Block Check
Code (BCC)
This section shows how the inverter protocol computes defines a BCC—block check code. The
BCC is calculated for each frame transmitted and can be used to verify the integrity of data
transmission. The example below shows command 01 setting the inverter frequency to 5Hz.
The block check code is computed by using the ASCII codes (shown above) and applying
eXclusive OR (XOR) operations. Beginning with the first pair of bytes, the result of their XOR
result is then used in an XOR operation with the third byte, and so on. For this example, the
BCC calculation is shown below.
