Commissioning
EL500x118 Version: 3.6
On commissioning the following parameters must be set:
• Settings according to CoE [}118]
• DC mode [}121]
• Process data [}121]
CoE settings
The terminal is parameterized via the CoE Online tab [}101] (double-click on the respective object, see
below) or via the Process Data tab [}98] (allocation of PDOs).
Depending on the firmware version/terminal type the EL500x settings must be implemented in CoE range
0x4066 [}124] and following or range 0x8010 [}127].
• EL5001 up to FW10 only have indices 0x4060 [}124]ff and must be parameterized here.
• EL5001 from FW11 and EL5002 have index 0x8010 [}127] (0x8000 [}126] / 0x8010 [}127]), which
should be used for this purpose. Range 0x4060 [}124]ff can continue to be used. Modifications in one
section are automatically copied into the corresponding other section.
Parameterization via the CoE list (CAN over EtherCAT)
Please note the following general CoE information when using/manipulating the CoE parameters:
- Maintain the startup list of the terminal in case it has to be replaced.
- Distinguish between online/offline dictionary, check for existence of a current XML device descrip-
tion.
- Use "CoE reload [}166]" for resetting changes.
EtherCAT XML Device Description
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We rec-
ommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and in-
stalling it according to installation instructions.
In TwinCAT 2.11 the online CoE list is structured as follows:
