If, on the other hand, EtherCAT
routers and also EtherCAT
protocol is packed in a UDP/IP datagram. Thus, every controller that has an
Ethernet Protocol stack can address EtherCAT
network response times are thus minimally limited because the UDP datagram is
always only unpacked in the first station.
The allocation of data in the process image can be freely configured. Depending
on the configuration, the data are copied directly to the desired location in the
process image which has a logical address space of 4 gigabytes.

Configuration

The configuration of master boards with individual station data is not necessary in
order to construct a connection between SPS and the fieldbus devices. The real
layout is quasi recreated in the configuration tool for this. The necessary software
for configuration, start-up and diagnosis of the EtherCAT
delivery of the master cards, PC cards or is also in the master software used in
EtherCAT
The data required by WAGO EtherCAT
through the integration of ESI files (EtherCAT
device profiles in the configuration software.
The device profiles describe the application parameters and the functional
behavior of the devices including the device-class specific finite status machines.
The device manufacturer supplies an individual ESI file for each EtherCAT
device. During configuration, the data, objects, and parameters defined in the ESI
file are selected in order to assign them to the actual layout and the EtherCAT
devices.
The device classes for EtherCAT
already exist, e.g. for I/O devices, drives, or valves. Likewise, the parameters and
tools for them are already known from other device profiles.
Therefore, instead of separate device profiles, EtherCAT
interfaces for existing device profiles. By adapting the previous fieldbus to
EtherCAT
all for the customer.
