■ Communication Wiring
EtherCAT bus communication adopts shielded Ethernet cables for data transmission,
without short circuit, misalignment and poor contact. The length of cables between
devices cannot exceed 100m; otherwise, signal attenuation will occur and affect
normal communication. It is recommended to use cables specified as follows.
