TwinCAT configuration
FC1028 14 Version: 1.0
4.2 Insert EtherCAT master manually
This chapter shows how you can manually create an FC1028 EtherCAT card and its EtherCAT master if no
active EtherCAT slaves are connected to the card. This is especially necessary if you already want to start
with the project planning and the complete hardware configuration is not available.
This is in contrast to the automatic scanning of the card in TwinCAT (see: Scan card in TwinCAT [ } 13] ).
Proceed as follows:
1. Start TwinCAT and open an empty project.
2. In the tree view on the left, right-click on I/O Devices .
3. Click Add New Item and select EtherCAT master to create an EtherCAT master. The window Device
Found At appears.
4. Select the appropriate interface from the list according to the subsequent cabling. The list of interfaces is
continued chronologically from 5 to 20, which corresponds to the total of 16 EtherCAT masters of the
card.
As a reminder, the card has a total of eight ix-Industrial
®
type A interfaces, thus up to 16 EtherCAT
devices can be connected to the eight interfaces.
