EtherCAT slave to CANopen master bus protocol conversion gateway configuration details [Copy link]

How to achieve effective connection and communication between EtherCAT slave and CANopen master has always been a question that many people are confused about. Now, we will answer this question for you. The YC-ECT-COP device performs extremely well and can smoothly solve this problem that has troubled everyone. Next, we will introduce the functions of the device in detail, including intelligent network management functions, powerful compatibility, etc.; parameters, including power consumption and size of the device; and specific configuration methods, such as how to perform basic configuration and how to complete advanced configuration in specific scenarios.

1. Main functions of the equipment

YC-ECT-COP gateway is a data communication between EtherCAT network and CANopen network, which can connect CANopen network to EtherCAT network, that is, connect CANopen device to EtherCAT network.

Widely used: Applicable to inverters, stepper motors, servo drives, instruments, PLCs, DCSs, FCSs, etc. that support CANopen interfaces. For example, the motion control system using the EtherCAT protocol is connected with sensors and actuators using the CANopen protocol to ensure the smooth operation of the entire production process.
