EtherCAT gateways

EtherCAT gateways support multiple submodules.

The first module or basic module is loaded immediately. Create the modules for the process data and parameterize them on the master side of the corresponding gateway.

Not all features of an EtherCAT gateway can be used on the ER9320-0022.

EL6631-0010

The PROFINET device terminal makes it possible to connect two PROFINET networks with each other. You can set the default station name and the IP settings via parameterization data (GSDML).

Note that the complete maximum data length of the EL6631-0010 cannot be used. The length depends on other EtherCAT devices that are connected to the ER9320-0022.

EL6731-0010

The PROFIBUS slave terminal enables communication with a PROFIBUS master. Set the PROFIBUS address using the terminal's parameter settings (in the GSDML). Only process data can be exchanged.

EL6692

The EtherCAT slave terminal enables communication with an EtherCAT master. Only process data can be exchanged.

EL6652-0010

The EtherNet/IP^TM slave terminal enables communication with an EtherNet/IP^TM master. Set the IP address and the subnet mask via the parameters (in the GSDML file) of the EL6652-0010. Only process data can be exchanged.
