EL9930 - PROFIsafe segment end terminal

The EL9930 EtherCAT Terminal is a standard EtherCAT Terminal. The terminal is required in order to
implement permissible PROFIsafe master and slave configurations together with a TwinSAFE Logic
component that supports this function. This is currently the EL6910 TwinSAFE Logic terminal, for example,
which supports the PROFIsafe master and PROFIsafe slave function.

The EL9930 registers itself as two EtherCAT slaves when the I/O configuration is scanned. Once as
EL9930-0000 and once as EL9930-0001. Hence, it is possible to set which PROFIsafe data need to be
buffered for both data directions.
EL9930 Version: 2.0.0
