EN 61000-6 for heavy industrial EMC protection, as well as receiving an emissions certificate. As the ECAT IO Series must be used with an EtherCAT master, we recommend using ADLINK products, such as the PCIe-833x series and SuperCAT, for the best performance, easiest integra- tion and potential for function expansion.
Wiring Cable: The cables connecting the EtherCAT master and slave I/O modules are standard 100 Base/TX with RJ45 connec- tors, which are identical with commercial Ethernet cables. 1.1.1 Functional Diagram 16-Position rotary switch 16-Position rotary switch MDI0 RJ45 MDI1 RJ45 G, G, G, R Power, Run, EEP_DONE, Error LED *4...
