Electronic identification plate The electronic identification plate contains all specific data of the drive and can be read directly from the Beckhoff drive system for au- tomatic parameterization. Daisy Chain The ASI8100 is an independent EtherCAT slave and can be con- nected directly to other EtherCAT slaves via Daisy Chain.
For this purpose, the ASI8100 is equipped with a magnetic encoder that enables controlled operation (FOC). If the ASI8100 is used in areas with magnetic fields (e.g. caused by per- manent magnets or solenoids), only controlled operation is possible.
