  • Page 9: Version Identification Of Ethercat Devices

    Production lot/batch number/serial number/date code/D number The serial number for Beckhoff IO devices is usually the 8-digit number printed on the device or on a sticker. The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and therefore refers to a whole production batch, without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.

    This can be achieved, for example, through adherence to load-specific standards. ◦ Option 1: Ground feedback and all-pole disconnection The ground connection of the connected load must be fed back to the safely switched ground of the respective output terminal. Version: 5.2 EL20xx, EL2124...

    If solution option 1 is not feasible, the ground feedback and all-pole disconnection can be dispensed with if the danger of feedback due to a cable short-circuit can be excluded by other measures. These measures, which can be implemented alternatively, are described in the following sections. EL20xx, EL2124 Version: 5.2...

    Not every EtherCAT device must have a CoE list. Simple I/O modules without dedicated processor usually have no variable parameters and therefore no CoE list. If a device has a CoE list, it is shown in the TwinCAT System Manager as a separate tab with a listing of the elements: EL20xx, EL2124 Version: 5.2...

  • Page 69 Changes in the local CoE list of the terminal are lost if the terminal is replaced. If a terminal is re- placed with a new Beckhoff terminal, it will have the default settings. It is therefore advisable to link all changes in the CoE list of an EtherCAT slave with the Startup list of the slave, which is pro- cessed whenever the EtherCAT fieldbus is started.
