Online/offline directory
While working with the TwinCAT System Manager, a distinction has to be made whether the EtherCAT
device is "available", i.e. switched on and linked via EtherCAT and therefore online, or whether a
configuration is created offline without connected slaves.
In both cases a CoE directory is visible according to the figure "CoE-Online tab", but the connectivity is
displayed as offline/online.
• If the slave is offline

◦ the configured status is shown under Identity
◦ no firmware or hardware version is displayed, since these are features of the physical device.
◦ Offline is shown in red
