Principle when connecting BICO blocks using BICO technology
An interconnection between two BICO blocks comprises a connector or binector and a BICO
parameter. The interconnection is always established from the perspective of the input of a
particular BICO block. This means that the output of an upstream block must always be
assigned to the input of a downstream block. The assignment is always made by entering
the number of the connector/binector from which the required input signals are read in a
BICO parameter.
This interconnection logic involves the question: where does the signal come from?
Example
You have to use the BICO technology when adapting the function of inputs and outputs. You
find examples in the section Adapting the terminal strip (Page 73).
NOTICE
For the basic commissioning, you determine the function of the interfaces for your inverter
via predefined settings (p0015).
If you subsequently select a different predefined setting for the function of the interfaces,
then all BICO interconnections that you changed will be lost.
