Communications Cables
EtherCAT networks allow free wiring in any connection forms. Connection before and after the
E3NW-ECT EtherCAT Sensor Communication Units shall be made in daisy chain connection.
Connect the communications cable from the EtherCAT Master Unit to the [CN IN] connector of the
Slave Units. Connect another the communications cable from the [CN OUT] connector of the first Slave
Unit to the [CN IN] connector of the next Slave Unit.
Note that nothing should be connected to the [CN OUT] connector of the Slave Unit at the terminal end
of the network.
Using Distributed Sensor Units
on page A-51 for connection with the Distributed Sensor
Units.
Precautions for Correct Use
•
The cable length between each Slave Unit (L1, L2, ... Ln) must be within 100 m.
•
Connect cables securely until communications cable connectors click and are fixed in place.
•
When you wire the communications cables, observe their specifications (bending radius and
so on) defined by the cable manufacturer.
