Data transmission

C.1.1

Procedure

Caution
In special application cases, access using CI commands
enables parameterising and commissioning of the MTR-DCI
directly via the RS232 interface, but this method is not
suitable for real-time communication, e.g. for control
tasks. Control of the MTR-DCI via RS232 requires also:

– a risk assessment by the user,

– ambient conditions free of interference,

– safeguarding of data transfer, such as by the host's con-

trol program.

You should use the control panel or the FCT for commis-
sioning and parameterisation.

Note that controlling the MTR-DCI via RS232 is not in
accordance with the intended use of the device.

Warning
Injury to people or damage to property.

CI commands provide full access to the internal variables
of the servo controller. Incorrect operation may cause the
controller to react unexpectedly and the motor may start
up in an uncontrolled manner.

Only use the CI commands if you already have experi-
ence of using Service Data Objects.

Read about using the objects in the CiA Draft Standard
402 before you use the CI commands of the Command
Interpreter of the MTR-DCI.

For data transmission you will require a conventional terminal
program or the CI terminal of the MTR-DCI plug-in in the Festo
Configuration Tool.
