Parameter 0.00
Parameter 0.00 is a special read–write parameter
that is used for the following:
• Saving new values given to parameters
• Controlling security
• Enabling macro configurations
These functions are controlled by the user entering
specific values, as shown below:

2.5 How macro configurations
change the arrangement of
the Menu 0 parameters
Note
Do not confuse the term Macro with the
term Menu. Menu 0 contains parameters;
macro configurations re-define some of
these parameters to perform specific
functions. Menu 0 always exists, but is
affected by the macro configuration that is
enabled.
Only one macro configuration can be
enabled at a time.
Menu 0 contains 51 parameters which are arranged
in four groups, as shown in Figure 2–8.
