ECAT-2011H EtherCAT Slave Modules User Manual English Ver. 1.1,Dec. 2018 WARRANTY All products manufactured by ICP DAS are warranted against defective materials for a period of one year from the date of delivery to the original purchaser. WARNING ICP DAS assumes no liability for damages consequent to the use of this product.
All the modules can be deployed in the network topologies such as star, line or ring. The ECAT-2011H is built in 8-ch differential inputs or 16-ch single-ended analog inputs by software selectable. It has passed and verified by the conformance test tool, therefore eligible EtherCAT Master or configurator can manipulate it simply and implement your various applications easily.
ECAT-2011H EtherCAT Slave I/O module 1.1 Package List The shipping package includes the following items: Quick Start ECAT-2011H If any of these items is missing or damaged, please contact your local distributor for more information. Keep the shipping materials and overall package in case you want to NOTE ship the module back in the future.
2. EtherCAT Interface DC Power Input Connector The “+Vs” and “GND” pins are used for the power supply applies to all types of ECAT-2011H module. The valid power voltage range is from +10 to +30 V The definition of “F.G.” (Frame Ground): Electronic circuits are constantly vulnerable to Electrostatic Discharge (ESD), which becomes worse in a continental climate area.

Once the power is connected, the “PWR” LED should be illuminated in red. Once the Ethernet link is detected, the “IN” LED should be flash in green. Once the ECAT-2011H connected to EtherCAT Master, the “RUN” LED should be illuminated in red.
C:\TwinCAT\Io\EtherCAT Step 2 Automatic Scanning The EtherCAT system must be in a safe, de-energized state before the ECAT-2011H module is connected to the EtherCAT network! Switch on the operating power supply, launch the TwinCAT System Manager (Config mode), and scan in the devices, as illustrated in the Figure 3-2.1 below.
