The default setting for Service Type is “Custom,” enabling entry of a Service Code not available from the Service Type pull-down

In this example, Output Current is a 32-bit floating point parameter so the Data Type field must be set to “REAL” when creating
the controller tag. To read a 32-bit DINT parameter, set the tag Data Type field to “DINT.” For a 16-bit parameter, set the Data
Type field to “INT.” Refer to the drive documentation to determine the size of the parameter.
