If the states are Operational go on reading at Read and write variables .
In case of problems please check the outputs in the EtherCAT Workbench and read the following
note.
INFORMATION
The most probable reason of the problem that might occur here is that different
configurations for primary and secondary side have been created at the configuration of
the variables. In this case the ECX-EC does not switch into
Operational or Safe-
Operational (with error Inconsistent Settings – Al Statuscode 0x0026).
Make sure that the input variables of the primary side comply with the output variables
of the secondary side and vice versa (the name of the variables can be disregarded).
