Topologies / network
The inverters can be equipped with dierent eldbus networks.
The topologies and protocols typical for the prevailing networks are supported.
Currently available networks:
CANopen® is a communicaon protocol based on CAN.
CANopen® is a r
egistered community trademark of the CAN user organisaon CiA® (CAN in Automaon e. V.).
