11.1
General
This part of the documentation describes the implemented standards and the communications of the
CMMT in an EtherCAT network. It is targeted at people who are already familiar with the bus protocol.
EtherCAT (Ethernet for Controller and Automation Technology) is a standard developed by the "Ether-
CAT Technology Group (ETG)" association. Numerous device manufacturers are members of this user
organisation. EtherCAT is an open, real-time-capable Ethernet technology that has been standardised
by the International Electrotechnical Commission (IEC).
The firmware package includes an ESI file and it is also available as a separate file in the support
portal

Overview of EtherCAT communication and synchronisation
The graph illustrates EtherCAT communication and synchronisation of the CMMT with other network
devices (e.g. controller (Controller) and Clock Master) a the advanced "CANopen over EtherCAT (CoE)"
and "Ethernet over EtherCAT (EoE)" protocols.
