Receive buffer overflow

Bit 3 “BUF_F” of the Status word signals that the number of bytes in the receive buffer exceeds a certain value.

Set the desired number of bytes in the following CoE parameters:

Channel

CoE object

Parameter

1

8000hex

COM Settings Ch.1

1Ahex

Rx buffer full notification

2

8010hex

COM Settings Ch.2

1Ahex

Rx buffer full notification

Possible values

In the factory setting the parameter is set to 864 bytes.

From firmware 04 onwards, the receive buffer is larger than the parameter in the factory setting.
This means that in the factory setting, “BUF_F” warns of an impending receive buffer overflow.

Up to firmware 03, the parameter in the factory setting corresponds to the size of the receive buffer.
This means that in the factory setting, “BUF_F” signals that the receive buffer has already overflowed.

Example for channel 1
