No.
Not in use / uint16Defines the role of the drive on the master/follower or
drive-to-drive link.
M/F mode60.3
0Master/follower functionality not active.Not in use
1The drive is the master on the master/follower (DDCS)
link.
DDCS master
2The drive is a follower on the master/follower (DDCS)
link.
DDCS follower
3The drive is the master on the master/follower (D2D)
link.
Note: This setting is only to be used with D2D
communication implemented by application
programming. If you are using the master/follower
functionality (see page 72) through the XD2D
connector, select DDCS master instead.

4The drive is a follower on the master/follower (D2D)
link.
Note: This setting is only to be used with D2D
communication implemented by application
programming. If you are using the master/follower
functionality (see page 72) through the XD2D
connector, select DDCS follower instead.

5The role of the drive on the master/follower (DDCS)
link is defined by parameters 60.15 Force master and
60.16 Force follower.

6The role of the drive on the master/follower (D2D) link
is defined by parameters 60.15 Force master and 60.16
Force follower.
Note: This setting is only to be used with D2D
communication implemented by application
programming. If you are using the master/follower
functionality (see page 72) through the XD2D
connector, select DDCS forcing instead.
D2D forcing
Ring / uint16Selects the topology of the master/follower link.
Note: Use the setting Star if using the master/follower
functionality (see page 72) through the XD2D connector
(as opposed to a fiber optic link).
