Network Adapter EPXETC001
The EPXETC001 network adapter is an EtherCAT
device certified by the EtherCAT Technology Group.
The network adapter is the head module for the RSTi-EP system bus, to which up to 64 active RSTi-EP
modules can be connected. The EtherCAT network adapter has two Ethernet ports and an integrated
switch.
The network adapter can be accessed with a system-independent web server application via the
USB service interface or the EtherCAT. Thus, all information, such as diagnostics, status values and
parameters, can be read and all connected modules can be simulated or forced.
The station's main power supply is integrated in the network adapter. Power is supplied via two 4-
pole connectors, separated into the input and output current paths.
