Together with the PDOs defined in the ESI file the complete list of indexes then becomes
accessible and enable the user to completely control the unit.
There is a connection between the CoE indexes and the ModBus register numbers in the
lists. You can translate both back and forth.
►
Translating ModBus register
►
CANopen index
ModBus register number in d 8193
►
convert to hexadecimal = index
Example: You want to set the unit into remote control mode and want to find the
corresponding CoE index. In the register list you have register number 402 for
this task. Calculation: 402 + 8193 = 8595
►
converted to hexa- decimal it is
0x2193, hence index 2193.
►
Translating CANopen index
►
ModBus register
CANopen index in hexadecimal - 0x2001
►
convert to decimal = register
Example: you need know the meaning of the bits in the PDO "Status". Find the
corresponding CoE index in the index list. Here it is 21FA. Calculation: 0x21FA -
0x2001 = 0x1F9
►
converted to decimal it is 505. In the register list you will find
register number 505 and the layout of the 32 bit value.

PDOs
The unit description file defines for our EtherCAT slaves the same set of PDOs:
Name

503
Set value of resistance (in per cent)
7.16.5
SDOs
The acyclic data objects for use in the EtherCAT system are defined in your unit and can be
downloaded from it. It requires the unit to be online with the EtherCAT system. There is no
separate documentation for the down- loadable data objects. Like with CANopen (see
section 7.14, “CANopen” on page 178), the register lists which are part of the programming
documentation are the reference for the SDOs to explain data content and function.
7.16.6
Use of the data objects
Please refer to section 7.14.2, “User objects (indexes)” on page 178“.
