Startup list
Note
Startup list
Changes in the local CoE list of the terminal are lost
if the terminal is replaced
. If a termi-
nal is replaced with a new Beckhoff terminal, it will have the factory settings. It is therefore
advisable to link all changes in the CoE list of an EtherCAT slave with the
Startup list
of
the slave, which is processed whenever the EtherCAT fieldbus is started. In this way a re-
placement EtherCAT slave can automatically be parameterized with the specifications of
the user.
If EtherCAT slaves are used which are unable to store local CoE values permanently, the
Startup list must be used.
Recommended approach for manual modification of CoE parameters
• Make the required change in the System Manager. The values are stored locally in the EtherCAT slave
• If the value is to be stored permanently, enter it in the Startup list. The order of the Startup entries is
usually irrelevant.
Fig. 64: Startup list in the TwinCAT System Manager
The Startup list may already contain values that were configured by the System Manager based on the ESI
specifications. Additional application-specific entries can be created.
Online/offline directory
While working with the TwinCAT System Manager, a distinction has to be made whether the EtherCAT
device is "available", i.e. switched on and linked via EtherCAT and therefore
online
, or whether a
configuration is created
offline
without connected slaves.
In both cases a CoE directory is visible according to the figure "CoE-Online tab", but the connectivity is
displayed as offline/online.
If the slave is offline
• the offline list from the ESI file is displayed. In this case modifications are not meaningful or possible.
• the configured status is shown under Identity
• no firmware or hardware version is displayed, since these are features of the physical device.
• Offline is shown in red
