CAUTION
Beforeyou set a value, find out about its data type (see the "Object directory description" section).
The motor controller does notvalidate any entries for logic errors!
Values in the object directory can be set with the following syntax:
<Index>:<SubIndex>=<Value>
<Index>
This value corresponds to the index of the object and is interpreted as a hexadecimal number.
The value must always have four digits.
<SubIndex>
This value corresponds to the sub-index of the object and is interpreted as a hexadecimal
number. The value must always have two digits.
<Value>
The value that is to be written into the object is interpreted as a decimal number. A "
0x
" is to be
added to the front for hexadecimal numbers.

There are not to be any empty spaces to the left and right of the equals sign. The following
assignments are incorrect:
