8.1.2 The structure of net data
Information which, for example, a SIMATIC S5 control unit (= master)
sends to a drive (= slave) or the drive sends to the control unit is placed
in the net-data area of each telegram.
8.1.2.1 General structure of the net-data block
The net-data block is divided into two areas:
♦ the PKW (parameter ID value) range
♦ the PZD (process data) range
The structure of the net data in the USS-protocol telegram is shown
below.

PKW:

PZD:
Process data
(process-data area)
♦ The PKW area relates to the handling of the parameter ID value
(PKW) interface. The PKW interface is not a physical interface but a
mechanism which handles parameter transfer between two
communication partners (e.g. control unit and drive). This involves,
for example, reading and writing parameter values and reading
parameter descriptions and associated texts.
All tasks which are performed via the PKW interface essentially
involve operator control and visualization, service and diagnosis.
♦ The PZD area contains the signals required for the automation
system:
• Control word(s) and setpoint(s) from the master to the slave
• Status word(s) and actual value(s) from the slave to the master.

The two areas together make up the net data block. This structure
applies to telegrams from the master to the slave and vice versa.
