STATE LED
Near the EtherCAT Connector A there is a STATE LED that can be in one of the following situations:
State | Slave Condition | Communication |
---|---|---|
Off |
Init |
After switch-on the EtherCAT slave is in the Init state. No SDOor PDO communication is possible. |
Blinking |
Pre-Operational |
In Pre-Operational state SDO communication is possible, but not PDOcommunication. |
Single Flash |
Safe-Operational |
In Safe-Operational state SDOand PDO communication is possible, although the slave keeps its outputs (RPDO) in a safe state, while the input (TPDO) data are updated cyclically. |
On |
Operational |
In the Operational state the slave copies the output data of the masters to its outputs (RPDO). PDO PDO and SDO communication is possible. |
