The EL6001 serial interface enables the connection of devices with RS232 interface The device connected to the EL6001 EtherCAT Terminal communicates with the automation device via the coupler. The active communication channel operates independently of the higher-level bus system in full duplex mode at up to 115.2 kbaud. The RS232 interface guarantees high immunity to interference through electrically isolated signals.
The EL6002 serial interface enables the connection of devices with two RS232 interfaces. The devices connected to the EL6002 EtherCAT Terminal communicate with the automation device via the Coupler.
The EL6021 serial interface enables the connection of devices with RS422 or RS485 interface. These devices communicate with the automation device via the coupler.
The EL6021-0021 serial interface enables the connection of devices with RS422 or RS485 interface. These devices communicate with the automation device via the coupler.
The EL6022 serial interface enables the connection of devices with two RS422/RS485 interfaces. The devices connected to the EL6022 EtherCAT Terminal communicate with the automation device via the Coupler.
Note that the EL6070 and EL6070-0033 are two different devices in terms of EtherCAT and are therefore not interchangeable in the EtherCAT I/O configuration.
The EL6224 IO-Link terminal enables the connection of up to four IO-Link devices. These can be actuators, sensors or a combination of both. A point-to-point connection is used between the terminal and the device.
The EL6631-0010 PROFINET RT device (slave) terminal enables simple exchange of data between EtherCAT and PROFINET RT. It is a device in the EtherCAT strand, which can consist of up to 65,535 devices.
The EL6688 EtherCAT Terminal presents itself as a device in the IEEE 1588 synchronization system with support for PTPv1 (IEEE 1588-2002) and PTPv2 (IEEE 1588-2008) based on Ethernet.
Cycle times from 200 µs are possible. PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS DP-V1, PROFIBUS DP-V2 master and slave up to 12 Mbit/s powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces The error management for each bus user is freely configurable. It is possible to read the bus configuration and automatically assign the “GSD” files.
The Interbus slave terminal facilitates data exchange between EtherCAT and Interbus. For both bus systems the terminal “mirrors” up to 32 word input and 32 word output to the respective other system.
