All the components are supplied in particular hardware and software configurations appropriate for the application. Modifications to hardware or software configurations other than those described in the documentation are not permitted, and nullify the liability of Beckhoff Automation GmbH & Co. KG. Personnel qualification This description is only intended for trained specialists in control, automation and drive engineering who are familiar with the applicable national standards.
Production lot/batch number/serial number/date code/D number The serial number for Beckhoff IO devices is usually the 8-digit number printed on the device or on a sticker. The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and therefore refers to a whole production batch, without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.

Foreword Non-reactive Bus Terminals Use of non-reactive Bus or EtherCAT Terminals in safety applications If a Bus or EtherCAT Terminal is described as non-reactive, this means that the consecutive termi- nal behaves passively in a safety application (e.g. in the case of the all-pole switch-off of a potential group).
Foreword ◦ No switching of loads with a separate power supply Loads that have their own power supply must not be switched by standard terminals, since in this case feedback via the load cannot be ruled out. Fig. 9: Negative example – active load ◦...
Foreword Fig. 10: Ground connection of the load: correct (K1) and incorrect (K2) ◦ If either a) the ground of the load is not fed back to the terminal or b) the ground is not safely switched but connected permanently then fault exclusions are necessary with regard to a short-circuit with external potential in order to be able to achieve Cat.
Foreword Fig. 11: Short circuit fault exclusion through protected cable laying ◦ a) Possibility 1: Load connection via separate sheathed cables The non-safely switched potential of the standard terminal may not be conducted together with other potential-conducting cores inside the same sheathed cable. (Fault exclusion, see EN ISO 13849-2:2013, Table D.4) ◦...

EtherCAT devices from Beckhoff. Recommended cables Suitable cables for the connection of EtherCAT devices can be found on the Beckhoff website! E-Bus supply A bus coupler can supply the EL terminals added to it with the E-bus system voltage of 5 V; a coupler is thereby loadable up to 2 A as a rule (see details in respective device documentation).
Basics communication Fig. 48: System manager current calculation NOTE Malfunction possible! The same ground potential must be used for the E-Bus supply of all EtherCAT terminals in a terminal block! EtherCAT State Machine The state of the EtherCAT slave is controlled via the EtherCAT State Machine (ESM). Depending upon the state, different functions are accessible or executable in the EtherCAT slave.
Basics communication Init After switch-on the EtherCAT slave in the Init state. No mailbox or process data communication is possible. The EtherCAT master initializes sync manager channels 0 and 1 for mailbox communication. Pre-Operational (Pre-Op) During the transition between Init and Pre-Op the EtherCAT slave checks whether the mailbox was initialized correctly.
Page 68
Basics communication The order is specified in 2 levels via hexadecimal numbering: (main)index, followed by subindex. The value ranges are • Index: 0x0000 …0xFFFF (0...65535 • SubIndex: 0x00…0xFF (0...255 A parameter localized in this way is normally written as 0x8010:07, with preceding "x" to identify the hexadecimal numerical range and a colon between index and subindex.
Page 69
Changes in the local CoE list of the terminal are lost if the terminal is replaced. If a terminal is re- placed with a new Beckhoff terminal, it will have the default settings. It is therefore advisable to link all changes in the CoE list of an EtherCAT slave with the Startup list of the slave, which is pro- cessed whenever the EtherCAT fieldbus is started.
