A.3 Updating the bus node EEPROM
In its delivery status, the CTEU-EC bus node uses a Modular
Device Profile (MDP) for both I-ports.
Because some EtherCAT masters do not yet suppor t an MDP,
it may b e necessary to rewrite the bus node EE PROM from
MDPtoafixedI/Oconfiguration.
For this the fixed ESI file ( chapter 2) is required.
Depending on the configuration and programming software
used, the actual procedure may vary slightly from the one
described below. The basic procedure is as follows:
1. Select the CTEU- E C bus node from “I/O configuratio n”
in the co nfi gurati on and programming software.
2. Select “EEPROM Update”.
3. Overwrite the EEPROM with the fixed ESI file.
4. Perform a cold start of the bus node.
5. Find the bus node in your configuration and program-
ming software, and reparameterise it.
