PLCnext as EtherCat Master

asier

Good morning,

I have seen a couple discussions in the forum about PLCnext and Ethercat, but there are 1 or 2 years old, so I would like to know if there is some update on this subject.

Apart from Codesys, is there any other way to use the PLCnext controllers as an EtherCat Master? Or at least, is it in the roadmap for future firmware updates?

Thanks in advance,

Best regards,

Asier

Unfortunately Ethercat communications has not been implemened in the PLCnext Control firmware yet, and there are no updates on when this might happen (sorry).

Hi

Are there any news about Ethercat master on PLC next? Is it on the roadmap?

No, sorry, still no news about a possible Ethercat master for PLCnext Control devices.
