An EtherCAT frame is sent through a pair of wires from the master to the slaves. The frame is
forwarded from slave to slave until it has passed through all the devices. Finally, the last slave
returns the frame to the master through a second pair of wires. In this way, EtherCAT always forms
a logic ring topology, irrespective of the topology used.

During commissioning, plant-specific data such as motor parameters, operating parameters,
responses, and parameters for fieldbus communication are defined for the inverter. Lenze devices
use codes for this purpose.
The codes of the inverter and for communication are saved to the memory module in a non-volatile
data set.
In addition, there are codes for diagnosing and monitoring the stations.

The Controller (EtherCAT master) must be configured before communication with the
communication module is possible.
In order to configure EtherCAT networks, you always need a configuration software for the
Controller, e.g.:
• Lenze »PLC Designer«
• Beckhoff »TwinCAT«
These are software systems for the programming of control programs, EtherCAT configuration, realtime execution, and diagnostics.
The basic parameters of the communication module are stored in the internal configuration
memory and can be used by the master for the node identification.
For the node search (fieldbus scan), the corresponding device descriptions of the Lenze device family
are used.
6.2.1Installing device description files
The current XML device description file required for configuring the EtherCAT node can be found in
the download area at:

For a faultless integration of the EtherCAT slaves into a master configuration it is necessary to select
the correct Lenze device in the EtherCAT configuration software.
Each EtherCAT node is identified unambiguously by the configuration software by means of the
product code (equal to the CoE object I-1018.2), the manufacturer's identification mark (0x3B), and
the main software version of the communication module.
Identification
( 12)
Implemented CoE objects
In order that the configuration software select the configuration from the device description file
specific for the EtherCAT node, the product code is automatically set in the identity object. An
update is made after switching off/on the voltage supply.
During initialisation, the product code is transferred to the EtherCAT master. On the basis of this
identification, the master can accept the corresponding settings from the device description.
Product codes for Inverter Drives 8400
The product code defines the following Inverter Drives 8400 in the device description files:
The EtherCAT nodes are normally addressed via a fixed 16-bit address defined by the EtherCAT
master. During start-up, the master assigns this address to each node, depending on the physical
order in the EtherCAT network. The address is not saved and is lost when the device is switched off.
Via the Station alias address input field you can assign a fixed address to the EtherCAT slave.
Note!
• The station alias address must be unambiguous and may only be assigned once
within the EtherCAT network.
• Use the same station alias address in the EtherCAT master and in the slave.
Valid address range: 0 … 32767
• Address 0 means that no station alias address is assigned.
• Impermissible addresses are marked in red in the input field.
• The address is written to code C13899
In addition, specify the use of the fixed addressing on the master.
The address assigned by the master is displayed under code C13864

The "Distributed clocks" (DC) functionality enables exact time synchronisation for applications in
which several axes perform a coordinated movement simultaneously. Data are incorporated
synchronously with the PLC program. During DC synchronisation, all slaves are synchronised with a
reference clock, the so-called "DC master".
Note!
• DC synchronisation is absolutely required for Motion applications.
• DC synchronisation can also be used for Logic applications.
• Not all slaves support the DC functionality.
• On order to be able to use the DC functionality, the first slave connected to the
EtherCAT master (e.g. Lenze Controller) must have DC master capability.
When further slaves are connected, DC-capable and non-DC-capable devices can be
mixed.
• The first EtherCAT slave after the Lenze Controller must

By default, the application of the DC synchronisation is deactivated in the device description ( 34).
Parameterise the DC synchronisation in the EtherCAT configuration software (»PLC Designer«,
»TwinCAT«).
Set the synchronisation cycle time in the master. It is mainly defined by the processing time of the
master and the slaves.
Note!
The synchronisation cycle time ...
• must be an integer multiple of 1 ms;
• may be maximally 15 ms.

