6.2.3
Configuring process data
Servo Drives 9400 support the configuration of max. 32 process data words (max. 64 bytes) per
direction.
The process data configuration is determined during the initialisation phase of the master (PDO
mapping).
The process data configuration is specifically predefined in the device description file for each
application.
The process data length can be adapted by the user, if required.
6.2.4
Determining the cycle time
The process data objects (PDO) are transmitted cyclically between the EtherCAT master and the
slaves (drives).
The cycle time is set by means of the EtherCAT configuration software.
