5.8 Interference from equipment
When operating the EL33xx analog EtherCAT terminals, high frequency superimposed signals from
interfering devices (e.g. proportional valves, stepper motors or DC motor output stages) can be picked up by
the terminal. In order to guarantee interference-free operation, we recommend the use of separate power
supply units for the terminals and the interference-causing devices.
5.9 Wire break detection
The EL33xx-xxxx terminals provides a wire break detection of the connected thermocouple. A periodical
testing current of several µA will be given to the thermocouple for detection. No voltage measurement takes
place during test.
Due to particular cases, the testing current could have a disturbing effect, the wire break detection can be
disabled by CoE (object
0x80n0:0E [ } 157] , „Disable wire break detection“) since following firmware versions:
EL3311 EL3312 EL3314 EL3314‑0002 EL3314‑0010
EL3314‑0020 EL3314‑0090 EL3318

5.10 Object description and parameterization
EtherCAT XML Device Description
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We rec-
ommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and in-
stalling it according to installation instructions.
Parameterization via the CoE list (CAN over EtherCAT)
The EtherCAT device is parameterized via the CoE - Online tab [ } 127] (double-click on the respec-
tive object) or via the Process Data tab [ } 124] (allocation of PDOs). Please note the following gen-
eral CoE notes [
}
39] when using/manipulating the CoE parameters:
- Keep a startup list if components have to be replaced
- Differentiation between online/offline dictionary, existence of current XML description
- use “CoE reload” for resetting changes
