Establishing communication using the Global Drive Control (GDC)

The used bus system must be selected for the communication via the EL100
communication module. System bus−specific settings can be made on the EL100 module
in the "CAN Gateway" applet. The communication module can only be selected via the
system bus configurator.

How to proceed:

1. Start the Global Drive Control (GDC) program.

2. Activate the Options

® Communication menu item.

In the "Selection communication driver" dialog, a selection of communication drivers
available for the communication module is displayed.

Note!

We recommend to select the "OPC" communication driver in preference to the
also available "Systembus (CAN)" communication driver because the latter
causes a longer bus scan (approx. 2 min.).

3. Select "OPC" and click the Parameter... button.

The "OPC" dialog is displayed.
