Notes
• The elements mentioned above result in the
technical designation
. EJ1008-0000-0017 is used in the
example below.
• EJ1008-0000 is the
order identifier
, in the case of “-0000” usually abbreviated to EJ1008.
• The
revision
-0017 shows the technical progress, such as the extension of features with regard to the
EtherCAT communication, and is managed by Beckhoff.
In principle, a device with a higher revision can replace a device with a lower revision, unless specified
otherwise, e.g. in the documentation.
Associated and synonymous with each revision there is usually a description (ESI, EtherCAT Slave
Information) in the form of an XML file, which is available for
• The product designation, version and revision are read as decimal numbers, even if they are
technically saved in hexadecimal.
Serial number
The serial number for EtherCAT plug-in modules is usually the 8-digit number printed on the side of the
module (see following illustration C). The serial number indicates the configuration in delivery state and
therefore refers to a whole production batch, without distinguishing the individual modules of a batch.
