EtherCAT function libraries
The SM_Ethercat.lib and AtEm.LIB function libraries contain function blocks and functions
that are required for the creation of your »PLC Designer« project.
These function blocks and functions support:
The setting and reading of the master/slave states;
The network management;
The network diagnostics;
The upload and download of CoE parameters.

Usability
The SM_Ethercat.lib and AtEm.LIB function libraries are integrated in the following target
systems:
L-force Logic x700 from version 6.x
L-force Motion x700 from version 6.x
Via the Library manager of the »PLC Designer« you can integrate the function libraries into
the »PLC Designer« project. They can be found in the library directory of the corresponding
target system in the subdirectory "EtherCAT".
Note!
The integration of the SM_EthercatDrive.lib function library into a »PLC
Designer« project is not required, as the function blocks and the functions of this
library are not relevant.
In the course of this chapter only the function blocks and functions required for
the creation of a »PLC Designer« project are described.
