Function

Master

Status information on the EtherCAT master:

• Configurator corresponds to the stack configuration:

–Information whether the configuration file exported from the »Engineer«

matches the configuration that is loaded in the master stack.

• Master OK

(active if the value from code C1081.5/C1581.5 = "Master OK"*)

–Current master status: OK

• Master status (value from code C1081.2/C1581.2*)

Possible states are:

–Unknown

–INIT (initialisation)

–PREOP (Pre-Operational))

–SAFEOP (Safe-Operational)

–OP (Operational)

• Master in the requested mode

(active if value from code C1081.3/C1581.3* = "1")

–Master status is identical to the requested mode (by PLC).

• Bus scan compliance (active if value from code C1080.4/C1584.4* = "1")

–Information whether the master configuration corresponds to the physical bus

structure. The master configuration of the stack is compared with the actual

bus structure.

• Network link available:

–Information on the active Ethernet connection of the EtherCAT card.

Distributed clocks

Status information on the distributed clocks (DC) settings (value from code C1082.1/

C1582.1*). Possible states are:

• active

–DC synchronisation is actviated.

• in sync

–Distributed clocks in the EtherCAT system are synchronised

• busy

–DC synchronisation adjustment takes place.

More information on how to configure the settings of the distributed clocks:



Synchronisation with "Distributed clocks" ( 36)

Slaves

Status information on the EtherCAT nodes

(active if value from code C1081.4/C1581.4* = "1")

• Slaves are in the status required by the master

* Depending on the IPC slot used (1/2) of the MC-ETC communication card, the first or second code is relevant.
