Software Introduction

DIADesigner-AX, an IEC 61131-3 programming tool for Delta's new generation motion controller (AX series)
adopts a large number of applied instructions, especially Motion library with a multilingual environment where
users can switch the interface language according to need and a user-friendly interface providing users a
convenient and efficient development environment.
For details on operation, refer to DIADesigner-AX Software Manual.
5.2 Adding ASRTU-EC16AP1TA and Right-Side Extension
Modules
There are two methods of adding ASRTU-EC16AP1TA and right-side extension modules to the EtherCAT
master configuration. The first method is to manually add ASRTU-EC16AP1TA first and then extension
modules. The second method is to use the auto-scan function of the software to add ASRTU-EC16AP1TA and
its right-side extension modules.
5.2.1 Manually Adding ASRTU-EC16AP1TA and Right-Side Extension
Modules
1. Right-click "EtherCAT_Master_SoftMotion" on the left-side list of the DIADesigner-AX software and then
click "Add Device..." from the drop-down menu that pops up.
