EtherCAT obtains a flexible diagnostic interface
Published on : Monday 30-11--0001
The most imperative highlights of the EtherCAT constant Ethernet fieldbus framework incorporate its demonstrative equipment and programming choices: the framework recognizes blames in the EtherCAT organize, as well as finds them, including free attachment associations.
This makes the methodology perfect for building a vigorous modern system condition. The blame finding permits potential downtimes in a generation plant to be forestalled.
Outsider sellers who can work with any EtherCAT ace usage without extra equipment customization would now be able to utilize the product based, low-memory demonstrative interface.
Incorporating the interface into the in-house demonstrative device permits the immediate recovery of data about the system topology, correlation with the normal arrangement and in addition the recognition of transmission unsettling influences and sudden status changes of the slave gadgets utilized.
The EtherCAT correspondence convention is utilized to interface a wide scope of peripherals and is bolstered, for instance, by the PCRM robot control module from Pilz .
