EtherCAT Interface

7.
7.1
The EtherCAT interface allows a fast transfer of measured values . The controller supports
CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE).
Service Data Objects SDO: All parameters of the controller can thus be read or modified.
Process Data Objects PDO: A PDO telegram is used for real-time transmission of measured values. Individual
objects are not addressed. The content of the previously selected data is transmitted.
The displacement values are transmitted as 32 bit Float values.
7.2
You can not change directly to the EtherCAT interface through the web interface or command. Restart your
controller to do this. Keep in mind also that the setting of the EtherCAT switch is in the correct position, see
