All necessary settings for this module are already performed at Bronkhorst.
To follow next steps carefully is the quickest way to get this module operational in your own EtherCAT
environment.
Bit 0 of object 0x6425:01 "CO Control Byte" should be 1 to activate the PID controller (bit 0 = controller
on/off).
The PID controller is activated by default, but because this object is included in the process data (PDO),
the value 0 can be written by the EtherCAT master after entering the operational state.
See APPENDIX A: OBJECT DICTIONARY, description of 0x6425 "CO Control byte".
