Operating modes and process data
Version notes
The single-channel EL60x1 has been developed and enhanced over a number of years. Through further
development of the EL6001/EL6021 the following functional extensions have been implemented:
• from firmware (FW) 05 / hardware (HW) 03, (EL6001); firmware (FW) 04 / hardware (HW) 03, (EL6021)
the objects for status monitoring and parameterization are also available from index 0x6000 (profile-
specific objects) and can be parameterized in the TwinCAT System Manager, depending on the
hardware.
• from firmware (FW) 06 / hardware (HW) 03, (EL6021) the
is supported
• from firmware 08 (EL6001) the 16-bit process data interface for sending/receiving of > 8 bit is
supported
• from firmware 11 (EL6001) all integer baud rates 1000…115200 baud can be used.
•
Older versions of the EL6001/EL6021 do not support this functionality!

All baud rates 1000…115200 via
explicitBaudrate implemented
The EL6002/EL6022 devices with revision -0016 already feature objects in the 6000, 7000 and 8000 range
from the first release.
Compatibility in the case of service
Example: An EL6001/EL6021 employed and projected with Hardware 03 or higher cannot be re-
placed by an EL6001/EL6021 with an older hardware version (<03)! The reverse case can be imple-
mented without problem!
Process data monitoring
•
WcState
: if ≠ 0, this EtherCAT device does not take part in the process data traffic
•
State
: if ≠ 8, the EtherCAT device is not in OP (operational) status
•
TxPDO state, SyncError:
if ≠ 0, then no valid process data are available, e.g. caused by broken
wire
•
TxPDO Toggle
: if this bit is toggling, a new set of process data is available
