S Properties of a drive object
– Separate parameter space
– Separate window in STARTER
– Separate fault/alarm system (for VECTOR, SERVO, INFEED)
– Separate PROFIBUS telegram for process data (for VECTOR, SERVO,
A_INFEED)
Optional drive objects
S Infeed: Line Module infeed control with DRIVE-CLiQ interface
If an Active Line Module with a DRIVE-CLiQ interface is used for the infeed in a
drive system, open-loop/closed-loop control is implemented on the Control Unit
within a corresponding drive object.
S Infeed: Line Module infeed control with DRIVE-CLiQ interface
If a Line Module without a DRIVE-CLiQ interface is used for the infeed in a
drive system, the Control Unit must handle activation and evaluation of the
corresponding signals (RESET, READY).
S Option Board evaluation
A further drive object is responsible for evaluating an installed Option Board.
The specific method of operation depends on the type of Option Board
installed.
S Terminal Module evaluation
A separate drive object handles evaluation of the respective optional Terminal
Modules.
Configuring drive objects
During initial commissioning in STARTER, the drive objects processed by means of
software in the Control Unit are created via configuration parameters. Various drive
objects can be created within a Control Unit.
The drive objects are configurable function blocks and are used to execute specific
drive functions.
If you need to configure additional drive objects or delete existing ones after initial
commissioning, the drive system must be switched to configuration mode.
The parameters of a drive object cannot be accessed until the drive object has
been configured and you have switched from configuration mode to parameteriza-
tion mode.
