Commissioning
During commissioning, the EtherCAT master operates as gateway to access from the Engineer-
ing PC to the slaves.
In the following, the required steps are described to control the device as EtherCAT slave.
Preconditions
The inverter is networked as EtherCAT slave to an EtherCAT master and, if necessary, fur-
•
ther EtherCAT devices.
See "Typical topologies" under:
The entire wiring has already been checked for completeness, short circuit and earth fault.
•
All EtherCAT devices are supplied with voltage and are switched on.
•
An Engineering PC with installed »PLC Designer« is connected to the master.
•
Download »PLC Designer«
•
A »PLC Designer« project with current device description files for EtherCAT is available.
•
Download XML/ESI files for Lenze devices
•
The files are installed via the device repository of the »PLC Designer« (menu command
•
"Tools à Device repository").
