5 Turning the Power ON Turn on the power to the devices con-
figuring the system.
6 Construction of
the EtherCAT
network Installation of ESI
files Install the ESI files of EtherCAT slaves
to be connected to EC-Engineer. Refer to the Acontis EC-Engineer
manual for details.
For information on the ESI file, refer
to the manual for the EtherCAT
slave.
EtherCAT slave
settings Configure the EtherCAT communica-
tions settings by using EC-Engineer.
Then, create an ENI file used to down-
load the configured settings to the Mo-
tion Controller. Refer to the Acontis EC-Engineer
manual for details.
Activation of the
EtherCAT net-
work Use Power PMAC IDE to download the
ENI file to the Motion Controller.
Make sure that the ENI file has been
correctly downloaded, and then acti-
vate the EtherCAT network. Refer to the Power PMAC IDE User
Manual (Cat. No. O016) for details.
