EtherCat - and Datalogger

Hi, 

I would like to use Ipemotion software for receiving and analysing data from the sensors. System has possibility to perform as Ethercat Master. It requires though ENI file (compatible with Beckoff).

The quesiton is how to generate such file for Rexroth EtherCat configuration?

Hi tturek 

the ENI-file is located at the ctrlX CORE in the Active Configuration. At "Manage app data" -> "EtherCAT Master" -> "config" -> "<instancename>" -> ethercat.xml.

The generation of this file is done by the software ctrlX IO Engineering. For first steps with the ctrlX IO Engineering see this video on YouTube. 

Best regards, 

Nick
