  • Page 3: Introduction

    Introduction This quick start guide describes an approach how you can configure the 2311 via Beckhoff TwinCAT using a Beckhoff PCI-Ethernet Card. Please note that the samples here cannot be directly used in your production line because they have beed extremely simplified to reach a better understanding. Therefore, you may have to complete them by checking of status, error, length values etc.
  • Page 4: Creating New Project

    Creating new project  Start the TwinCAT XAE Shell and click on New TwinCAT Project (a) (or via File → New Project)  Select TwinCAT XAE Project, assign a project a name (b) and click OK of 20...
  • Page 5  Go to TwinCAT (a), select Show Real Time Ethernet Compatible Devices… (b) and look for your a EtherCAT Master device under Compatible devices* (c). Afterwards click the Install button (d). *You can find information of supported nenwork controllers on: https://infosys.beckhoff.com/english.php?content=../content/1033/tc3_overview/9309844363.html&id of 20...
  • Page 6: Installation Of Esi Description Files

    Note: Please make sure that your ESI file is compatible to the field bus firmware in the 2311.  Copy the ESI file into directory C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Config\Io\OnboardIo and additionally into C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Config\Io\EtherCAT Note: you will find the corresponding ESI files on burster.com Note: If you use the TwinCAT 2 The ESI directory would be C:\TwinCAT\Io\EtherCAT Scan EtherCAT devices ...
  • Page 7  At this point you are to perform a device search by confirming the Scan for boxes request or later by right-clicking on the found EtherCAT device and selecting Scan in the context menu as shown below:  If the TwinCAT was not able to find the ESI file, confirm the question to use online description and after a while you should be able to see the 2311 device in the project tree: ...

  • Page 9: Create A Sample Program

    Create a sample program In this section, you will learn how to create a simple PLC program to perform a resistance measurement and read the measurement result via PDO (Process Data Object). You will need to refer to section 7 EtherCAT data protocol in 2311 EtherCAT operation manual to understand the meaning of input bytes.

  • Page 14  Goto PLC → Login: and if asked, confirm that program should be downloaded into the controller  Press the F5 key or click on the green start symbol to start the program execution When the resistomat performs a new measurement (measStart = TRUE) it resets its output ready, PLC stops after that the measurement by setting measStart = FALSE.
  • Page 15: Further Examples

    Further Examples In this chapter, we will perform read & write operations on SDO (Service Data Objects). These are described in section 8 SDO – Service Data Objects of the 2311 EtherCAT operation manual. 5.1 Read and Write of ‘real’ data types Example 2: Set and Get the reference temperature value (Index 0x2045, Subindex 12) This example shows you how to write and read the reference temperature value.

  • Page 19: Read Of 'String' Data Types

     Start the program execution with the F5 key or via PLC → Start and go step for step (F10) through the whole program until you rich the last line. Check if the witten und read values are identical: 5.2 Read of ‘string’ data types Example 3: Read the serial number of 2311 (Index 0x2030, Subindex 11): ...
