Properties of a drive object
● Separate parameter space
● Separate window in STARTER
● Separate fault/alarm system (for CU, VECTOR, A_INF)
● Separate PROFIdrive telegram for process data (for CU, VECTOR, A_INF)
Configuring drive objects
When you commission the system for the first time using the STARTER tool, you will use
configuration parameters to set up the software-based "drive objects" which are processed
on the Control Unit. Various drive objects can be created within a Control Unit.
The drive objects are configurable function blocks and are used to execute specific drive
functions.
If you need to configure additional drive objects or delete existing ones after initial
commissioning, the drive system must be switched to configuration mode.
The parameters of a drive object cannot be accessed until the drive object has been
configured and you have switched from configuration mode to parameterization mode.
Note
Assignment during the initial commissioning
Each installed drive object is allocated a number between 0 and 63 during initial
commissioning for unique identification.
Parameters
● p0101 Drive object numbers
● r0102 Number of drive objects
● p0107 Drive object type
● p0108 Drive object configuration
6.3.3 Data sets
Description
For many applications, it is beneficial if more than one parameter can be changed
simultaneously by means of one external signal during operation/when the system is ready
for operation.
This can be carried out using indexed parameters, whereby the parameters are grouped
together in a data set according to their functionality and indexed. Indexing allows several
different settings, which can be activated by switching the data set, to be defined in each
parameter.
