Ethernet RJ45 (X000, X001)
The two Ethernet interfaces are independent; no switch is integrated. The independent Ethernet interfaces
can be configured in different ways. In the delivery state, the Ethernet interfaces (X000, X001) are configured
for EtherCAT communication.
Note that an additional switch is required for a line topology.
Fig. 5: Ethernet interfaces X000, X001.
Both Ethernet interfaces reach speeds of 10 / 100 / 1000 Mbit. The LEDs on the left of the interfaces indicate
the connection status. The upper LED (LINK/ACT) indicates whether the interface is connected to a network.
If this is the case, the LED lights up green. The LED flashes when data transfer on the interface is in
progress.
The lower LED (SPEED) indicates the connection speed. At a speed of 10 Mbit, the LED does not light up. If
the speed is 100 Mbit, the LED lights up green. The LED lights up red if the speed is 1000 Mbit (gigabit).
