3.5.8 Series commissioning 
The parameter set can be read-out (upread) from the drive converter via the serial 
interface and saved on the hard disk / floppy disk or in a non-volatile memory (e.g. 
EEPROM) using the following 
¾  PC Tools (e.g. STARTER, DriveMonitor) or the 
¾  Operator panel AOP 
(please refer to Fig. 3-28).  
The interfaces of the drive inverter with USS protocol and the fieldbus interfaces 
(e.g. PROFIBUS) which can be used to transfer parameters, can be used as serial 
interface.

Fig. 3-28  Upread / download using AOP and PC Tools 
If there is already an appropriate parameter set for the drive, which, for example, 
was created by either upreading or by programming offline, then this can be 
downloaded into the drive inverter. This means that it is possible to transfer the 
parameter set from drive inverter A to drive inverter B which, for identical 
applications (e.g. series machines, group drives) allows data to be copied and 
therefore in turn fast commissioning.
