AMT58x-EC EtherCAT®
If devices are not already connected to the network it is necessary to
use the XML file supplied with the encoder: AMT58-xxx-13x14-EC
(see at www.datalogic.com). At the same address you can also
download the most recent files to update both the firmware and the
EEProm of the encoder. For older versions of the files please contact
Datalogic Automation s.r.l. After Sales Service Dept. For any
information on the firmware upgrade procedure refer to the section
"5.7 Upgrade firmware" on page 26. For any information on the
EEProm upgrade procedure refer to the section "5.6 EEProm
upgrade" on page 21).
WARNING
Before installing the XML file please check that it is compatible with
the firmware version and the EEProm version of the device; the XML
file version, the firmware version and the EEProm version must
always comply. For example: if the firmware version is H1_S4
(Hardware version: 1; Software version: 4), it is mandatory that the
EEProm version is S4, therefore you must then install the XML file
version V4. For a description EEProm upgrade procedure please
refer to the section "5.6 EEProm upgrade" on page 21. For a
description of the firmware upgrade procedure please refer to the
section "5.7 Firmware upgrade" on page 26.
WARNING
It is mandatory that in an EtherCAT network all devices are provided
with the same version of the firmware, EEProm and XML file. So
when you need to replace an old encoder installed in your network,
then you must either upgrade all the encoders in the network to the
last version compatible with the new encoder; or you must
downgrade the new encoder to the older version compatible with the
encoders already installed in the network.
If you want to know the firmware version of a device, press the Box
(AMT58-ECAT) item in the left pane of the TwinCAT System
Manager main window: some tabbed pages for configuring and
managing the device will appear in the right pane. Enter the CoE -
Online page and refer to the indexes Hardware version and Software
version.
