3 Introduction
The present document describes the VABus/TCP protocol for the CM-VABus/TCP and
CM-VABus/TCP-2P (switch function integrated) communication modules. After connecting VABus/TCP
to the PLC, you can use an a dditional logic connect ion from VA Bus/TCP to t he VPlus softwa re running
on a terminal connected via an Ethernet network.
For VABus/TCP co nnection, the frequency inverter must be equipped with the CM-VABus/TCP or CMVABus/TCP-2P communicatio n module.
The CM-VABus/TCP and CM-VABus/TCP-2P communication modules are separate components and
must be attached to the frequency inverter. This is described in chapter 6.1 “Assembly”.

Ports:
The module supports two logic TCP/IP ports for VABus/TCP communication. Each port can be used for
establishing one logic connection:
• Port #17220: Connection for PLC communication
• Port VPlus: Connection for VPlus
When a PLC starts communicating with a frequency inverter, it creates a TCP/IP source port to send
data to target port #17220 of the frequency inverter. The response of the frequency inverter is sent
by 17220 to this port of the PLC.
VPlus is the software for co nfiguration and ma intenance of BO NFIGLIOLI VEC TRON frequency in verters. It can conne ct wit h a f re que nc y i nvert er whil e it is com mu nica ting with a PLC . VP lus ca n est ab lis h

To send an e-mail message, the frequency inverter needs various information. It must have its own e-
mail address from where the e-mail message is sent. For e-mail transmission, identification by the
SMTP server (user name and password) is required. The recipient of the e-mail message must be
known.
In addition, the local network must be connected to the Internet, i.e. Gateway and DNS server must
be entered correctly. If you have any questions or problems, please contact your local system administrator.

of the two input fields are different, an error message will be displayed.
• All device settings are saved in the module and in the non-permanent memory
of the frequency inverter. Switching of modules from one frequency inverter to
another does not have an effect on the IP settings of the frequency inverter. A
PLC will remain connected with the right frequency inverter after switching of the
module.

The VABus protocol was originally developed for the serial interface (RS232/RS485 ) and adapted to
the CM
integrated in the data block of the TCP/IP protocol. VABus/TCP and VABus use a similar structure. The
handshake procedures and the data representation are different. VA Bus uses HEX
VABus/TCP uses binary data. The protocol structure of VABus/TCP aims at fast processing and min
mum protocol overhead.
Read/write commands and VABus/TCP data are integrated in the TCP/IP data range.
The VABus and VABus/TCP protocol enable operation as a pure Master/Slave system. A PC, a PLC or
any type of computer system is the bus Master.
Two types of requests are used:
Send request (inquiry telegram) for the request for reading parameters in the frequency inverter by
the bus Master.
Enquiry request (select telegram) for handing over parameter values or parameter settings to the
frequency inverter by the bus Master.
Send/positioning requests and send/positioning responses use defined data structures which are arranged in frames. Ea
information for parameter access.
The header byte is divided in 8 control bits, only bits 6 and 7 are used. Bits 0 to 5 are not used a nd
must have value “0”. If one or more of these bits has/have value “1”, the error message “syntax error
in received telegram” will be returned as the response.

Parameter values with decimal places are transferred without decimal point. Depending
on the number of decimal places, the values are multiplied by 10, 100 or 1000.
The number of decimal places for the corresponding parameters is set in the frequency.
In this way it is made sure that the sent parameter values are processed correctly.

The number of data bytes depends on the type of the corresponding parameter. A maximum of 99
data bytes can be transferred.

Example: Frequency value with data type long:

Example: Current value with data type Int:
The value to be transmitted is 10.3 A. The numerical value transmitted in the telegram is 103, which
corresponds to 0x67 in HEX format. Since the data type is int, 4 data bytes are transferred

9 Parameter access
9.1 Handling of datasets / cyclic writing of parameters
The parameter values are accessed based on the parameter number and the required dataset. There
are parameters the values of which are present once (dataset 0) as well as parameters the values of
which are present four times (dataset 1...4). These are used for dataset switching.
If parameters which are present four times in the datasets are set to Dataset = 0, the four datasets
are set to the same transmitted value. A read access with data set = 0 to such parameters is only
successful if all four data se ts are set to the same value. I f this is not the case, an error w ill be signaled.
The values are entered automatically in the EEPROM of the controller. When values are
to be written cyclically, no entries shall be m ade in the EEPROM, as this only allow s a
limited number of write cycles (approx. 1 milli on cycles). When t he number of pe rmissible write cycles is exceeded, the EEPROM will be destroyed.
In order to avoid this, data which is written cyclicall y can be entered in the RAM exclupower failure and have to be written again after Power off/on.
This mechanism is started when the target dataset is increa sed by five when spe cifying
the dataset.

9.2 Handling index parameters / cyclic writing
Index parameters are used for various AGL functions. Here, 16 or 32 indexes are used instead of the
4 data sets. For each function, the individual indexes are addressed separately via an index access
parameter. Via the indexing parameter, you can select if the data is to be written to EEPROM or RAM.
