3. Configuration
3.1. ESI file
To configure the SI Unit with your EtherCAT
®
controller's software, the dedicated ESI (EtherCAT
®
Slave
Information) file is required.
The ESI file contains all necessary information to configure the SI Unit on your controller's software.
The ESI file name is as follows.
 ESI file ：SMC_EX260-VECx_V10.xml
3.2. Vacuum manifold stations setting (Slot 1)
Set the number of vacuum manifold stations from the slot.
Select according to the specifications of the connected vacuum manifold.

Description
Vacuum manifold stations
Vacuum manifold 4-stations
0x00030001
4 stations of the vacuum manifold
Vacuum manifold 8-stations
0x00030002
8 stations of the vacuum manifold
Vacuum manifold 12-stations
0x00030003
12 stations of the vacuum manifold
Vacuum manifold 16-stations
0x00030004
16 stations of the vacuum manifold
NOTE
 Scan the SI Unit for first time configuration to automatically set the slot to match the actual vacuum
manifold connected.
 If the vacuum manifold stations is not set or if the number of vacuum manifold actually connected does
not match this setting, the Diagnostic history "Error" occurs and ERR LED blinks (2.5kHz).
In addition, the SI Unit cannot shift to Operational or Safe-Operational status.
(AL Status Code: 0x0070)
3.3. Unit status setting (Slot 2)
Set Enable/Disable of unit status from the slot. The default setting is unit status enabled.
If the module is deleted, the SI Unit don't have overall diagnostic information.
For the unit status content, refer to Section 4.1.5.
