The figure below shows an example of PDO mapping.
A sync manager channel consists of several PDOs. The sync manager PDO assignment objects
describe how these PDOs are related to the Sync Manager.
The number of PDOs is given in sub-index 0 of the sync manager PDO assignment table.
In this table, index 1C12 hex is for RxPDOs and 1C13 hex is for TxPDOs.
The figure below shows an example of sync manager PDO mapping.
The PDO mapping of the GRT1-ECT depends on the connected SmartSlice I/O units and is detected
and configured automatically by the GRT1-ECT. The PDO mapping can also be configured by the
connected EtherCAT master. However the written configuration must be equal to the actual
configuration of the GRT1-ECT to start the communication between the EtherCAT master and the
GRT1-ECT.
