CiA402 profile
The CiA402 drive profile offers functions that are required for motion control. It standardizes the communication and behavior of different drives. The CiA402 drive profile is often used especially for direct control of the inverter from an external PLC with motion control functionality and EtherCAT® master. The CiA402 drive profile offers standardized functions such as cyclic synchronous torque (CST), cyclic synchronous velocity (CSV) or cyclic synchronous position (CSP).
