2.5 Process data transmission
Process data are used in control technology, e.g. setpoint and actual values.
• Process data are transmitted with a high priority as so-called PDOs (
Process Data Objects
)
via the system bus.
• Special system blocks are used to transmit and receive process data:
CAN
(integrated)
XCAN
(AIF in terface)
FIF CAN
(FIF in terface)

Tip!
In the following sub-sections, you can find additional information about the CAN1_IO ... CAN3_IO
process data objects of the integrated system bus interface. This information applies to both the
process data objects of the AIF and FIF interface!
2.5.1 Process data channels
Process data channel 1: CAN1_IO
The CAN1_IO SB can be used to exchange cyclic process data (e.g. setpoint and actual values)with
a higher-level control system.
