Yaskawa V1000 Blade Programming
Programing a Yaskawa V1000 Drive
There are likely 5 Yaskawa V1000s on your Retro C, (2) on the stationary side and (3) on the carriage side. Each Yaskawa V1000 talks to a VC-1 and has its own specific address and that is what we are going to be programing into the unit in this document.

Yaskawa V1000 Parameters | |
H5-01 | Varies, check the “address” column of the table below |
H5-02 | 04 (same for all blades) |
H5-03 | 01 (same for all blades) |
Blade Number | Address |
Blade #1 (DR1) | 01 |
Blade #2 (DR2) | 02 |
Blade #6 (DR3) (Not Installed) | 03 |
Blade #3 (DR17) | 11 |
Blade #4 (DR18) | 12 |
Blade #5 (DR19) | 13 |
In this example we are going to be programing blade #5 so we will want to give it the address 13. If you are reprograming one of the other blades, see the table above for the corresponding address number.
Steps
- Determine which blade you want to reprogram and find the corresponding Yaskawa V1000 unit. If you want to program blade 5 look for “DR19” on the wires going into the unit or look for the label “DR 19” below the Yaskawa unit on the frame of the carriage panel itself.
