Object description and parameterization

EtherCAT XML Device Description

The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We recommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and installing it according to installation instructions.

Parameterization via the CoE list (CAN over EtherCAT)

The terminal is parameterized via the CoE - Online tab (double-click on the respective object) or via the Process Data tab (allocation of PDOs). When using/manipulating the CoE parameters, observe the general CoE notes:removed link: general CoE notes:
- Keep a startup list if components have to be replaced
- Differentiation between online/offline dictionary, existence of current XML description
- Use "CoE reload" for resetting changes

Standard objects

The standard objects have the same meaning for all EtherCAT slaves.
