Addressing modes and FMMUs
There are a number of different addressing modes which can be
used by the master to communicate with EtherCAT® slaves. As a
full slave, RECA-01 supports the following addressing modes:
Position addressing
The slave device is addressed via its physical position in the
EtherCAT® segment.
Node addressing
The slave device is addressed via a configured node address
assigned by the master during the start-up phase.
