Page 12: Assigning Profinet Device Names To The Eks
Application EKS Integration of EKS with PROFINET interface in BECKHOFF TwinCAT 3 7.4. Assigning PROFINET device names to the EKS There are two ways of assigning a device name to the EKS. Either using the EKS web browser (see manual) or using TwinCAT. In the following we show name assignment using TwinCAT. - Page 13 Application EKS Integration of EKS with PROFINET interface in BECKHOFF TwinCAT 3 Select the EKS from the list. Enter the device name in Stationname and accept using Set Stationname. Figure 12: Assigning device name TIP! As an alternative to MAC address comparison, you can use Start Signal to see whether you have selected the correct subscriber.

Page 14: Using The Beckhoff Library
The library is intended to assist you during programming. The library contains pre-prepared data that you can then use. Open the page with the EKS applications in the download area at www.euchner.com and download the library for the EKS. 8.1. - Page 15 Next you must add the library to the project. In Solution Explorer, right-click References and then choose Add library. Figure 14: Adding library to the project Select the library prepared by EUCHNER.

Page 16: Calling The Library And Description Of The Block Interface
Opening the Input Assistant You will find the library on the Categories tab. Select Function Blocks. You will find the EUCHNER library in the window on the right. You can select two function blocks from the library. EKS_Read is required to read the Electronic-Key data and EKS_Write to write data to the Electronic-Key. - Page 17 Application EKS Integration of EKS with PROFINET interface in BECKHOFF TwinCAT 3 The blocks must be instanced. In our example we assign the name EKS_Read_01 for the data type EKS_Read. Then you can repeat this process (step 1 to 3) for the data type EKS_Write. Figure 18: Declaring the data type The program must now be built.

Page 19: Linking The Input And Output Areas In Eks
Application EKS Integration of EKS with PROFINET interface in BECKHOFF TwinCAT 3 9. Linking the input and output areas in EKS The read (Inputs) and write (Outputs) modules must be linked using the variables generated in chapter 8.2.1. In Solution Explorer, open the tree as shown below. Double-click the read (Inputs) module to open the properties. Figure 21: EKS read (Inputs) module in the hardware configuration AP000240-01-01/19 (Application) - Page 20 Application EKS Integration of EKS with PROFINET interface in BECKHOFF TwinCAT 3 In the properties for the read (Inputs) module, click the Linked to... button . Figure 22: Properties of the read (Inputs) module Select the input variable and click OK. To link the output variables, undertake steps 1-3 again for the write (Outputs) module that is to be found in Solution Explorer in Term 3 (Write: 128 bytes).
