[ECAT Setup in IDE4]

Attached is an image.

I was able to select the amplifier from the pulldown.

There are 3 copies of Omron there....I never really understood that.

Here are pictures of the amplifier screen.

[ECAT Setup in IDE4]

I have a CK3M with 1S servo and am trying to configure an EtherCat connection using IDE4.2.1.19

I am able to scan the network, setup the connection, transfer to the CK3M, and finally activate the EtherCat network without errors. Good.

 

Next I try to setup the motor, which starts out good, but when I get to the Hardware interface screen I get a bunch of Hardware Mismatch listings for Command signal channel, Amplifier Enable Signal Output Channel, Amplifier Fault Signal Input Channel, and Primary Feedback Channel, where I should instead be able to set the PDO variables that contain my data.

 

Any idea what to do here?

I haven't found any walkthrough/guides for ECAT config on IDE4. Is anything available?

 

Many Thanks,

Doug
