3.5 Setting
Using the teaching tool, set controller parameters. Set the mode toggle switch on the front panel of the controller
to “MANU” side. Refer to the instruction manual for each teaching tool for the applicable version of the teaching
tool that can be applied to EtherCAT.
3.5.1 Operation Mode Selecting
Set parameter No. 84 “FMOD: Field Bus Operation Mode.”
[Refer to 3.9 EtherCAT(R) Related Parameters.]
Set Value Operation Mode

Value Mode
8
2 Half Direct Value Mode 16
3 Full Direct Value Mode 32
4 Remote I/O Mode 12
* Entering any value except for the ones described above will cause an “Excessive Input Value Error”.
3.5.2 Station No. Setting
Set parameter No. 85 “NADR: Field Bus Node Address.”
[Refer to 3.9 EtherCAT(R) Related Parameters.]
Settable Range:0 to 127 (It is set to “17” when the machine is delivered from the factory.)
(Note)
Exercise caution to avoid node address duplication.
The nodes (controllers) are assigned in the order of their node address in the remote memory areas of
the PLC.
For details, refer to the Operation Manuals of the master unit and PLC in which in the master unit is
installed.
(Note)
The setting for the communication speed is not required because it automatically follows the master’s
communication speed.
(Note)
After the parameter setting, turn on the power to the controller again and return the mode toggle switch
on the front of the controller to “AUTO” side.
When the switch is set to “MANU”, the operation using PLC is not available.
Caution: Selecting a value between 17 and 80 (EtherCAT (R) I/O device range) is
recommended for node address if Omron’s master is being used.
If a value between 0 and 16 are selected, the Full Direct Value mode cannot be used.
