5 Parameter set
5.1 General
Important settings and function-related variables are factory-programmed into the electronic drive unit
as parameters. Each parameter has a three-digit number and a description. The use of the parameter is
possible via Pfeiffer Vacuum displays and control panels, or externally via RS-485 using Pfeiffer Vac-
uum protocol.
The pump starts in standard mode with factory default pre-set parameter.
When switching off or in the event of unintentional voltage drop, the parameters
and the operating hours stay saved in the electronics.
# Three digit number of the parameter
Display Display of the parameter designation in the display, *: means representation as an icon
if necessary
Designation Brief description of the parameters
Functions Function description of the parameters
Data type Type of formatting of the parameter for the use with the Pfeiffer Vacuum protocol
Access type R (read): Read access; W (write): Write access
Unit Physical unit of the described variable
min. / max. Permissible limit values for the entry of a value
default Factory default pre-setting (partially pump-specific)
The parameter can be saved in the electronic drive unit non-volatile

5.2 Additional parameter for the DCU
Additional parameter in the control unit
The basic parameter set is set in the electronic drive unit ex-factory. For controlling
connected external components (e.g. vacuum measuring instruments), additional
parameters (extended parameter set) are available in the corresponding Pfeiff-
er Vacuum display and control units.
●
Refer to the corresponding operating instructions of the respective compo-
nents.
●
If necessary, select the extended parameter set with parameter [P:794] = 1.
