Function extension:
With the protocol "Ethernet over EtherCAT (EoE)" normal standard Ethernet telegrams can be sent via the EtherCAT network,
without affecting the real-time communication of the EtherCAT process data.
Contained in which products?
Servo inverter i950 FW: from V01.04.01
Application:
With this extension it is now possible to establish parameter communication (SDO communication) to the i950 servo inverters on the EtherCAT onboard EtherCAT via a standard Ethernet protocol.
This is used, for example, in EoE to Endpoint communication from the PC through a 3rd-party controller (e.g. Beckhoff) or an EtherCAT bridge to the servo inverter.
