10.4 Changing the fieldbus using DS6
Fieldbus communication is determined by the firmware. The SC6 drive controller is delivered with the firmware version in
the required fieldbus variant. You can subsequently change the fieldbus using the DriveControlSuite commissioning
software.
For warranty reasons, when changing the fieldbus, you are prompted to notify our service department by email about the
change. The information relevant for this can be transferred directly from DriveControlSuite to your email program.
Information
Changing the fieldbus variant of the drive controller without contacting our Service department voids any warranty claims.
In order to perform a fieldbus change, you must connect your PC and the drive controller to the network.

update.
