command. The following dialog screen is displayed:
Fig. 12-3 Adding EtherCAT entry
Here you can type a name for the EtherCAT entry in the Name field and in the list
below, select the inverters with which you want to communicate over

over EtherCAT
. These inverters are, once you have accepted the dialog screen

OK
button, displayed in the project view below the EtherCAT entry:

to the EtherCAT entry as described above.
If, on the File menu you choose the
Manage EtherCAT
command, the following
dialog screen is displayed:
