The 
acyclic channel MSCY_C2 (see diagram above) is used exclusively for the start-up and servicing of 
DriveMonitor. 
 
4.5.2.1  Mechanisms for processing parameters via the PROFIBUS: 
The PKW mechanism (with PPO types 1, 2 and 5 and for the two acyclic channels MSAC_C1 and MSAC_C2) 
can be used to read and write parameters. A parameter request job is sent to the drive for this purpose. When 
the job has been executed, the drive sends back a response. Until it receives this response, the master must 
not issue any new requests, i.e. any job with different contents, but must repeat the old job. 
The parameter section in the telegram always contains at least 4 words: 
PKE IND
Parameter identifier Index Parameter value 1
PWE1 (H word)
Paramter value 2
PWE2 (L word)
 
 
Details about the telegram structure can be found in Section 4.5.6, "Structure of request/response telegrams“. 
The 
parameter identifier PKE contains the number of the relevant parameter and an identifier which 
determines the action to be taken (e.g. "read value"). 
The 
index IND contains the number of the relevant index value (equals 0 in the case of nonindexed 
parameters). The IND structure differs depending on the communication mode: 
-  Definition in the PPOs (structure of IND with cyclical communication via PPOs) 
-  Definition for acyclical channels MSAC_C1 and MSAC_C2 (structure of IND with acyclical communication) 
The array subindex (referred to simply as "subindex" in the PROFIBUS profile) is an 8-bit value which is 
transferred in the 
high-order byte (bits 8 to 15) of the index (IND) when data are transferred cyclically via 
PPOs
. The low-order byte (bits 0 to 7) is not defined in the DVA profile. The low-order byte of the index word is 
used in the PPO of CBP2 to select the correct number range (bit7 = Page Select bit) in the case of parameter 
numbers of > 1999). 
In the case of 
acyclical data traffic (MSAC_C1, MSAC_C2) the number of the index is transferred in the low-
order 
byte (bits 0 to 7). Bit 15 in the high-order byte is used as the Page Select bit. This assignment complies 
with the USS specification. 
Index value 255 (request applies to all index values) is meaningful only for acyclical transmission via MSAC_C1. 
The maximum data block length is 206 bytes with this transmission mode.
