Data transmission errors
Any attempt to simultaneously operate the gauge via the RS232C
Serial Interface and EtherCAT interface or the diagnostic port may
result in incorrect data and data transmission errors.
Therefore, it is inadmissible to simultaneously operate the gauge via
the RS232C Serial Interface and EtherCAT interface, or the diagnostic
This Communication Protocol contains instructions for operating EtherCAT inter-
faces (slaves) together with a master.

The following description of the EtherCAT interface is compliant to the EtherCAT
specification of the EtherCAT Technology Group (ETG) and to the "EtherCAT
Semiconductor Device Profile".
This manual describes the functionality of a EtherCAT slave and supports
• ETG.5003.1 S (R) V1.1.0: Part 1 Common Device Profile (CDP) (→ [17])
and
• ETG.5003.2080 S (R) V1.3.0: Part 2080: Specific Device Profile (SDP) Vacuum
Pressure Gauge (→ [18]).
For operating the gauge via EtherCAT, prior installation of the device specific ESI
file is required on the bus master side. This file can be downloaded from our web-
site.
