Generic Drive communication profile

The Generic Drive communication profile is active when parameter 98.07 is set to
GENERIC. The Generic Drive profile realises the device profile for drives – speed
control only – as defined by specific fieldbus standards such as PROFIDRIVE for
PROFIBUS, AC/DC Drive for DeviceNet, Drives and Motion Control for CANopen,
etc. Each device profile specifies its Control and Status Words, Reference and
Actual value scaling. The profiles also define Mandatory services which are
transferred to the application interface of the drive in a standardised way.
The Generic Drive communication profile can be used through both EXT1 and
EXT2*. The proper functioning of the Generic Drive profile requires that Control
Word commands are enabled by setting parameter 10.01 or 10.02 (whichever
control location is active) to COMM.CW (or Par. 10.07 to 1) and by setting parameter
16.01 to YES.
*For vendor-specific support of EXT2 reference, see the appropriate fieldbus
manual.
Note: The Generic Drive profile is only available with type Rxxx fieldbus adapter
modules.
