EoE communication cannot be re-established after interruption of EtherCAT connection (corrected from V1.9.3)

Corrected from:
- i700 servo inverter V01.09.03.10964 

Response of the new version:
EoE communication can be re-established after an interruption of the EtherCAT connection.
 
What happens?
EoE communication (Ethernet over EtherCAT) cannot be re-established if the EtherCAT connection has been interrupted.
 
When does this behaviour occur?
The behaviour occurs if the EtherCAT connection is interrupted during a running EoE communication, e.g. by an interruption of the EtherCAT line or a change to the 'Init' status.
The described behaviour only occurs sporadically if the EtherCAT connection is several times interrupted during a running EoE communication.
The behaviour is due to a queue not being emptied after an interruption of the EtherCAT connection.
 
Which products are affected?
- i700 servo inverter
 
Short-term measures:
If communication cannot be re-established, restart the controller, either by switching the mains or by writing 1100 (Restart Device) to the object 0x2022:0 via CoE.
 
Evaluation/recommendations:
Avoid interruptions of the EtherCAT connection during a running EoE communication.
