GRT1-series EtherCAT Communication Unit - Operation Manual
3-1 GRT1-ECT In network with
SmartSlices
The GRT1-Series SmartSlice I/O Units are building-block style I/O devices, which can be expanded in
small I/O increments. This provides the possibility to configure I/O systems which exactly match the
various applications. SmartSlice I/O Units communicate with the EtherCAT Master Unit by remote I/O
communication through an EtherCAT Communication Unit. The figure below shows a typical I/O
configuration.
SmartSlice I/O configurations can be very compact, consisting of only a few
I/O points, but they can also be extended, to up to 64 I/O slices. The slice configuration can also be
subdivided over two or more blocks using local extension units and extension cables, as shown in the
figure above.
Reference
The GRT1-Series of SmartSlice I/O Units and Communication Units is constantly being
expanded with new Units. Refer to the latest revisions of the GRT1 Series SmartSlice I/O Units
Operation Manual (W455).
