Customize the amount of Process Data in SAFEX C.15

Hi all!
In the older SafeLogic SLc I could customize input/output process data and I used only 12 input byte/12 output byte (Sercos): for me was sufficent.
Now I have a TwinCat project with only one SAFEX C.15 (EtherCat slave) and in the Process Data obtain already 66 output byte/46 input byte. Is possible customize the process data to reduce exchange input/output bytes?
Thanks in advance.

Hello Nova ,

The process data is broken up into three sections:

  • FSoE connections (data length depends on number of FSoE devices)
  • Safe-Master-to-Master (SMMC, data length fixed)
  • Functional Data (SAFEX information (status, diagnostics) plus user inputs/outputs to EtherCAT Master, data length fixed)

Here is an example with three FSoE Connections.

  • Slave_Process_Data_Modules = SMMC
  • Slave_Process_Data_Modules_1 = Functional Data
