DRIVECOM STANDARD ADAPTED TO THE ATV58 DRIVE CONTROLLER
The ATV58 control process using the communication options conforms to 
the DRIVECOM standard state chart. The DRIVECOM standard state 
chart, the DRIVECOM standard, and the bypass for the DRIVECOM 
standard are explained in the ATV58 Register Access Guide for 
Communication Networks, VVDED397058US.
Communication Fault Detection 
Setting CMI (word W402) bit 14 to 1 disables communication loss 
detection. As a result, loss of communication does not cause the drive 
controller to generate a fault. The drive controller continues its present 
operation. Alternate control paths must be provided for starting, stopping, 
and controlling the motor. No control commands are received during loss 
of communication.
Controlling the Drive Controller—State Machine
The following Word designations can be used to initiate communication 
to verify proper connection.
“Controlword” : 6040h
“Statusword” : 6041h
Enabling Periodic Data
“ProcDatEnab” : 6002h
The assignment of periodic data to the drive controller is enabled by the 
default factory setting. Setting 6002h to 1 enables the periodic data. 
Setting 6002h to 0 disables the periodic data.
LOSS OF CONTROL
Provide alternate control paths (Start, Stop, and Speed):
• When disabling communication loss detection.
• When motor control is required while a communication fault exists.
Failure to follow this instruction can result in death, serious 
injury, or equipment damage.
