5.4 Integration into the NC configuration
(Master: TwinCAT 2.11)
Note
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.
Integration into the NC can be accomplished as follows:
• The terminal must already have been inserted manually under I/O devices or have been scanned in by
the system (see section "Inserting the terminal in the EtherCAT Terminal network [}103]").
• First add a new task. Right-click on NC configuration and select "Append Task..." (see Fig. Adding a
new task).
• Rename the task if required and confirm with OK.
