1.1 SI-Xx08 Introduction
Thank you for purchasing our SI-Xx08 Industrial EtherCAT Slave I/O
Modules which supports EtherCAT protocol. EtherCAT (Ethernet Control
Automation Technology) which is developed by BECKHOFF Automation is
a high-performance Ethernet-based fieldbus industrial network system. This
protocol which is standardized in IEC standard IEC61558 is suitable for
real-time automation applications.
All EtherCAT Slave I/O Modules can be connected by the network topologies
such as star, line, or ring. Our SI-Xx08 I/O modules are installed by daisy
chain connection which has the flexibility in devices installation and reduces
the costs of infrastructure and operations. For the power requirements, the
SI-Xx08 modules are designed for standard industrial unregulated 24 VDC
Power input. However, they accept any power unit that supplies power within
the range of +9 to +48 VDC. All the I/O modules have the isolated input and
output design which protects SI-Xx08 I/O modules against external
interference and environment. The EtherCAT Slave Controller has passed and
has been verified by the conformance test tool. The qualified EtherCAT
Master can connect with SI-Xx08 modules easily and can be applied for
various applications.
