Warning concept
This Manual contains information which you must observe to ensure your own personal safety as well as to avoid
material damage. The notices referring to your personal safety are highlighted in the manual by a safety alert
symbol, notices referring only to equipment damage have no safety alert symbol. Depending on the hazard level,
warnings are indicated in a descending order as follows:
If more than one level of danger is simultaneously applicable, the warning notice for the highest level is used. A
notice warning of injury to persons with a safety alert symbol may also include a warning relating to property
damage.
Qualified personnel
The product/system described in this documentation may only be operated by personnel qualified for the specific
task in accordance with the relevant documentation for the specific task, in particular its warning notices and safety
instructions. Qualified personnel are those who, based on their training and experience, are capable of identifying
risks and avoiding potential hazards when working with these products/systems.

Note
Industrial security
Siemens provides products and solutions with industrial security functions that support the
secure operation of plants, systems, machines and networks.
In order to protect plants, systems, machines and networks against cyber threats, it is
necessary to implement – and continuously maintain – a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept. Siemens products and solutions only represent one component of such a
concept.
The customer is responsible for preventing unauthorized access to its plants, systems,
machines and networks. Systems, machines and components should only be connected to the
enterprise network or the internet if and to the extent necessary and with appropriate security
measures (e.g. use of firewalls and network segmentation) in place.
Additionally, Siemens’ guidance on appropriate security measures should be taken into
account. For more information about industrial security, please visit:
Industrial security (http://www.siemens.com/industrialsecurity).
Siemens’ products and solutions undergo continuous development to make them more
secure. Siemens strongly recommends to apply product updates as soon as available and to
always use the latest product versions. Use of product versions that are no longer supported,
and failure to apply latest updates may increase customer’s exposure to cyber threats.
To stay informed about product updates, subscribe to the Siemens Industrial Security
RSS Feed at:

WARNING
Unsafe operating states resulting from software manipulation
Software manipulations (e.g. viruses, trojans, malware or worms) can cause unsafe
operating states in your system that may lead to death, serious injury, and property damage.
•Keep the software up to date.
•Incorporate the automation and drive components into a holistic, state-of-the-art industrial
security concept for the installation or machine.
•Make sure that you include all installed products into the holistic industrial security
concept.

•1: Standard (not adjustable, included in p0003 = 3)
•2: Extended (not adjustable, included in p0003 = 3)
•3: Expert
•4: Service
Parameters with this access level are password protected.
Calculated
Specifies whether the parameter is influenced by automatic calculations.
p0340 determines which calculations are to be performed:
•p0340 = 1 includes the calculations from p0340 = 2, 3, 4, 5.
•p0340 = 2 calculates the motor parameters (p0350 ... p0360, p0625).
•p0340 = 3 includes the calculations from p0340 = 4, 5.
•p0340 = 4 only calculates the controller parameters.
•p0340 = 5 only calculates the controller limits.
Parameters with a reference to p0340 after "Calculated" depend on the Power Module being
used and the motor. In this case, the values at "Factory setting" do not correspond to the actual
values because these values are calculated during the commissioning. This also applies to the
motor parameters.

Note
Parameter p0003 is CU-specific (belongs to the Control Unit).
A higher access level will also include the functions of the lower levels.
Note
For p3900 > 0, p0340 = 1 is also called automatically.
After p1900 = 1, 2, p0340 = 3 is also called automatically.

2 Parameters
2.1 Overview of parameters
Can be changed
The "-" sign indicates that the parameter can be changed in any object state and that the
change will be effective immediately.
The information "C(x), T, U" ((x): optional) means that the parameter can be changed only in
the specified drive unit state and that the change will not take effect until the unit switches to
another state. One or more states are possible.
The following states are available:
Normalization
Specification of the reference variable with which a signal value is automatically converted for
a BICO interconnection.
The following reference variables are available:
•p2000 … p2007: Reference speed, reference voltage, etc.
•PERCENT: 1.0 = 100 %
•4000H: 4000 hex = 100 % (wort) or 4000 0000 hex = 100 % (double word)
•p0514: specific normalization
Refer to the description for p0514[0…9] and p0515[0…19] to p0524[0…19]
•C(x) Commissioning C: Commissioning
Drive commissioning is in progress (p0010 > 0).
Pulses cannot be enabled.
The parameter can only be changed in the following drive commissioning settings
(p0010 > 0):
•C: Can be changed for all settings p0010 > 0.
•C(x): Can only be changed for the settings p0010 = x.
A modified parameter value does not take effect until drive commissioning mode is
exited with p0010 = 0.
•UOperation U:Run
Pulses are enabled.
•T Ready T: Ready to run
The pulses are not enabled and the status "C(x)" is not active.

For parameters with a dynamic index [0...n], the following information is specified here:
•Data set (if available).
•Parameter for the number of indices (n = number - 1).
The following information can be contained in this field:
•"CDS, p0170" (Command Data Set, CDS count)
Example:
p1070[0] main setpoint [command data set 0]
p1070[1] main setpoint [command data set 1], etc.
•"DDS, p0180" (Drive Data Set, DDS count)
•"EDS, p0140" (Encoder Data Set, EDS count)
•"MDS, p0130" (Motor Data Set, MDS count)
•"PDS, p0120" (Power unit Data Set, PDS count)
Data sets can only be created and deleted when p0010 = 15.
Unit group and unit selection
The standard unit of a parameter is specified in square parentheses after the values for "Min",
"Max", and "Factory setting".
For parameters where the unit can be switched over, the specifications for "Unit group" and
"Unit selection" determine the group to which this parameter belongs and with which parameter
the unit can be switched over.
Example:
Unit group: 7_1, unit selection: p0505
The parameter belongs to unit group 7_1 and the unit can be switched over using p0505.
All the potential unit groups and possible unit selections are listed below.

Parameter values
Description
Explanation of the function of a parameter
Values
Lists the possible values of a parameter.
Recommendation
Information about recommended settings.
Index
The name and meaning of each individual index is specified for indexed parameters.
The following applies to the values (Min, Max, Factory setting) of indexed adjustable
parameters:
•Min, Max:
The adjustment range and unit apply to all indices.
•Factory setting:
When all indices have the same factory setting, index 0 is specified with the unit to
represent all indices.
When the indices have different factory settings, they are all listed individually with the unit.
Min Minimum value of the parameter [unit]
Max Maximum value of the parameter [unit]
Factory setting Value when delivered [unit]
In the case of a binector/connector input, the signal source of the
default BICO interconnection is specified. A non-indexed connector
output is assigned the index [0].
A different value may be displayed for certain parameters (e.g. p1800)
at the initial commissioning stage or when establishing the factory
settings.
Reason:
The setting of these parameters is determined by the operating
environment of the Control Unit (e.g. depending on converter type,
power unit).
