»Engineer«
Lenze PC software which supports you in "engineering" (parameter setting,
diagnosing, and configuring) during the entire life cycle, i.e. from planning to
maintenance of the commissioned machine.
Code
Parameter which serves to parameterise or monitor the inverter. In general
linguistic usage, this term is also referred to as "index".
Subcode
If a code contains several parameters, these are stored in "subcodes".
In this documentation, a slash "/" is used as a separator between code and
subcode (e.g. "C00118/3").
The term is usually called "subindex".
Lenze setting
This setting is the default factory setting of the device.

CTT2 transmission
(Combined Transaction Type 2)
Serial data transmission is established between master and slave (clock in/out,
data in/out). This channel serves for ...
• acyclic transmission of data records;
• acyclic transmission of the extended process image.
Data set transmission
In the case of CTT2 transmission, data records are transmitted between the
master and the slave only on request. During acyclic data record transmission,
the cyclic transmission of the extended process image is interrupted.
Process image
In the case of the Inverter Drive 8400 motec, 4 bits of control data (PAA) are
transmitted to the slave every time the slave is called. The slave returns a
response containing 6 bits of information (PAE). The transmission is carried out
at least every 10 ms (
, depending on the addressing
assignment).
In the case of extended process images, continuous transmission of 4 bytes per
direction between the master and the slave takes place.
Parameter echo (diagnostics via
parameter data channel)
The "Write Parameter" AS-i command serves to transmit 4 parameter bits to the
slave.
In the response message, the slave returns 4 bits (16 bit combinations) of status
information.
ICs
Circuits which efficiently perform the described tasks of a slave.

Microcontroller
