description attribute (20 H) subindex=1. If bit 10 is set, a
descriptive text exists for each value of the parameter.
As an example, parameter 0-01 Language has settings 0–5.
For each of these values, a specic text exists: 0=English,
2=Deutsch, and so on.
5.2.19 Format
Species the format type for each parameter (word, byte,
and so on), see Table 5.12.
5.2.20 Supported Data types

3 Integer16
4 Integer32
5 Unsigned8
6 Unsigned16
7 Unsigned32
9 Visible string
10 Octet string (byte string)
33 N2 (standardised value)
35 V2 (bit sequence)
44 Error
54 Time dierence without date indication

5.2.21 Value
The value eld contains the parameter value of the
request. When the response is negative, the eld contains
a corresponding fault code. If the values consist of an odd
number of bytes, a 0-byte is appended to maintain the
word structure of the telegrams.
For a positive partial response, the parameter value
eld
contains the following attributes:
•
Format = Data type or byte, word, double word.
•
Number of values = Actual number of values.
•
Value = Parameter value.
For a negative partial response, the parameter value eld
contains the following:
•
Format = Error (44H).
•
Number of values = 1.
•
Value = Error value = Error number.
5.2.22 Fault Codes for Drive Prole V 3.0
When the parameter request is invalid, the frequency
converter returns a corresponding fault code. Table 5.13
lists the full range of fault codes.

PCV Parameter Access
The PROFINET cyclic data exchange performs parameter
access via the PCV channel. The PCV channel forms part of
the PPOs described in chapter 4 Control.
Use the PCV channel to read and write parameter values,
and read status for descriptive attributes of each
parameter.
5.3.1 PCA Handling
The PCA part of PPO types 1, 2, and 5 performs several
tasks. Using PCA, the master controls and supervises
parameters and requests a response from the slave. Then
the slave responds to a request from the master. Requests
and responses are a handshake procedure and cannot be
