option.
▶
Go to the folder where you stored the EDS file and open the file.
▶
Select a folder where the file should be stored.
Now “append” the DA1 variable frequency drive to the CAN master as a sub-
element:
▶
In the
PLC Configuration
dialog window, right-click on the
CanMaster[Var]
node to open the context menu.
Now go to the

The CAN master‘s and CAN nodes‘ baud rate must match.
Accordingly, make sure to check parameter P5-02 on the DA1
device.
Leave the default values for the other default settings alone.
If the baud rate on the CAN master is changed, you will need to
disconnect the PLC from the supply voltage and then restart it –
otherwise, the CAN master will not start.
