Using Vector Drives - Siemens SIMOTION D410 Series Commissioning Manual

4.4.2

Using vector drives

Changes need to be made in HW Config when SINAMICS vector drives are used. This
means, for example, that the T
format depend on the type of device used.
Therefore, we recommend adopting the following procedure when using a vector drive with
the SIMOTION D410:
Procedure
1. Open HW Config. By "double clicking" the SINAMICS Integrated, you can change the
