Assembly
NOTE
Electrostatic discharge
Electrical components can be damaged by electrostatic discharges. Observe ESD protection measures
during assembly. Ensure the environment is well grounded with ESD compliant floors, gloves, clothing and
workstations.
The FC1028 EtherCAT card requires a PCIe x4 slot that complies with the PCIe standard. In principle, the
card can also be operated in longer slots, i.e. also in PCIe x8 or PCIe x16 slots. It is only important that the
slots support four PCIe lanes.

The EtherCAT card does not require an external power supply. The card is supplied directly from the
Industrial PC via the PCIe bus. The power supply of the Industrial PC has to be adequate for meeting the
power requirement of the EtherCAT cards, particularly if several EtherCAT cards are installed.
Proceed as follows:
1. Before installing the EtherCAT card, switch off the Industrial PC and any external power supplies, and
separate the PC from the mains.
2. Open the housing of the Industrial PC and remove the cover plate in the housing wall of the Industrial PC
at a free PCIe slot of the motherboard.
3. Insert the EtherCAT card into the free PCIe slot and fix it with the screw or device provided. Make sure
that there is enough space between the EtherCAT card and other PC components so that the EtherCAT
card cannot touch any other plug-in cards or motherboard components.
ð
After a restart, the EtherCAT card is automatically detected. No additional drivers need to be installed.
3.2
Wiring
Connection cables type C9900-K921 are required for the connection of the EtherCAT devices. The
connection cable is a breakout cable with an ix-Industrial
®
type A plug to 2 x Cat.6 RJ45 socket.
