7.3.1 Content of a Character (byte)
Each character transferred begins with a start bit. Then 8
data bits are transferred, corresponding to a byte. Each
character is secured via a parity bit. This bit is set at "1"
when it reaches parity. Parity is when there is an equal
number of 1s in the 8 data bits and the parity bit in total.
A stop bit completes a character, thus consisting of 11 bits
in all.

7.3.2 Telegram Structure
Each telegram has the following structure:
1.
Start character (STX)=02 Hex
2.
A byte denoting the telegram length (LGE)
3.
A byte denoting the frequency converter address
(ADR)
A number of data bytes (variable, depending on the type
of telegram) follows.
A data control byte (BCC) completes the telegram.
Illustration 7.6
7.3.3 Telegram Length (LGE)
The telegram length is the number of data bytes plus the
address byte ADR and the data control byte BCC.
4 data bytes
LGE = 4 + 1 + 1 = 6 bytes
12 data bytes
LGE = 12 + 1 + 1 = 14 bytes

The 10 represents the fixed characters, while the “n’” is variable
(depending on the length of the text).
7.3.4 Frequency Converter Address (ADR)
Two different address formats are used.
The address range of the frequency converter is either 1-31
or 1-126.
1. Address format 1-31:
Bit 7 = 0 (address format 1-31 active)
Bit 6 is not used
Bit 5 = 1: Broadcast, address bits (0-4) are not
used
Bit 5 = 0: No Broadcast
Bit 0-4 = frequency converter address 1-31
2. Address format 1-126:
Bit 7 = 1 (address format 1-126 active)
Bit 0-6 = frequency converter address 1-126
Bit 0-6 = 0 Broadcast
The slave returns the address byte unchanged to the
master in the response telegram.
7.3.5 Data Control Byte (BCC)
The checksum is calculated as an XOR-function. Before the
first byte in the telegram is received, the Calculated
Checksum is 0.
