6.7 Object description and parameterization
EtherCAT XML Device Description
The display matches that of the CoE objects from the EtherCAT XML Device Description. We rec-
ommend downloading the latest XML file from the download area of the Beckhoff website and in-
stalling it according to installation instructions.
Parameterization via the CoE list (CAN over EtherCAT)
The EtherCAT device is parameterized via the CoE - Online tab [}116] (double-click on the respec-
tive object) or via the Process Data tab [}113](allocation of PDOs). Please note the following gen-
eral CoE notes [}37] when using/manipulating the CoE parameters:
- Keep a startup list if components have to be replaced
- Differentiation between online/offline dictionary, existence of current XML description
- use “CoE reload” for resetting changes
Introduction
The CoE overview contains objects for different intended applications:
• Objects required for parameterization during commissioning:
◦ Restore object index 0x1011
◦ Configuration data index 0xF800
• Objects intended for regular operation, e.g. through ADS access.
◦ PM command object index 0xFB00
• Profile-specific objects:
◦ Configuration data (vendor-specific) index 0x80nF
◦ Input data index 0x60n0
◦ Output data index 0x70n0
◦ Information and diagnostic data index 0xF000, 0xF008, 0xF100, 0xF801 and 0xF80F
• Standard objects
The following section first describes the objects required for normal operation, followed by a complete
overview of missing objects.
