APPENDIX A: Data types
The relationship between AC20 parameter and CANopen data type is given in the table below.
Arrays
Some parameters have multiple elements and are classified as parameter arrays. A parameter array has a
parameter number that accesses the whole of the array. It also has parameter numbers that represent
each element of the array.
Array Example: A parameter array called VHZ_USER FREQ has 11 elements.
Parameter - VHZ_USER FREQ
If the parameter number of the whole array is 0145, then the parameter number of the element index 0 of
the array will be 0134, the parameter number of the element index 01 will be 0147, etc.
String
A string parameter may be accessed via its parameter number.
