7.1.3
Configuring PDO transmission
EtherCAT master to EtherCAT slaves and vice versa.
PDO communication allows for several PDO channels to be operated simultaneously per transmission and sending
direction. The channels for axes A and B each include a PDO with a defined sequence of up to 24 parameters to be
transmitted. These are free to be configured in any way. One channel is reserved for FSoE communication and is
parameterized automatically.
In order to guarantee error-free communication between the controller and drive controller, STOBER offers an application-
dependent pre-assignment of the channels which can be changed at any time.
