The EtherCAT technology module enables the connection of the item servo positioning controller C Series to the EtherCAT
fieldbus system. The communication via the EtherCAT interface (IEEE-802.3u) is realised with the aid of standard EtherCAT
cabling.
In the case of the item servo positioning controller C Series supports the CoE protocol (CANopen over
EtherCAT) with the FPGA ESC20 made by Beckhoff.
The EtherCAT technology module is supported solely in the
TECH 2
technology slot.
Additional technology modules will not be supported if the EtherCAT technology module is used.
If your specific requirements are more complex, please contact your sales partner in order to find a solution for
your particular application.
