BICO interconnection

Introduction
Each drive unit contains a large number of interconnectable input and output variables as
well as internal control variables.
BICO technology ( binector connector technology) allows the drive to be adapted to a wide
variety of conditions.
Digital and analog signals, which can be connected freely by means of BICO parameters,
are identified by the prefix BI, BO, CI, or CO in their parameter name.
These parameters are identified accordingly in the parameter list or in the function diagrams.
There are:
• Binectors (digital), with
• Connectors (analog), with
Interconnecting signals using BICO technology
To interconnect two signals, a BICO input parameter (signal sink) must be assigned to the
required BICO output parameter (signal source).
