4.1 Software conditions
Not all software versions are available. The operating mode ExtendedPDMode is supported from
software V2.3. The mode is deactivated by default and therefore downwards compatible to soft-
ware V2.0.
4.2 Fundamentals of the EtherCAT interface connection
The KEB F5 EtherCAT operator contains a separate EtherCAT slave controller for time-critical
operations of the EtherCat communication. By using this EtherCAT controller it is guaranteed that
basic communication is compatible to the EtherCAT specification.
4.2.1
EtherCAT Configuration (EEPROM)
All values are saved in intel format (LSbyte first) into the EEPROM. The following table lists only
the main presettings of the EtherCAT EEPROM.

4.2.2 Mailbox communication
The KEB F5 EtherCAT operator supports the mailbox communication. All parameters of the FI
control and the operator can be read out or preset itself via this mailbox by using the CANoverEth-
erCAT.
