Identity object
Sub-index 0
Access: RO
Default:
4
PDO Mappable: No
Description:
The number of the last sub-index in this object.
Sub-index 1: Vendor ID
Access: RO
Default:
0x000000F9 (249)
PDO Mappable: No
This will contain the EtherCAT Technology Group vendor ID for Control Techniques. This is the
Description:
same value as the vendor ID used for SM-EtherCAT and SM-CANopen.
Sub-index 2: Product Code
Access: RO
Default:
0x01mmvvtt
PDO Mappable: No
Description:
This will contain a value identifying the drive type, variant, and mode.
Sub-index 3: Revision Number
Access: RO
Default:
0xaaaabbbb
PDO Mappable: No
This will contain the version of the Control Techniques EtherCAT interface implemented.
Note: This is not the same as the EtherCAT option module software version number as the
interface is defined to cover both the EtherCAT and Safety Modules. This number is used by
Description:
the EtherCAT master to find the matching ESI file. The Revision number is made of two parts,
aaaa & bbbb. If aaaa changes this is a major change to the interface (and the Object
dictionary). If bbbb changes it is a minor change.
Sub-index 4: Serial Number
Access: RO
Default:
0
PDO Mappable: No
Description:
Lower 32-bit value of the drive serial number.
The product code, a 32 bit value, is made up as follows:
•
Byte 3: Generation - 0x01
•
Byte 2: Drive Mode - derived from drive parameter 11.084
•
Byte 1: Drive Variant/Derivative - derived from drive parameter 11.028.
•
Byte 0: Drive Type; 2 = High performance, 3 = General Purpose.
The Product Code includes the Drive Mode. Therefore, changing mode will mean the product Code
will change. If the PLC checks the product code
this will lead to loss of connection if the drive mode changes. To avoid this, the EtherCAT parameter
S.00.049 should be set to "Mode Agnostic".
When set to "Mode Agnostic", byte 2 will always be zero.
If parameter S.00.049 is set to either "M200 override" or "M300 override" and the drive type is
general purpose, the product code reported will be either 0x01xx0303 or 0x01xx0503 respectively
