2.1 Overview of parameters
SINAMICS G120 Control Units CU240B-2/CU240E-2
16 List Manual (LH11), 01/2016, A5E33839529
Parameters with a reference to p0340 after "Calculated" depend on the Power Module being
used and the motor. In this case, the values at "Factory setting" do not correspond to the actual
values because these values are calculated during the commissioning. This also applies to the
motor parameters.
Data type
The information on the data type can consist of the following two items (separated by a slash):
• First item
Data type of the parameter.
• Second item (for binector or connector input only)
Data type of the signal source to be interconnected (binector-/connector output).
Parameters can have the following data types:
Depending on the data type of the BICO input parameter (signal sink) and BICO output
parameter (signal source), the following combinations are possible when creating BICO
interconnections:
• Integer8 I8 8-bit integer number
• Integer16 I16 16-bit integer number
• Integer32 I32 32-bit integer number
• Unsigned8 U8 8 bits without sign
• Unsigned16 U16 16 bits without sign
• Unsigned32 U32 32 bits without sign
• FloatingPoint32 Float 32-bit floating point number
