8.1 BICO Technology
Interconnecting signals (BICO)
A state-of-the-art inverter must be able to interconnect internal and external signals (setpoint
or actual values and control or status signal). This interconnection functionality must have a
high degree of flexibility in order to be able to adapt the inverter to new applications. Further,
a high degree of usability is required, which also fulfills standard applications. To fulfill these
requirements BICO technology and fast parameterization using parameters P0700/P1000
are used.
8.1.1 Selection of command/setpoint source P0700 and P1000
Description
The following parameters can be used to quickly interconnect setpoints and control signals:
● P0700 Selection of command source
● P1000 Selection of setpoint source
These parameters are used to define through which interface the inverter receives the
setpoint or the power-on/power-off command. The interfaces, shown in the table below can
be selected for the command source P0700.
