RAM. Wi Tool normally modifies this
data in RAM. However, this data in RAM is erased once the power is turned off. Therefore, the
drive equipment also holds the settings in EEPROM which is not erased when the power is
turned off and the settings are copied to RAM from EEPROM when the power is turned on.
When data is changed with the Wi Tool, only the data in RAM is changed. Therefore, the
settings must be copied from RAM to EEPORM before turning the power off.
