Product Overview Pulse width modulation (PWM) The Beckhoff terminals and box modules integrate compact PWM output stages in the smallest of designs. PWM output stages control the output current through pulse width modulation (PWM) of the supply voltage. This means that the full supply voltage is activated or deactivated at the output. The duty cycle (pulse width) is modified, but not the voltage level.

The controller has 5 ms for compensating a current pulse of 10 %. The steepness of the current rise is limited by the controller parameters and the inductance.

Not every EtherCAT device must have a CoE list. Simple I/O modules without dedicated processor usually have no variable parameters and therefore no CoE list. If a device has a CoE list, it is shown in the TwinCAT System Manager as a separate tab with a listing of the elements: EP8309-1022 Version: 2.4...
Page 46
Changes in the local CoE list of the terminal are lost if the terminal is replaced. If a terminal is replaced with a new Beckhoff terminal, it will have the factory 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 processed whenever the EtherCAT fieldbus is started.

Associated and synonymous with each revision there is usually a description (ESI, EtherCAT Slave Information) in the form of an XML file, which is available for download from the Beckhoff web site. From 2014/01 the revision is shown on the outside of the IP20 terminals, see Fig. “EL2872 with revision 0022 and serial number 01200815”.
Version identification of IP67 modules The serial number/ data code 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.
8.3.3 Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) The Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) is increasingly being applied to Beckhoff products to uniquely identify the product. The BIC is represented as a Data Matrix Code (DMC, code scheme ECC200), the content is based on the ANSI standard MH10.8.2-2016.
Page 85
Fig. 32: Example DMC 1P072222SBTNk4p562d71KEL1809 Q1 51S678294 An important component of the BIC is the Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN, position 2). The BTN is a unique serial number consisting of eight characters that will replace all other serial number systems at Beckhoff in the long term (e.g.
Electronic access to the BIC (eBIC) Electronic BIC (eBIC) The Beckhoff Identification Code (BIC) is applied to the outside of Beckhoff products in a visible place. If possible, it should also be electronically readable. The interface that the product can be electronically addressed by is crucial for the electronic readout.
