Copy the bus node−specific XML file into the program
directory of your configuration program in Beckhoff
TwinCAT in:
C:\programs\TwinCAT\Io\ EtherCAT
To ensure that TwinCAT uploads the configuration file, the
subseqeuntly desribed import of the XML file is required
(see also Fig.2/5).
Import 1. Start the configuration program of your PLC, e.g. the
Beckhoff TwinCAT System Manager (

in Fig.2/5).
2. Import (incorporate) the XML file into the configuration
program in TwinCAT by using:
Actions" > Import XML Descriptions..."
(

opens (is displayed).
3. Select the Festo XML file

, and click Open"

to
confirm and cause the selection.
Having completed the import of the XML file, i.e. after
incorporation of the device properties into the configuration
program, the bus node is registered as potential EtherCAT
device. Hence, you can integrate the bus node into your
EtherCAT network, and configure the CPX terminal
(seesection 2.4.3).
Symbolic representation
ofthe CPX terminal The Festo XML file comprises a symbolic representation of
the bus node and the corresponding CPX terminal which is
reflected in the EtherCAT topology display, for instance
(seesection 2.4.5). The topology display however is first
available after completion of the EtherCAT network
configuration. (The network configuration is described in
section 2.4.3.)
