COMMUNICATION SETUP
●
To perform communications over the EtherCAT network, you need an EtherCAT
master device, a configuration tool for the EtherCAT master device, and an ESI file.
●
For details, refer to the respective manuals for the EtherCAT master device and
configuration tool that you use.
● You can download the ESI file of this product from our website.
https://panasonic.net/id/pidsx/global
Install the ESI file of this product according to the manual of the configuration tool
to be used.
●
For details on communication conditions and commands, refer to the
“
SC-HG1-
ETC User’s Manual
”
(

CONNECTING AN EXTERNAL DEVICE
Connecting the Ethernet cable
●
Before wiring, always turn the power OFF.
●
For the Ethernet cable, use shielded twisted pair cables that are compatible with
category 5e or higher.
● The communication distance must be within the specified range.
●
Make sure that there is no duplication when setting station numbers.
●
Always run the Ethernet cable through a duct or secure the cable with clamps.
Failure to do so may affect the contact state of the connectors due to vibration or
impact, resulting in malfunction.
How to connect
1.
Hold the connector of the Ethernet cable and
align the lock release lever of the Ethernet cable
with the groove in IN or OUT.
2.
Insert the connector until it snaps in.

How to disconnect
1.
Press on the lock release lever on the Ethernet
cable and pull it out.
Notes: 1) Attempting to pull out the connector without pressing the lock
release lever may break the lock release lever. Do not use an
Ethernet cable whose lock release lever is broken. Do not
grasp the cable to pull, as this may cause wire breakage in
the cable.
2) To ensure communication reliability, always ground the shield
of the Ethernet cable on the master device side. This product
does not have a grounding terminal.
