The following parameter attributes are shown:
|
Attribute |
Explanation |
|---|---|
|
Data type |
The parameter matches one of the following data types: binary: The parameter is stored with a bit pattern. dec: The parameter contains signed decimal values. hex: The parameter contains hexadecimal values. idn: The parameter contains parameter lists. udec: The parameter contains unsigned decimal values. text: The parameter contains text. |
|
Data length |
The data length of the parameter is specified in bits. |
|
Decimal point |
The number of decimal places of the parameter is specified. Example: 5 decimal places: 20000 -> 0.2 |
|
Min value |
A minimum value exists for this parameter. |
|
Max value |
A maximum value exists for this parameter. |
|
Default value |
Default value for the parameter (factory setting) |
|
Unit |
The unit of the parameter is specified in this field. |
|
Changeable in EtherCAT state |
The parameter can be changed to: Init (corresponds to Sercos CP0/1) PreOp (corresponds to Sercos CP2) SafeOp (corresponds to Sercos CP3) Op (corresponds to Sercos CP4) No (cannot be changed) |
|
Cyclic transfer |
The parameter can be transferred cyclically (im): DT (drive telegram) MDT (master data telegram) DT+MDT (drive telegram and master data telegram) No (cannot be transferred cyclically) |
|
Device parameter |
The parameter may be device-dependent, i.e. it may be different for each servo drive model. Example for a device parameter: Servo drive rated current (S-0-0112). Yes (device-dependent) No (device-independent) |
|
Password level |
EtherCAT supports passwords and two password levels to protect selected parameters. |
|
Related to interface revision |
The parameter is tied to a certain interface version: No from Rev. 203 (yes, valid from interface version 203) changed from Rev. 210 (yes, valid from interface version 210) |
