Slave Interface for PCs
The ECS-PCIe/1100 is a PC board designed for PCI Express
slots. It features an EtherCAT®
slave using the Ethernet physical layer via two RJ45 Ethernet sockets.The board uses the ET1100 EtherCAT®
slave controller (ESC) ASIC that comes with 8 kBytes memory and 8 EtherCAT® sync managers. The ET1100
ESC address space is directly mapped to the PCIe address space.
Applications
The ECS-PCIe/1100 integrates any PC into an EtherCAT® network and makes it an
EtherCAT® slave node. The PC can act as I/O node. An EtherCAT®
master can use several EtherCAT®
protocols like CoE, FoE and EoE to communicate with the PC.
Configuration and protocols
Configuration accomplished through the EtherCAT® master.
esd provides a sample device description file (XML).
Software Support
Device drivers for Windows and Linux are available. Drivers
for other operating systems, especially realtime-OS, are available on request.
For application development, esd offers a slave API library as well as sample
code.
