2 DCS 500 Software Description
Software Overview
Parameter Sets Two parameter sets are available for two different applications in a
drive.
Example: A digital input can be used to select 1 of 2 parameter
sets. Parameter set 1 is for motor set 1 and parameter set 2 is for
motor set 2. A digital output is used to control external hardware
which selects the actual motor 1 or motor 2 connection.

The converter program is stored in a FPROM memory circuit
(D33).The parameters for the converter and the field exciter are
stored in one FPROM memory circuit (D35). The circuits are in-
stalled on the control board SCDS-CON-2.
