8-3-5 EtherCAT Communication 
(1) ESI document 
When using EtherCAT communication, the user can configure EtherCAT controller through 
EtherCAT slave information file (ESI) provided by TECO. ESI file consists of all object information 
JSDG2S-E servo driver can provide for using and related settings.
