Overview
1. Overview
Figure 1 Block circuit dia ram
The ECS-PCIe/1100 is a simple EtherCAT slave interface for PCs.
The PC board is desi ned for PCI Express slots. It features an EtherCAT slave usin 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 mana ers. The ET1100 ESC address space is directly mapped to
the PCIe address space.
The ECS-PCIe/1100 inte rates 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
CANopen over Ethernet (CoE), File over EtherCAT (FoE) and Ethernet over EtherCAT (EoE) to
communicate with the PC.
Confi uration is done by EtherCAT master. A sample device description file (XML) is provided.
The ECS-PCIe/1100 is an ideal startin point to product development with the esd EtherCAT Slave
Stack (see chapter 5.4).

Hardware Installation
3. Hardware Installation
Read the safety instructions at the beginning of this document carefully,
before you start with the hardware installation!
Danger!
Electric shock risk. Never carry out work while power supply volta e is switched on!
Attention !
Electrostatic discharges may cause damage to electronic components.
To avoid this, please perform the followin steps before you touch the ECS-
PCIe/1100, in order to dischar e the static electricity from your body, :



Switch off the power of your computer, but leave it connected to the mains until
you have dischar ed yourself.
Please touch the metal case of the computer now to dischar e yourself.
Furthermore, you should prevent your clothes from touchin the computer,
because your clothes mi ht be electrostatically char ed as well.
Procedure
1. Switch off your computer and all connected peripheral devices (monitor, printer, etc.).
2. Dischar e your body as described above.
3. Disconnect the computer from the mains.
If the computer does not have a flexible mains cable, but is directly connected to mains,
disconnect the power supply via the safety fuse and make sure that the fuse cannot switch
on a ain unintentionally (i.e. with caution label).
Danger!
Never carry out work while power supply volta e is switched on!
4. Open the case.
5. Insert the ECS-PCIe/1100 board into the selected PCIe slot. Carefully push the board down
until it snaps into place.
6. Close the computer case a ain.
7. Connect the EtherCAT interfaces via the connectors in the front panel of the ECS-PCIe/1100.
8. Connect the computer to mains a ain (mains connector or safety fuse).
9. Switch on the computer and the peripheral devices.
10. End of hardware installation.
11. Set the interface properties in your operatin system. Refer to the documentation of the
operatin system.
