Configuring the upper master
This chapter shows how to configure distributed clocks (DC) for the upper master. Connect the previously
configured CX8110 to the upper master. Use TwinCAT to scan for the master and the CX8110 connected to
it.
Make sure the sync task is less than or equal to 5 ms and the CPU load is less than 60%. The best results
are achieved with short cycle times between 1 and 2 ms.
Proceed as follows:
1. In the tree view click on the EtherCAT slave. This is the CX8110 connected to the upper master.
2. Click the
DC
tab.
3. Under
Operation Mode
, enable the
DC Synchron
option.
ð
You have successfully enabled distributed clocks (DC) if the variables DcToTcTimeOffset, DcTimeDiff
and Dc State were created under InfoData.
