Configuring the fieldbus
8.3 PROFIdrive profile for PROFIBUS and PROFINET
Indexed parameters
For indexed parameters, you must write the index number as hex value into the sub-index
(IND bit 15 ... 8).
Parameter contents
Parameter contents can be parameter values or connector parameters. For interconnecting
connector parameters please see section: Interconnecting signals in the inverter (Page 315).
Enter the parameter value, right-justified, as follows in the 4th word of the parameter
channel:
8-bit values:
16-bit values: 4. Word, bits 0 ... 15,
32-bit values: 3. and 4th word
Enter a connector parameter as follows:
Number of the connector parameter:
Drive object of the connector parameter:
The index or bit field number of the connector parameter:

Read request: Read out serial number of the Power Module (p7841[2])
To obtain the value of the indexed parameter p7841, you must fill the telegram of the
parameter channel with the following data:
● PKE, bit 12 ... 15 (AK): = 6 (request parameter value (field))
● PKE, bit 0 ... 10 (PNU): = 1841 (Parameter number without offset)
● IND, bit 8 ... 15 (subindex): = 2 (Index of the parameter)
● IND, bit 0 ... 7 (page index): = 90 hex (offset 6000 ≙ 90 hex)
● Because you want to read the parameter value, words 3 and 4 in the parameter channel
for requesting the parameter value are irrelevant. They should be assigned a value of 0,
for example.

4. Word, bit 0 ... 7,
bits 8 ... 15 of the 4th word and the 3rd word are zero.
The 3rd word is zero.
Parameter number = PNU + offset (page index)
(7841 = 1841 + 6000)

4. Word, bits 10 ... 15
4. Word, bits 0 ... 9
