EL6731 | PROFIBUS master/slave terminal

The PROFIBUS master terminal EL6731 corresponds to the Beckhoff FC3101 PROFIBUS PCI card. Due to the connection via EtherCAT, no PCI slots are required in the PC.

The terminal controls the PROFIBUS protocol with all its features. Within an EtherCAT Terminal network, it enables the integration of any PROFIBUS devices. Thanks to the PROFIBUS chip developed in-house, the terminals are equipped with the latest version of the PROFIBUS technology – including high-precision isochronous mode for axis control and expanded diagnostic options. These masters are the only ones that support different poll rates for the slaves. The PROFIBUS terminal has a powerful protocol implementation with many features:

• cycle times from 200 µs are possible
• PROFIBUS DP, PROFIBUS DP-V1, PROFIBUS DP-V2
• master, slave and PROFIBUS monitor 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 EL6731 is optionally also available as a slave version (EL6731-0010).

 

EL6751 | CANopen master/slave terminal

The EL6751 CANopen master terminal corresponds to the Beckhoff FC5101 CANopen PCI card. Due to the connection via EtherCAT, no PCI slots are required in the PC. Within an EtherCAT Terminal network, it enables the integration of any CANopen devices. The terminal can either be master or slave. In addition, general CAN messages can be sent or received – without having to bother with CAN frames in the applications program. The terminal has a powerful protocol implementation with many features:

• All CANopen PDO communication types are supported: event driven, time driven (using an event timer), synchronous, polling.
• synchronisation with the PC controller‘s task cycle
• SYNC cycle with quartz precision for drive synchronisation, zero cumulative jitter
• parameter communication (SDO) at start-up and when running
• emergency message handling, guarding and heartbeat
• powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces
• online bus load display
• bus monitor functionality

The EL6751 is optionally also available as a slave version (EL6751-0010).

 

EL6752 | DeviceNet master/slave terminal

The DeviceNet master terminal EL6752 corresponds to the Beckhoff FC5201 DeviceNet PCI card. Due to the connection via EtherCAT, no PCI slots are required in the PC. Within an EtherCAT Terminal network, the terminal enables the integration of any DeviceNet devices. The terminal can either be master or slave. The DeviceNet terminal has a powerful protocol implementation with many features:

• All DeviceNet I/O modes are supported: polling, change of state, cyclic, strobed.
• unconnected message manager (UCMM)
• Offline Connection Set, Device Heartbeat Messages, Device Shutdown Messages
• Auto Device Replacement (ADR)
• powerful parameter and diagnostics interfaces
• The error management for each bus user is freely configurable.

The EL6752 is optionally also available as a slave version (EL6752-0010).

 

EL6740-0010 | Interbus slave terminal

The Interbus slave terminal facilitates data exchange between EtherCAT and Interbus. For both bus systems the terminal “mirrors” up to 64 bytes to the respective other system. The outputs are written to the inputs of the other bus with minimum delay. The terminal can use the Interbus protocol up to a baud rate of 2 Mbit. Due to the connection via EtherCAT, no PCI slots are required in the PC.
