Parameters
Overview
The drive is adapted to the relevant drive task by means of parameters. Each parameter is
identified by a unique parameter number and by specific attributes (e.g. read, write, BICO
attribute, group attribute, and so on).
The parameters can be accessed via the following means:
●
PC with the "STARTER" commissioning tool via PROFIBUS
●
The user-friendly AOP30 Operator Panel
Parameter types
The following adjustable and visualization parameters are available:
●
Adjustable parameters (write/read)
These parameters have a direct impact on the behavior of a function.
Example: Ramp-up and ramp-down time of a ramp-function generator
●
Visualization parameters (read-only)
These parameters are used to display internal variables.
Example: current motor current

Parameter types
All these drive parameters can be read and changed via PROFIBUS using the mechanisms
defined in the PROFIdrive profile.