The settings of the parameter sync cycle time (C01121), sync phase position (C01122),
sync tolerance (C01123) and sync PLL increment (C01124) common for the Lenze system

6.4.3Response of the Lenze EtherCAT nodes during start-up
Code C13883 indicates whether the DC synchronisation for the communication module has been
activated.
If the DC synchronisation is used, the communication module only changes to the "Operational"
state when the standard device has adapted its phase position to the DC signal. This process may
take several seconds.
Note!
• If the communication module does not change to the "Operational" state, there might
be an error in the configuration or in the EtherCAT wiring.
• The communication module compares the cycle time defined by the EtherCAT master
to the internal processing time (1 ms) of the standard device. The synchronisation
cycle time in the master must be identical with or an integer multiple of 1 ms.
• Furthermore it is checked whether the sync source selection in standard device code

6.6EtherCAT ADS communication parameters in »TwinCAT« and »Engineer«
Compared with conventional Ethernet, the collision-free transfer of frames on the fieldbus makes
EtherCAT a real-time capable bus system.
Communication is always initiated by the EtherCAT master, e.g. a Lenze Controller. A frame sent by
the master passes through all EtherCAT slaves. The last slave of the communication chain sends the
frame back to the EtherCAT master. On the way back, the frame is directly sent to the master,
without being processed in the slaves.
EtherCAT transmits data in so-called "EtherCAT frames". The EtherCAT nodes only extract the data
intended for them while the EtherCAT frame passes through the device. At the same time output
data are inserted into the frame while it passes through the device. Read and write accesses are only
executed on a small section of the entire EtherCAT frame – the datagrams. Therefore it is not
necessary to receive the complete frame before it can be processed. Processing starts as soon as
possible.
EtherCAT transmits process data, parameter data, configuration data, and diagnostic data between
the EtherCAT master and the inverters (slaves) that are part of the fieldbus. The data are
transmitted via corresponding communication channels depending on their time-critical behaviour
(see Process data transfer
( 59) / Parameter data transfer ( 68)).

These error messages can be entered in the "AL Status Code" register:
Process data are transmitted by means of EtherCAT datagrams ( 56) via the process data channel.
The Inverter Drive 8400 is controlled by means of the process data.
The transmission of process data is time-critical.
Process data are transferred cyclically between the Controller (EtherCAT master) and the inverters
(slaves) (continuous exchange of current input and output data).
The master can directly access the process data. In the PLC for instance, the data are directly stored
in the I/O area.
Up to 16 process data words (16 bits/word) per direction can be exchanged.
Process data are not saved in the Inverter Drive 8400.
Process data are for instance setpoints, actual values, control words, and status words.

Parameter data are transmitted via the fieldbus as so-called SDOs (Service Data Objects). The SDO
services provide for the write and read access to the object directory.
The SDO channel provides for access to Implemented CoE objects

of failure of the EtherCAT master, is detected by the slave.
The response to an interrupted communication is triggered by settings in the Monitoring tab:
• During the initialisation of the EtherCAT communication, the sync manager watchdog
monitoring time determined in the master is transferred to the slave.
If the slave does not receive any valid process data in the "Operational" status, the setting in
C13885
• Value ’0’: The data sent last by the master are used.
• Value ’1’: PDOs are set to the value '0'.
After the watchdog monitoring time has elapsed, the slave changes to the "Safe operational"
state (see C13861
There is no response in the slave
• In order that a response is triggered in the slave, you have to set a Reaction on communication failure (C13880/1
• The response is delayed if you set an internal monitoring time (C13881

The monitoring time elapses as soon as the "Operational" state is exited. (See 1.).
After the monitoring time has elapsed, the response set is executed with the error message

During the Synchronisation with "Distributed Clocks" (DC) ( 37), this monitoring checks whether an
EtherCAT PDO telegram (Sync Manager 2 Event) has arrived between two signals.
For this purpose, the communication module comes with an internal EtherCAT telegram failure
error counter. The telegram failure error counter is incremented by the value '3' in case of a telegram
failure. For each PDO received correctly, the counter is decremented by ’1’. If the internal telegram
failure error counter reaches a threshold adjustable in CoE object 0x10F1.2, a change to "SafeOperational" takes place and the "Sync telegram failure [0x01bc8700]
In the standard setting, monitoring is deactivated (0x10F1.2 = 0). A sensible setting is a value > ’5’
in order that an error will only be triggered in the inverter when a second telegram fails.
An error response can be set via code C13880/2
