EtherCAT
®
uses process data objects (PDO) to transfer process data. Process data is
transferred from the EtherCAT
®
master to the EtherCAT
®
slave with objects 0x1600,
0x1601 etc.; these data objects are called receive PDOs (RxPDOs). Process data is
transferred from the EtherCAT
®
slave to the EtherCAT
®
master with objects 0x1A00,
0x1A01 etc.; these data objects are called send PDOs (TxPDOs).
Input Process Data
Objects 0x1A00 and 0x1A11 transfer input process data.

Process Data (Pin 4) The port and pin assignment of process
data depends on the process data layout
setting: pin-based or port-based. See the
following tables.
0x1800.07
1 bit
Status bit
True: input data invalid
False: input data valid
0x1800.09
1 bit
Toggle bit
The slave toggles this bit every time the Tx-
PDO is updated.

The process data of the digital inputs can be transferred on a port basis (default) or pin
basis. The following tables show the port and pin assignment.
