Note!
The setting of breakpoints in the PLC task assigned to the EtherCAT bus is
permissible.
Please observe:
• When reaching a breakpoint this task will be stopped.
• No new setpoints are calculated (Motion drives come to a standstill), no
deceleration ramp is generated.
• The control still sends EtherCAT frames. After restarting the PLC task, the
interrupted processing is resumed.
• Motion drives continue the interrupted motion, no acceleration ramp is
generated.

Detailed information on breakpoints can be found in the documentation/online
help for the »PLC Designer«.
