EtherCAT Protocol Toolbox

Schematic Editor components available through the EtherCAT Protocol Toolbox

The EtherCAT Protocol Toolbox is an additional toolbox that contains components that mimic the communication layers in EtherCAT applications. By simulating the communication layer of your high-fidelity model, you can minimize the risk of related issues during the deployment phase.

Please refer to the EtherCAT Slave Device documentation for a detailed description of the full capabilities of the EtherCAT Protocol toolbox.

The EtherCAT Slave Component is available through the Schematic Editor Library Explorer in Communication/EtherCAT/.

To check the models available in another toolbox, please refer to the Schematic Editor Toolboxes documentation.
