Assembly and Installation
4.4 Bus termination
A bus terminator (e.g. using bus terminating resistors) is not necessary. If no follow-up
unit is connected to an EtherCAT unit, this is automatically detected.
4.5 Setting the station address
The address of EtherCAT units from SEW-EURODRIVE cannot be set at the unit. These
units are recognized via their position in the bus structure and are then assigned an ad-
dress by the EtherCAT master. This can be displayed in MOVITOOLS
