SIMODRIVE 611 universal Description of Functions (FBU) – 04.05 Edition
Data is transferred between the master and slaves according to the
master/slave principle. The drives are always the slaves. This permits
extremely fast cyclic data transfer.
In addition, non–cyclic communications functions are also used for
parameterization, diagnostics and fault/error handling during cyclic data
transfer with drives.
