The A-slot options are typically communication options, for example, for adding fieldbus functionality.
The B-slot options typically host functional extension options.
The C-slot options host special function options, for example for advanced cascade control.
The D-slot option is used for an external power supply and for the real-time clock.
The options are slot-specific. So an A-option does only fit in an A-option slot.
Some options are drive-specific, as they require an application-specific operating system in the drive.
Some additional functionalities are not implemented via hardware options, but via specific software options, for example Digital
Cascade Controller.
