Automatic device identification
For troublefree integration of the EtherCAT slaves in a master configuration it is
necessary to select the correct Lenze device from the EtherCAT configuration software.
The configuration software unambiguously identifies an EtherCAT node by the product
code (identical to CoE object I-1018.2), the manufacturer code (0x3B), and the main
software version of the Communication Unit.
The product code is automatically set in the Identity object for the configuration
software to select the configuration specific to the EtherCAT node from the device
description file.
During initialisation, the product code is transferred to the master. Based on this
identification, the master can accept the corresponding settings from the device
description.
