Description

The ALIAS command is used to assign a symbolic name to an amplifier. If the PC setup software is used, this name appears in the title bar of all open parameter windows.
In Multi-Drive mode (parameterizing several amplifiers that are grouped through the CAN bus) the ALIAS name can be used to give a clear assignment of the parameter window to the corresponding amplifier.
