Parameters and Variables Overview

Setup parameter values control the operation and configuration of an S200 and read only variables give status information about the present operation of the drive. The below defines the three types of parameters and variables.

NV Parameter - A type of variable stored in the non-volatile (NV) permanent memory on the drive. See NV Parameters for a complete list and descriptions.
Status Variable - Gives information about the present state of the drive. Most of these variables are Read-Only, meaning that you cannot directly change them; their value is controlled by the drive itself, for example, measured shaft speed. See Status and Control Variables for a complete list and descriptions.
Control Variable - A variable which controls a particular function on the drive. Control Variables are volatile (erased when power is removed) and are initialized at fixed default values every time that the drive is turned on. See Status and Control Variables for a complete list and descriptions.

For more details on the memory structure of the drive and how values are initialized, please see the related sections (listed below).

The functionality of the drive may be updated from time to time, which may add to these lists.
