Attribute Description
The data type of a parameter defines the maximum possible value range. 3 data
types are used for MICROMASTER. They either represent an unsigned integer value
(U16, U32) or a floating-point value (float). The value range is frequently restricted by
a minimum, maximum value (min, max) or using drive inverter/motor quantities.
U16
Unsigned, integer value with a size of 16 bits,
max. value range: 0 .... 65535
U32
Unsigned, integer value with a size of 32 bits
max. value range: 0 .... 4294967295
Data types
Float
A simple precise floating point value according to the IEEE standard format
max. value range: -3.39e
+38
– +3.39e
+38
The value range, which is specified as a result of the data type, is restricted/limited by
the minimum, maximum value (min, max) and using drive inverter/motor quantities.
Straightforward commissioning (start-up) is guaranteed in so much that the
parameters have a default value. These values (min, def, max) are permanently
saved in the drive inverter and cannot be changed by the user.

For MICROMASTER, the units of a particular parameter involve the physical quantity
(e.g. m, s, A). Quantities are measurable properties/characteristics of physical
objects, operations, states and are represented using characters of a formula (e.g. V
= 9 V).
