 The network diagnostics;
 The upload and download of CoE parameters.

Usability

The SM_Ethercat.lib and AtEm.LIB function libraries are integrated in the following target

systems:

 L-force Logic x700 from version 6.x
 L-force Motion x700 from version 6.x

Via the Library manager of the »PLC Designer« you can integrate the function libraries into

the »PLC Designer« project. They can be found in the library directory of the corresponding

target system in the subdirectory "EtherCAT".

Note!

The integration of the SM_EthercatDrive.lib function library into a »PLC

Designer« project is not required, as the function blocks and the functions of this

library are not relevant.
In the course of this chapter only the function blocks and functions required for

the creation of a »PLC Designer« project are described.
