Designation of devices

A name can be assigned to both the device and its standard process data slots. The names for the safety slots are assigned automatically and cannot be changed.

Since devices are located directly below the EtherCAT^® bus and the name of the devices is no longer used, it is recommended to use the device type (e.g. "MOVI_C_MOVIDRIVE") as the name for the devices.

Since the standard process data slot represents the actual drive on the inverter, we recommend assigning a unique name.

If you want to use the automatic axis replacement function in the event of an inverter replacement, the name of the standard process data slot must be identical to the name of the device in MOVISUITE^®.
