The names of reverse signals (ones that are taken effect when low) are written with a forward slash (/) before the signal abbreviation. For example: 

S-ON = /S-ON       P-CON = /P-CON 

Parameters are referenced as PnXXX where XXX refers to a unique number. Some parameters have multiple functions encoded within a single parameter. For these parameters, sub-indices are used to reference the multiple functions.
For example:
 Pn112 Speed Feedforward - is a single value without any sub-indices.
 Pn000 Basic Function Selection 0 - is made up of 4 sub-indexes describing different functions.
- Pn000.0 Servo ON
- Pn000.1 Forward Drive Prohibit Input (P-OT)
- Pn000.2 Reverse Drive Prohibit Input (N-OT)
- Pn000.3 Reserved parameter (Do not change)
