2.1 Install the ESI file
2.1.1 Obtain the ESI file
All AMCI ESI files are located on our website at the following address:
http://www.amci.com/industrial-automation-support/configuration-files/
Simply download the ZIP file and extract it.
2.1.2 Install the ESI file
Once extracted, the xml file must be copied or moved to the appropriate system directory. For version 3 of
TwinCAT, the default directory is:
C:\TwinCAT\3.1\Config\Io\EtherCAT\
2.1.3 Restart the Programming System If Needed
If the TwinCAT program was running when the ESI file was copied to the appropriate system directory, you
may have to restart the TwinCAT program before it will recognize the new ESI file.
2.2 Add the SMD34K to the Project
This section assumes that the TwinCAT software is in Config Mode.
2.2.1 Scan for the SMD34K Device
1) Attach the SMD34K device to the network and power up
the device.
2) At this point, the device is in its INIT state. The ERR LED
will be on green and the RUN LED will be off.
3) Right click on the EtherCAT adapter that the SMD34K is
attached to. In the drop down menu that opens, select the
“Scan” option. (If the “Scan” option is not available, the
TwinCAT software is not in Config Mode.)
2.2.2 Rename the Device
The SMD34K will appear in the device tree and the name will
typically begin with “Box”.
1) Click on the unit in the device tree.
2) If needed, click on the “General” tab in the window that
opens.
3) The device name for the SMD34K can be changes in the
Name:
field.
This chapter outlines how to add an SMD34K unit to an EtherCAT system. The
TwinCAT version 3 software is used as an example.
