Equipment Characteristics in EtherCAT Network EQUIPMENT CHARACTERISTICS IN ETHERCAT NETWORK Following they are presented the main characteristics for the EtherCAT communication accessory for CFW11 frequency inverter. It allows the equipment to operate as slave for the EtherCAT communication. It has two Ethernet ports, which allows to connect several equipments in sequence or in a ring topology.
The EtherCAT communication allows different protocols to be used in the application layer. For frequency inverter CFW11, the CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE) device profile is available, where the CANopen protocol is applied to EtherCAT. Different communication objects available to CANopen are also used via EtherCAT, like Service Data Objects (SDO), Process Data Objects (PDO) and the Object Dictionary structure to manage the parameters.

Use clamps on the main grounding point, allowing better contact surface between the cable shield and ground. Avoid the cable connection on multiple grounding points, especially where there are grounds with different potentials. Pass signal cables and communication cable in dedicated pathways. Prevent the passage of these cables next to power cables. CFW11 | 11...

Indicates the index of the transmission PDO selected for communicate with the equipment. The device has 4 transmit PDOs, responsible for sending data to the master, but only one can be active for communication. Each TxPDO has a default mapping, but the master can also change the PDO mapping as desired. CFW11 | 19...
Once in the operational state, the master must send telegrams to update the operating data at regular intervals. This parameter indicates the time between the last two data updates, allowing user to monitor the period for execution of this function. CFW11 | 20...
Network Operation NETWORK OPERATION Following it shows operating characteristics of the CFW11 frequency inverter using EtherCAT interface. ETHERCAT COMMUNICATION ARCHITECTURE The following figure presents the CFW11 frequency inverter architecture for network data exchange. Figure 6.1: EtherCAT communication architecture The application layer protocol used by the EtherCAT is based on CANopen DS301 protocol, called CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE).
