4.4 Positioning of passive Terminals

Hint for positioning of passive terminals in the bus terminal block

EtherCAT Terminals (ELxxxx / ESxxxx), which do not take an active part in data transfer within the

bus terminal block are so called passive terminals. The passive terminals have no current consump-

tion out of the E-Bus.

To ensure an optimal data transfer, you must not directly string together more than 2 passive termi-

nals!
