Installation GRT1-ECT and Units
This section contains the procedures for installing the GRT1-ECT Unit and SmartSlice I/O Units.
When installing the EtherCAT Communication Unit and the SmartSlice I/O Units, observe the following
handling precautions
•
Always turn OFF the power supply to the EtherCAT Communication Unit, the SmartSlice I/O Units
and the external I/O, before mounting or dismounting a Unit or connecting or disconnecting cables.
•
Do not connect or disconnect the EtherCAT Communication Unit’s communication cable while the
EtherCAT network is operational. Short-circuits or poor contacts in the EtherCAT cable may prevent
normal communication.
•
Ensure that the power supplies for the EtherCAT Communication Unit and the SmartSlice I/O Units
and the external I/O are wired correctly.
•
Provide separate conduits or ducts for the I/O and communication lines to prevent noise from
high-tension lines or power lines.
The SmartSlice I/O system is installed and set up as an EtherCAT Slave. The EtherCAT
Communication Unit’s communication connector connects to the Master Unit through an EtherCAT
communication cable. Up to 64 SmartSlice I/O Units can be connected to one GRT1-ECT Unit.
