Guidelines
Follow these guidelines to ensure IP67 protection:
• Mount plugs with the torque values specified below. Use a torque wrench, e.g. Beckhoff ZB8801.
• Seal unused connectors with protective caps.
• Ensure the correct seating of pre-assembled protective caps.
Protective caps are pre-assembled at the factory to protect connectors during transport. They may not
be tight enough to ensure IP67 protection.
The EtherCAT Box is supplied with two supply voltages. The supply voltages are electrically isolated in the
EtherCAT Box.
• The control voltage US is the supply voltage for:
◦ processor logic
◦ fieldbus logic
◦ analog inputs and outputs
• The peripheral voltage UP is the supply voltage for:
◦ External sensors: M12 sockets 1 and 2
◦ External actuators: M12 sockets 3 and 4
3.2.1.1Connection
NOTE
Supply voltages can destroy EtherCAT interfaces
Connectors for supply voltages have the same design as connectors for EtherCAT. They are not protected
against mismating.
Avoid mismating.
Observe the color coding of the connectors:
Power supply: black
EtherCAT: green
Two M8 connectors at the low-end of the modules are used for feeding and routing the supply voltages:
• IN: left M8 connector for feeding the supply voltages
• OUT: right M8 connector for forwarding the supply voltages

Redirection of the supply voltages
The IN and OUT power connections are bridged in the module (not IP204x-Bxxx and IE204x). The supply
voltages US and UP can thus easily be transferred from EtherCATBox to EtherCATBox.
NOTE
Pay attention to the maximum permissible current!
Pay attention also for the redirection of the supply voltages US and UP, the maximum permissible current for
M8 connectors of 4A must not be exceeded!

3.2.1.3Power cable conductor losses M8
The ZK2020-xxxx-yyyy power cables should not exceed the total length of 15m at 4A (with continuation).
When planning the cabling, note that at 24V nominal voltage, the functionality of the module can no longer
be assured if the voltage drop reaches 6V. Variations in the output voltage from the power supply unit must
also be taken into account.
Fig.8: Power cable conductor losses
Example
8m power cable with 0.34mm² cross-section has a voltage drop of 3.2V at 4A.

3.2.2EtherCAT
For connecting EtherCAT devices only shielded Ethernet cables that meet the requirements of at least
category5 (CAT5) according to EN50173 or ISO/IEC11801 should be used.
EtherCAT uses four wires for signal transmission.
Thanks to automatic line detection ("Auto MDI-X"), both symmetrical (1:1) or cross-over cables can be used
between Beckhoff EtherCAT.
Detailed recommendations for the cabling of EtherCAT devices can be found at
https://infosys.beckhoff.com/content/1033/ethernetcabling/index.html?id=1661412216745722148.

4.4Object description and parameterization
EtherCAT XML Device Description
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We recommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and installing it according to installation instructions.
Parameterization via the CoE list (CAN over EtherCAT)
The EtherCAT device is parameterized via the CoE - Online tab (double-click on the respective object) or via the Process Data tab (allocation of PDOs).
Introduction
The CoE overview contains objects for different intended applications:
• Objects required for parameterization [}35] during commissioning
• Objects intended for regular operation [}40], e.g. through ADS access.
• Objects for indicating internal settings [}40] (may be fixed)
• Further profile-specific objects [}45] indicating inputs, outputs and status information
The following section first describes the objects required for normal operation, followed by a complete
overview of missing objects.

4.5Restoring the delivery state
To restore the delivery state for backup objects in ELxxxx terminals / EPxxxx- and EPPxxxx boxes, the CoE
object Restore default parameters, SubIndex 001 can be selected in the TwinCAT System Manager (Config
mode).
Fig.20: Selecting the Restore default parameters PDO
Double-click on SubIndex 001 to enter the Set Value dialog. Enter the value 1684107116 in field Dec or the
value 0x64616F6C in field Hex and confirm with OK.
All backup objects are reset to the delivery state.
Fig.21: Entering a restore value in the Set Value dialog
Alternative restore value
In some older terminals / boxes the backup objects can be switched with an alternative restore
value:
Decimal value: 1819238756
Hexadecimal value: 0x6C6F6164
An incorrect entry for the restore value has no effect.

5.2General note on the introduction of the Beckhoff
Identification Code (BIC)
General
In future you will increasingly find machine-readable information on Beckhoff products in the form of a Data
Matrix Code (DMC, ECC200). This helps us to improve the quality assurance process, beyond which you
can use it for better identification of our products.
The introduction of the Data Matrix Code (called BIC [Beckhoff Identification Code] at Beckhoff) is taking
place gradually across all product groups.
The information in the BICs is oriented to the ANSI standard MH10.8.2-2016
Representation and contents of the BIC
The BIC can be found in the following places, depending on the product:
• on the packaging unit
• directly on the product (if space suffices)
• on the packaging unit and the product
The BIC is readable and contains information that you can use for your internal handling and administration
of the products. When scanning the BICs you will find the following information:
Coded information on the BIC

1Beckhoff order numberBeckhoff order number
2Beckhoff Traceability
3Article descriptionBeckhoff article description, e.g. EL1008
4QuantityQuantity in packaging unit, e.g. 1, 10, etc.
5Batch numberOptional: Year and week of production
6ID/serial numberOptional: Present-day serial number system, e.g. with safety
7Variant numberOptional: Product variant number on the basis of standard products
8DatecodeInternal
9Job/batch numberInternal
10Serial numberInternal
...
Each item of information is clearly identifiable on the basis of the data identifier (ANSI MH10.8.2-2016). The
data identifier is followed by a character string. Both together have a maximum length according to the
following table. If the items of information are shorter, they are replaced by spaces. The data under positions
1-4 always exist (temporary restriction, see BTN below).

EP437450Version: 2.3
Overview of the defined data identifiers with examples
Example of an item of information made up of positions 1 – 4 and 6. The data identifiers are each marked in
red for clearer illustration:
BTN
An important component of the BIC is the Beckhoff Traceability Number (BTN, item no. 2). The BTN is a
unique 8-character serial number that in future will replace all other serial number systems at Beckhoff (e.g.
batch designations on IO components, hitherto serial number circle for safety products, etc.). The BTN is
likewise being introduced gradually, so it may be the case that the BTN is not yet coded in the BIC.
