NOTE!
If you use long motor cables (max. 100 m) with small drives (≤1.5 kW), the motor
current that the drive measures can be much higher than the actual motor current.
It is because there are capacitive currents in the motor cable.

FIELDBUS CONTROL PARAMETERS (IDS 850 TO 859)
The Fieldbus control parameters are used when the frequency or the speed reference comes
from the fieldbus (Modbus, Profibus, DeviceNet etc.). With the Fieldbus Data Out Selection
1-8 you can monitor values from the fieldbus.
8.7.1
PROCESS DATA OUT (SLAVE -> MASTER)
The fieldbus master can read the AC drive’s actual values using process data variables.
Basic, Standard, Local/Remote, Multi-Step, PID control and Pump and fan control
applications use process data as follows:

The Multipurpose application has a selector parameter for every Process Data. The
monitoring values and drive parameters can be selected using the ID number. Default
selections are as in the table above.

NOTE!
Monitoring value ID45 (usually in Process data OUT3) is given with one decimal
only.
